SOA Agent for Oracle WebLogic

• The SOA Agent for Oracle WebLogic is a container-native agent for J2EE application servers that can be used to authenticate and authorize request messages sent over HTTP(S) or JMS transports to JAX-RPC resources hosted on an Oracle WebLogic Server.

The SOA Agent recognizes requests that meet the following criteria as web service requests for SOA Security Manager to handle:

• Agent action—POST; all XML message requests are posted. However, SOA Security Manager also provides two other agent actions, ProcessSOAP and ProcessXML, that allow you to create rules that fire for posted requests according to the XML message format.
• Message MIME type—text/xml by default; configurable using the XMLSDKMimeTypes Agent parameter.
