products for enabling single sign-on in your infrastructure.
- Configure
the connection to your directory server.

users that will be authenticated with the single sign-on server. You must create at least one
user that has the Administrator role.
Important: Ensure that you select Single Sign-on from the
Authenticated method drop-down list.
- Export the LDAP server SSL certificate embedded in IBM Security Access Manager for Web.
- Configure LTPA single sign-on in License Metric Tool web user interface.
- Import the LTPA keys into IBM Security Access Manager
for Web.
- Import the License Metric Tool server certificate
into IBM Security Access Manager for Web.
- Configure a Virtual Junction in IBM Security Access
Manager for Web.
- Enable single sign-on in License Metric Tool.
- Optional: Update the WebUI shortcut (Windows only)
