Configuring and enabling single sign-on
Available from 9.2.1.
You can now use the
two-factor authentication and use single sign-on to log on to License Metric Tool and maintain login consistency with
other applications in the enterprise. You can configure License Metric Tool to use two-factor authentication with
single sign-on based either on the exchange of Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML 2.0) token
and Microsoft Active Directory Federation Services as
Identity Provider or you can use the IBM® Lightweight
Third-Party Authentication (LTPA) technology and IBM Security
Access Manager for Web as the authentication service.
