System Components and Process Flows

Restriction: This topic applies only when the Enterprise Server feature is enabled.

When a user attempts to access an Enterprise Server feature or application, or when an application attempts to access a controlled resource, Enterprise Server's External Security Facility (ESF) submits a security query to the appropriate ESMs to authenticate or authorize the action.

The illustration below shows the components involved in securing an installation, and the communications between each.
