Certificate Mapping for X.509 Client Authentication Schemes

For the Policy Server to use a certificate to identify a user, it compares the certificate information to a user record in the user directory. A certificate mapping defines how the Policy Server uses the Subject Name from the user certificate to locate a SiteMinder user in a user directory and then authenticate that user.

You can configure certificate mapping for users whose authentication information is stored in a Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle, or LDAP user directory.
