Internal Roles and External Roles

In a role-based centralized security implementation, you must create a mapping between the

MDM Hub

internal role and the external role that is managed separately from the

MDM Hub

The name of the external role name might differ from the internal role name used in a

MDM Hub

environment.

Configuration details depend on the role mapping implementation of the security provider. You map roles in a configuration file. You can map one external role to more than one internal role.

Although mappings are often created in XML, there is no predefined format for a configuration file. It might not be an XML file or even a file. The mapping is part of the custom user profile or authentication provider implementation. The purpose of the mapping is to populate a user profile object roles list with internal role IDs.
