IBM Tivoli Federated Identity Manager, Version 6.2.2

Configuring WebSphere as point of contact server

Tivoli® Federated Identity Manager can be installed with either an embedded WebSphere® server or into an existing WebSphere environment. When you install the embedded server, and use WebSphere as a point of contact server, the installation automates much of the configuration. When you install into an existing WebSphere environment, and want to use WebSphere as a point of contact server, you must manually configure the WebSphere and IHS servers to fit your deployment.

When configured as a point of contact server, WebSphere provides authentication services. The authentication services are specific to the federation role (identity provider or service provider).
Note: For WebSphere Application Server Version 6.0.2, WebSphere as a point of contact is not supported by Tivoli Federated Identity Manager.
