App Server Page Field Index

This table describes the fields relevant to configuring app servers for external security. Other fields are described in these sections:

Field

Description

Authentication

Specifies what type of credentials MarkLogic Server should expect from the end user.

Internal Security

Specifies whether MarkLogic Server should use the Security database for authentication and authorization.

External Securities dropdown

Specifies the name of the external security object that MarkLogic Server should use to externally authenticate this app server.

Note

[LDAP] You can configure your app server for multiple LDAP external security objects:

  1. The LDAP external security objects are used in the order that you list them here.

  2. Once the time specified in Cache Timeout passes for the LDAP server specified in the first external security object, then the one in the next external security object on the list is tried.

Default User

(Authentication = application-level) Specifies the default internal user that MarkLogic Server should automatically log anyone accessing this server in as until that user explicitly logs in.
