  • 1.  IBM MQ Web Console SSO option

    Posted 6 days ago

    Does IBM MQ Web Console Explorer allows Single Sign On ( sso). Has anybody tried this?

    Yes, we configured our IBM MQ Web Console with SSO against an IdP (dex) in the mqwebuser.xml like this:

        <server>
          <featureManager>
              <feature>openidConnectClient-1.0</feature>
          </featureManager>
          <variable name="httpHost" value="*" />
          <variable name="httpPort" value="9080" />
          <logging consoleLogLevel="INFO"/>
          <enterpriseApplication id="com.ibm.mq.console">
            <application-bnd>
              <security-role name="MQWebAdminRO">
                 <group access-id="OurMqWebActiveDirectoryRoleName"/>
              </security-role>
            </application-bnd>
          </enterpriseApplication>
          <openidConnectClient id="mqwebClient"
            clientId="mq-web"
            clientSecret="ourMqWebSecret"
            authorizationEndpointUrl="https://dex.our.domain/dex/auth"
            tokenEndpointUrl="http://dex.our.domain:5556/dex/token"
            issuerIdentifier="https://dex.our.domain/dex"
            jwkEndpointUrl="http://dex.our.domain:5556/dex/keys"
            userInfoEndpointUrl="http://dex.our.domain:5556/dex/userinfo"
            signatureAlgorithm="RS256"
            groupIdentifier="groups"
            scope="openid profile email groups"
            httpsRequired="false">
          </openidConnectClient>
        </server>

    I have not tried against Okta, but I am pretty sure that Okta implements OpenIDConnect correctly as well.
