Hi,

is the Apache JServ Protocol (AJP) supported in this version of the J2EE?

Hi Marcel,

I understand that you are concerned about load balancing / dispatching requests from a web server to an app server. Is that correct?

If so, I'd suggest to have a look at [AS Java Cluster Architecture|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwce10/helpdata/en/2e/611724f410254ca12a3f396ec5ae85/frameset.htm] which deals with these topics in the context of SAP NetWeaver AS Java.

HTH!

No, i'm not looking for load balancing etc. Our reverse proxy is actually an Apache server that also does the SSL termination. When using two-way (client-server) certificate authentication, the AJP protocol can be used to forward the authentication information to other applications.

It would be handy if the NetWeaver AS was able to interper the received authentication rather then having to program something to manipulate it.

SAP Security said no. SAML is the way to go.

I think the standard for the exchange of authentication and authorization is SAML which is supported by NetWeaver CE.
