About this task
Refer to SPNEGO TAI troubleshooting tips for instructions on how to troubleshoot errors that are related to diagnosing Simple and Protected GSS-API Negotiation (SPNEGO) trust association interceptor (TAI) problems and exceptions.
In WebSphere Application Server Version 6.1, a trust association interceptor (TAI) that uses the Simple and Protected GSS-API Negotiation Mechanism (SPNEGO) to securely negotiate and authenticate HTTP requests for secured resources was introduced. This function was deprecated in WebSphere Application Server 7.0. SPNEGO web authentication has taken its place to provide dynamic reload of the SPNEGO filters and to enable fallback to the application login method.
