Caching Realm --> General

Tasks Additional Documentation Attributes

Overview

Use this tab to configure the Caching realm. The Caching realm works with the File realm, alternate security realms, or custom security realms to fulfill client requests with the proper authentication and authorization. The Caching realm manages separate caches for users, groups, permissions, access control lists (ACLs), and authentication requests. To use the Caching realm, you need to use Compatibility security. The use of the Caching realm is deprecated in WebLogic Server 7.0.
