Set Up Oracle WebLogic Server Authentication

Create an Oracle WebLogic Server record in order to authenticate to an Oracle WebLogic server running on a Unix host. Unix authentication is required so you'll also need a Unix record for the host running the web server.

Which technologies are supported?

For the most current list of supported authentication technologies and the versions that have been certified for VM and PA by record type, please refer to the following article: 

Authentication Technologies Matrix

How do I get started?

- Go to Scans > Authentication.

- Check that you have a Unix record already defined for the host running the web server.

- Go to New > Applications > Oracle WebLogic Server to create an Oracle WebLogic Server record for the same host.

Note: If the Network Support feature is enabled, then the Unix record must have the same network selected as the Oracle WebLogic Server record.

Managers can add authentication records. Unit Managers must be granted the permission: Create/edit authentication records/vaults.

Do you have Tag Support enabled?Do you have Tag Support enabled?

If your subscription has Tag Support for Authentication Records enabled, then you'll see additional options for specifying hosts using asset tags. Choose an asset type and then provide IPs or tags to the record. Your asset type options are: IPs/Ranges, IP Range in Tag Rule and Asset Tags.

For domain level authentication, you can only add assets when the domain type is NetBIOS, User-Selected IPs. The Assets section is disabled when the domain type is NetBIOS, Service-Selected IPs, or Active Directory.  

Asset Type: IPs/Ranges
Use this option to add IP addresses/ranges to the record. Enter the IP addresses/ranges in the field provided.

Asset Type: IP Range in Tag Rule
Use this option to add tags that have IP address ranges defined in the tag rule. All IP addresses defined in the tag rule will be associated with the record, including IPs that don’t already have the tag assigned. Click Add Tag to pick tags to include or exclude. Note that only tags with the dynamic tag rule “IP Address in Range(s)” will be available in the tag selector.

Asset Type: Asset Tags
Use this option to add tags to the record for the assets you want included. IP addresses with the selected tags already assigned will be associated with the record. Click Add Tag to pick tags to include or exclude.

Your record settings

You’ll need to tell us where the server is installed. Then specify a single domain name or use the Auto Discover option (the default setting) and we’ll find all the domains for you.
