Managing Authentication Instances
Chapter

Setting Up End-User Authentication

For information on adding or changing authentication-specific information in the
configuration file, see “Changing the Configuration by Editing the Configuration
File” on page 338.
Deleting an Authentication Instance
You can delete an authentication instance that you no longer need from the CMS
configuration. If you delete an authentication instance, end users will fail to enroll
for certificates using the associated enrollment form. If you want the form to work
with another authentication instance, you must make the appropriate changes to
the form; see “Step 5. Set Up the Enrollment Interface” on page 514.
To delete an authentication instance from the CMS configuration:
1.
Log in to the CMS window (see “Logging In to the CMS Window” on
page 333).
2.
Select the Configuration tab.
3.
In the navigation tree, click Authentication.
The right pane shows the Authentication Instance tab, which lists currently
configured authentication instances.
4.
In the Instance Name list, select the instance you want to delete and click
Delete.
5.
When prompted, confirm the delete action.
The CMS configuration is modified. If the changes you made require you to
restart the server, you will be prompted accordingly. In that case, restart the
server.
Modifying an Authentication Instance
You can modify an authentication instance by editing its configuration parameter
values; you cannot edit the name of an instance. To change the name of an instance,
you need to create a new instance exactly like the instance you want to rename,
except with a new name, and delete the old instance. For details, see “Step 4: Add
an Authentication Instance” on page 509.
