Fix Recommendation

Follow steps in section 11.8 - Management Interface Security in the JBoss_Enterprise_Application_Platform-6.3-Administration_and_Configuration_Guide-en-US document.

1. Create an outbound connection to the LDAP server.
2. Create an LDAP-enabled security realm.
3. Reference the new security domain in the Management Interface.

Check Contents

Log on to the OS of the JBoss server with OS permissions that allow access to JBoss.
Using the relevant OS commands and syntax, cd to the <JBOSS_HOME>/bin/ folder.
Run the jboss-cli script.
Connect to the server and authenticate.

To obtain the list of security realms run the command:
"ls /core-service=management/security-realm="

Review each security realm using the command:
"ls /core-service=management/security-realm=<SECURITY_REALM_NAME>/authentication"

If this command does not return a security realm that uses LDAP for authentication, this is a finding.
