Oracle Access Manager

Target system versions supported / tested

Bravura Security Fabric uses the agtnetpoint connector to manage passwords on an Oracle Access Manager server using the userservcenter CGI. The connector also uses the LDAP connector (agtldap) to list Oracle Access Manager users using Access Manager’s LDAP or Microsoft Active Directory back-end.

Connector status / support

Customer-Verified

Clients may contact Bravura Security support for assistance with this connector. Troubleshooting and testing must be completed in the client's test environment, as Bravura Security does not maintain internal test environments for the associated target system.

Oracle Access Manager was previously named Oblix NetPoint.

The following Bravura Security Fabric operations are supported by this agent:

  • user verify password

  • administrator verify password

  • user change password

  • administrator reset password

Targeting Oracle Access Manager

For each Oracle Access Manager server, add a target (Manage the system > Resources > Target systems):

  • Type is Oracle Access Manager .

  • Address uses the following settings:

    • Server DNS name.

    • Base DN The root context under which Bravura Security Fabric performs operations.

    • Full URL for NetPoint userservcenter.cgi The full URL (HTTP or HTTPS) for the Oracle Access Manager userservcenter.cgi program. All slashes (/) in the URL must replaced with the pound (#) character.

    • Port Port number to connect to.

    • Script file The filename of a script that sets additional attributes. The script must exist in the \ <Program Files path>\Bravura Security\Bravura Security Fabric\<instance>\ script\ directory.

      A sample script, agtldap-netpoint.cfg is contained in the samples\* directory. If you cannot find the sample file, try re-running setup to modify your installation. Sample files are automatically installed only with complete installations. You can select them in custom installations.

      Note that any sample script may need customizations in order to work with your system.

      See LDAP Attribute scripts to learn how to write this script file.

      The address is entered in the syntax:

    <DNS Name>/basedn=<dn>/cgiurl=<URL>[/port=<N>][/script=<scriptname>]

  • Enter the ID and password for the LDAP administrator in the Administrator ID field. Be sure to enter the fully qualified name for the LDAP administrator ID.

    This identity is used by the LDAP connector (agtldap) to communicate with the backend for listing operations. Do not select the Is this an additional system password? checkbox.

  • Configure a second target system administrator to allow Bravura Security Fabric to authenticate to the server using agtnetpoint .

    This identity is used for verify/change/reset/unexpire password operations. Ensure that you do select the Is this an additional system password? checkbox for this administrator.

The full list of target parameters is explained in Target system options .

Attributes

After a password reset, the obpasswordcreationdate attribute is updated with the current time using the UTC date/time format, and the obpasswordchangeflag attribute is set to false to ensure that the user is not required to change his password at the next login.
