NimbostratusAPM + OAM (11GR1) Installation guide for HTTP Basic Authentication over HTTPS
I can't find a guide that describes how to setup APM with OAM11g and use HTTP Basic authentication (over https). I found the SSO guide and was able to follow the 11g and 10g sequence diagrams and un...
Hi Anthony.
It depends on what part(s) of the OAM tech stack you want to use.
For User Auth only, you can use this guide:
http://www.f5.com/pdf/deployment-guides/big-ip-apm-dg.pdf
Which will provide for HTTP Basic Auth to the user ( the APM login page with username/password ), using OID - Oracle Internet Directory, OAM's LDAP server.
If you want to use APM's Webgate functionality, then you use this guide:
http://www.f5.com/pdf/deployment-guides/oracle-oam-apm-11-dg.pdf
Which gives you both User Auth, and Web Access Control using the full OAM stack with AuthN/AuthZ policies. It is VERY important that you test and verify your OAM polices prior to setting up APM webgate - use a web server with a 10g Webgate agent is highly recommended. You MUST follow the steps in this deployment guide - exactly as outlined, in order, to have a successful deployment.
Good Luck, let us know how it goes !

NimbostratusSo I'm at the stage where we're configuring OAM with APM. Based on some documentation;
I'm trying to configure the F5 to not redirect to the OAM server for authentication (Forms) but to pass the credentials to the OAM server to make the policy decision (HTTP Basic).
Is there a newer version of the above document that applies to 11.4 ?
