Standard User Groups

All installations of SAP NetWeaver Application Server (AS) Java include a set of standard user groups. Some of these groups are defined during installation and some are built in to the system.

Built-In User Groups

Built-in user groups are groups that the user management engine (UME) determines dynamically at runtime. They are not defined in the user data source. The table below lists the built-in user groups.

Built-In User Groups

Group Description

Authenticated Users

Contains all non anonymous users, that is, users that have to authenticate themselves on the AS Java.

Anonymous Users

Contains all named anonymous users that are listed in the ume.login.guest_user.uniqueids property in the UMEproperties.

Everyone (or all)

Contains all the users and groups on the server.

 

You can change the display names and descriptions of the built-in user groups with UME properties. Changing the display name of these groups has no effects on roles already assigned to these groups. You do not have to reassign the roles to the new names.

The Anonymous Users and the Authenticated Users are two mutually exclusive groups. All users belong to one of these two groups. The Everyone group includes all users. The following figure displays the relationship between the built-in user groups.
