F5 APM Oracle Access Manager SSO

Hello Dears,

 

I'm trying to configure SSO for applications that are authenticated using Oracle Access Manager.

 

Here's the flow without F5:

 

1- User connect to a protected resource

 

2- User is redirected to OAM

 

3- User authenticate against OAM using Kerberos

 

4- OAM has a delegation account configured, so it authenticates against active directory to see if user is authorized

 

5- If authenticated, the OAM redirects user again to the Protected Resource

 

• I have been reading a lot of documents from F5 and I reached a conclusion that I need to use active directory as authentication source for initial connection to webtop.. And then use OAM as authentication source for access portals themselves and for SSO.

However I'm way over my head and can't find solid info on how to implement this, I thought of doing kerberos but I'm not actually authenticating against AD using Kerberos, I'm authenticating against OAM..

 

I found this in a document, but in my version (12 and 13) it doesn't exit anymore?? I could have configured an OAM server and its SSO config but I guess this type of configuration is retired (or hopefully under a new name!)

I have also been reading on this document, but it doesn't mention SSO

I'd appreciate it if someone could explain how this requirement could be fulfilled..
