User Profile
When a user who has not been assigned an administrative role authenticates to the Identity Server, the default view is their own User Profile.
In this view the user can modify the values of the attributes particular to their personal profile. The attributes displayed in the User Profile view can be extended. For more information on adding customized attributes for objects and identities, see the Identity Server Developer’s Guide.
The user profile attributes are as follows:
First Name. This field takes the first name of the user. (The First Name value and the Last Name value identify the user in the Currently Logged In field in the upper right corner of the Identity Server console.)
Last Name. This field takes the last name of the user. (The First Name value and the Last Name value identify the user in the Currently Logged In field in the upper right corner of the Identity Server console.)
Full Name. This field takes the full name of the user.
Password. This field takes the password for the name specified in the User Id field.
Password (Confirm). Confirmation of the password.
Email Address. This field takes the email address of the user.
Employee Number. This field takes the employee number of the user.
Telephone Number. This field takes the telephone number of the user.
Home Address. This field can take the home address of the user.
User Status. This option indicates whether the user is allowed to authenticate through Identity Server. Only active users can authenticate through Identity Server. The default value is Active. Either of the following can be selected from the pull-down menu:
- Active – The user can authenticate through Identity Server.
- Inactive – The user cannot authenticate through Identity Server, but the user profile remains stored in the directory.
Account Expiration Date. If this attribute is present, the authentication service will disallow login if the current date and time has passed the specified Account Expiration Date. The format for this attribute is as follows:
(mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm)
User Authentication Configuration. This attribute sets the authentication method for the user. The default authentication method is LDAP. One or more authentication methods can be selected by clicking the Edit link. If more than on method is selected, then the user may have to successfully authenticate to all of selected methods.
User Alias List. The field defines a list of aliases that may be applied to the user. In order to use any aliases configured in this attribute, the LDAP service has to be modified by adding the iplanet-am-user-alias-list attribute to the User Entry Search Attributes field in the LDAP service.
Preferred Locale. This field specifies the locale for the user. The default value is en_US.
You can use one of the following attributes in the pull-down menu:
Success URL. This attribute specifies the URL that the user will be redirected to upon successful authentication.
Failure URL. This attribute specifies the URL that the user will be redirected to upon unsuccessful authentication.
Password Reset Options. This is used to select the questions on the forgotten password page. If the user forgets his or her password, the user will access the forgotten password page.
