Parameter
service/protectedwebmethods
Short text
Protected Web service functions requiring user authorization
Parameter Description
Protected methods of the Web service interface of the start service. Calling this method requires successful authentication and authorization.
In the simple syntax, you specify all of the methods to be protected, separated by spaces. For example:
service/protectedwebmethods = Start Stop RestartService
In the advanced syntax, you can optionally add individual modules to or remove individual modules from one of four different predefined settings:
[ALL SDEFAULT DEFAULT NONE] + -[method1] + -[method2]… + -[methodN]]
“ALL” protects all methods. “SDEFAULT” protects almost all methods, but still permits an initial display of a system in SAP MMC/MC without authentication. “DEFAULT protects all methods that change the state of the system (but permits, for example, access to traces without authentication). “NONE” does not protect any methods. We recommend the setting “SDEFAULT”.
“SDEFAULT -GetVersionInfo”, for example, protects most methods, but permits the querying of version information without authentication. “DEFAULT +GetVersionInfo”, for example, protects only methods that change the state of the system and also the querying of version information.
