Authentication system
The authentication system determines which parameters are required to authenticate users. Most authentication systems require a user name and password. But some (for example, Windows) do not require a user name. Others require parameters in addition to the user name and password. In these cases, the additional parameters are specified in the Extended Log-on Parameter field.
In summary:
- Basic authentication requires a user name (loginName) and password (loginPW).
- Windows authentication requires no parameters.
- OA Framework authentication requires the extended log on parameter.
OA Framework provides a connection to external authentication systems. Contact the vendor of the authentication system for information on what parameters are required.
In the DirectLink URL, the parameter is displayed as:
