## weblogic.management.security.authentication
Interface AuthenticationProviderMBean

All Superinterfaces:
  ProviderMBean

All Known Subinterfaces:
  AuthenticatorMBean, IdentityAsserterMBean, ServletAuthenticationFilterMBean

    public interface AuthenticationProviderMBean

extends ProviderMBean

The base MBean for all MBean implementations that manage Authentication providers. If your Authentication provider uses the WebLogic Security SSPI to provide login services, then your MBean must extend `weblogic.management.security.authentication.Authenticator`. If your Authentication provider uses the WebLogic Security SSPI to provide identity-assertion services, then your MBean must extend `weblogic.management.security.authentication.IdentityAsserter`.

### Deprecation of MBeanHome and Type-Safe Interfaces

In addition to being used as a base class that provides functionality to security provider MBeans, JMX applications can use this class directly as a type-safe interface. When used as a type-safe interface, a JMX application imports this class and accesses it through `weblogic.management.MBeanHome`. As of 9.0, the `MBeanHome` interface and all type-safe interfaces for WebLogic Server MBeans are deprecated. Instead, JMX applications that interact with WebLogic Server MBeans should use standard JMX design patterns in which clients use the `javax.management.MBeanServerConnection` interface to discover MBeans, attributes, and attribute types at runtime. For more information, see "Developing Manageable Applications with JMX" on http://edocs.bea.com.
