Authentication Scheme Type

Drop-down list of authentication scheme templates.

The list contains all authentication scheme templates predefined for use with the Policy Server’s authentication libraries.

Protection Level

Level between 1 and 1000.

Protection levels provide an additional measure of flexibility in access control.

Note: Authentication schemes have a default protection level that can require change. Be sure to note protection levels as you define your schemes and assign them to realms. High protection levels are recommended for critical resources, while lower-level schemes are recommended for commonly accessible resources.
