To connect to a custom SSO server, a Java class that implements the AuthenticationHandler interface must be added to the HxGN EAM runtime environment.
The fully qualified name of the AuthenticationHandler interface is com.dstm.mp.businessprocess.base.logon.handlers.AuthenticationHandler.
The interface may be implemented directly or by subclassing a Java class that implements the interface. A class is provided that implements the interface and provides defaults for some of its methods (AuthenticationHandlerImpl).
The AuthenticationHandler interface contains five methods. The most important of these are the two authenticate methods discussed below.
