Authentication Chain

Note: this component stores cluster-wide configuration data and is mirrored across all servers in the topology within the the same cluster.

Note: changes to cluster-wide configuration objects are immediately and automatically mirrored across all servers within the same cluster, so offline changes are not supported.

Authentication Chains may be used to define an authentication process where the end-user must present credentials for one or more Identity Authenticators defined in the chain.

The result returned by the last Identity Authenticator evaluated in the chain will be returned.
