OAM 11g Access Tester

Introduction

Oracle Access Manager 11g has an inbuilt Access Tester which we can use to test the connectivity and troubleshoot issues between agent and OAM server.
The beauty of Access Tester is that we can simulate interactions between registered OAM Agent and OAM 11g Servers and it can be run from any computer.

How it works

1) Go to this directory $ORACLE_HOME/oam/server/tester
2) java -jar oamtest.jar

3) GUI window of Access Tester will open up :

4) Enter the below parameters as shown and see the respected output:

1. Server Connection:

IPAddress: IP address where OAM server is running

Port: OAM server port, default is 5575

AgentID: Webgate profile ID, which was given to register the webgate

Click on Connect

2. Protected Resource URI:

Host: It should be same as present in host identifier in oamconsole

Port: It should be same as present in host identifier in oamconsole

Resource: Resource URI which is protected.

Click on Validate

3. User Identity:

Enter the username and password to authenticate the user for the above given resource URI.

4. Test the Authorization of the resource by clicking on Authorize button

In this way you can simulate the access flow from Webgate to OAM server and troubleshoot for any errors.
