How To Customize CA Identity Manager Authentication

When not using CA SiteMinder, CA Identity Manager provides its own user authentication. You can customize this authentication scheme by adhering to the following process:

  1. Modify the JSP-based login page credential form to suit your authentication requirements.
  2. Write a module in Java that extends the AuthenticationModule interface so that it implements your changes to the login page.
  3. Configure the Java class name and the login page name through the Management Console.
