      Section: 7.3.1. Migrate Properties-based Authentication and Authorization to Elytron

      There are some issues in section 7.3.1. Migrate Properties-based Authentication and Authorization to Elytron:

      • Procedure in 7.3.1.2. MIGRATE LEGACY PROPERTIES-BASED CONFIGURATION TO ELYTRON uses FORM mechanism for http-authentication-factory but Management Console uses DIGEST mechanism. It means that steps in documentation result to configuration which cannot be used for authentication to Management Console. To fix this, in procedure in 7.3.1.2. MIGRATE LEGACY PROPERTIES-BASED CONFIGURATION TO ELYTRON use
        mechanism-configurations=[{mechanism-name=DIGEST,mechanism-realm-configurations=[{realm-name=RealmName}]}]
        

        instead of

        mechanism-configurations=[{mechanism-name=FORM}]
        

        and update resulting configuration.

      • In procedure for 7.3.1.2. MIGRATE LEGACY PROPERTIES-BASED CONFIGURATION TO ELYTRON there is point 5. with sentence Add the two authentication factories and remove the legacy security realm references. This sentence can be imporved with something like (...) to secure http-interface with Elytron.
