Introduction
To enable mapped security, configure content security and user security:
-
Content security. Identifies the security type that applies to each document, and checks the Access Control List (ACL) of indexed documents against user security privileges.
- User security. Provides authentication and checks which security privileges users have in Knowledge Discovery and third-party repositories. This includes the retrieval of user group information from a group server.
NOTE: This guide explains how to configure mapped security by editing the Content component and Community component configuration files. If you have installed Knowledge Discovery components in a unified configuration, there is only one configuration file, named IDOLServer.cfg
. The section names remain the same, except that:
- The
[Security]
section in the Community configuration file becomes[UserSecurity]
inIDOLServer.cfg
. - The
[SecurityFields]
section in the Community configuration file becomes[UserSecurityFields]
inIDOLServer.cfg
