Configuration of CtxSFDDirCFactTest

This test tracks the claims-based authentication process and alerts administrators to probable delays in the process. This enables administrators to investigate and diagnose the reasons for the delay and promptly initiate measures to pre-empt it.

The default parameters associated with this test are:

• The TEST PERIOD list box helps the user to decide how often this test needs to be executed.

• Specify the IP address of the host for which this test is to be configured in the HOST text box.

• Specify the port number at which the specified host listens to in the PORT text box. By default, this is 443.

• If multiple components of the same component type are awaiting configuration, then an APPLY TO OTHER COMPONENTS check box will appear in this page. Clicking on this check box will allow you to apply the configuration to all/selected components of that type.

• Once the necessary values have been provided, clicking on the UPDATE button will register the changes made.

When changing the configuration for specific servers, a “*” beside the text box corresponding to the parameter signifies that these values have to be manually configured by the user. The parameter values that require to be configured will typically be prefixed with a “$“ or contain a series of “*”. A value of "none" in the parameter value indicates that the corresponding parameter value can be changed if required.
