  • Certificate based Authentication makes use of the Common Name that is available from the certificate's subject and maps to the user account which is managed with the JOC Cockpit. Certificates cannot be used for authentication if the user account indicated by the Common Name has not been added to the Identity Service.
    • When used with two-factor authentication then the certificate's Common Name has to exactly match the user account specified during login and has to be available for the JOC Cockpit.
    • When used with single-factor authentication then the certificate's Common Name has to exactly match a user account available with the JOC Cockpit.
  • Certificates act as a replacement for user accounts and passwords. This can be useful for external scripts and for JS7 jobs that access the JS7 - REST Web Service API and which should not store passwords with their configuration. For example the JS7 - Monitoring interface is provided for external scripts, e.g. for System Monitors, to check availability of JS7 components products on a regular basis. Such scripts can use a certificate that maps to a JOC Cockpit user account with limited permissions to request the health status of JS7 componentsproducts.
