|

<div><p><span><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />Pegasus uses an authentication process to determine
|
|
which users can log into the CIMOM. Unless the <span class="parmname">enableAuthentication</span> property
|
|
of <span class="parmname">cimconfig</span> command is set to false, authentication
|
|
is performed for every connection, before users can access the CIM data.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></span></p>
|
|
<div class="section"><p><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />For Pegasus on i5/OS™, users log in over HTTP or HTTPS,
|
|
using either Basic or Kerberos authentication. In addition for HTTPS they
|
|
have a choice of logging in using certificate-based authentication<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></p>
|
|
<p>When
|
|
logging in, users are authenticated using their <span class="keyword">i5/OS</span> profile,
|
|
or using Enterprise Identity Mapping (EIM). </p>
|
|
<p> In the open source implementation,
|
|
Pegasus maintains a separate access control list (ACL) that allows users to
|
|
sign in using a CIM user profile, which does not necessarily require a corresponding
|
|
profile on the system. In contrast, the <span class="keyword">i5/OS</span> implementation
|
|
of Pegasus requires each user to have a profile in <span class="keyword">i5/OS</span>.
|
|
After the user has been authenticated, a user (or the user's jobs) can have
|
|
access to the providers and CIM schemas managed by the CIMOM.</p>
