Welcome to Oracle WebCenter Interaction Identity Service for LDAP

This book describes how to install and deploy Oracle WebCenter Interaction Identity Service for LDAP 10.3. It also provides instructions for upgrading to Oracle WebCenter Interaction Identity Service for LDAP 10.3 from earlier versions.

Oracle WebCenter Interaction Identity Service for LDAP enables you to import and synchronize users, associated profile information, and groups into the portal from an external LDAP source. User profile information can then be mapped to portal properties and stored in the database. At the time of login, the user's user name and password are passed to the LDAP source for purposes of authentication. This replaces native LDAP authentication.

This guide describes the following installation and setup steps in the order in which you should perform them:

  1. Complete pre-installation procedures.
  2. Install software on the remote server host computer.
  3. Register the remote server with the portal.
  4. Tune configuration for deployment components.
  5. This guide also includes procedures for uninstalling Oracle WebCenter Interaction Identity Service for LDAP software.
