A security realm defines the mechanism for user authentication and authorization. FlexDeploy provides a default internal realm for users, which is based on FlexDeploy database tables for users and groups. FlexDeploy also supports LDAP and SSO based realms for authentication and authorization using an external directory server. You can define multiple LDAP security realms, or one SSO realm. To configure and view the realms, navigate to Realms from the menu or global search. FlexDeploy’s out-of-the-box realm can be utilized alongside external directory servers.

...

Drag and drop ordering of realms is supported to ensure that authentication checks are done in a particular order. If you define multiple realms, users are authenticated against each realm in the specified order until the first successful authentication occurs. Authentication will stop with the first successful authentication against any realm in the list.

Info

If you re-order the realms FlexDeploy server restart is required for changes to take effect.

Tip

FlexDeploy’s internal realm (fdRealm) can be adjusted in the list of realms. FlexDeploy allows customers to adjust the internal realm order (possibly first), which would allow logging in with local users when external directory servers are having issues. For example, if directory servers are having performance issues, logging in with a local user may take a long time. However, if you adjust the internal realm to be first in the list, then you will notice faster login for local users.
