Securing SIP applications

You can apply digest authentication and Trust Association Interceptor (TAI) for a SIP application by applying Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) security to the application.

Before you begin

Before you can apply security, you must first deploy an application that has been developed to support security (with the web.xml file configured for security) and roles. The following software must also be installed:
  1. Install a supported LDAP server. For a list of supported LDAP servers, see the IBM website for WebSphere® Application Server supported hardware, software, and APIs.
    IBM Tivoli Directory Server users can choose IBM Tivoli Directory Server as the directory type for better performance.
    Note: IBM SecureWay Directory Server was renamed to IBM Tivoli Directory Server in WebSphere Application Server version 6.1.
  2. Set up and activate Lightweight Third Party Authentication.
