Security Providers

The default security provider for a new installation is the internal security provider, PTH. The PTH provider implements security using user IDs, passwords, and group memberships stored in the admin.cfg configuration file.

After the initial installation, the Server Administrator that was configured during the installation can start the server and use the Web Console to further customize security settings, for example, to configure alternate or additional security providers, create additional PTH IDs, and register groups and users in a security role. For more information about security providers, see the Server Security chapter in the Server Administration manual.
