To configure trusted applications authentication:
1.
Browse to the Administration Console (
Administration
|
Confluence Admin
).
2.
Choose
Application Links
in the left-hand menu.
3.
Click on the
Configure
link, next to the application link you want to edit.
4.
Select the
Incoming Authentication
tab; all incoming authentications will
be displayed with the
Trusted Applications
tab selected.
5.
The tab will display if the authentication is currently enabled or not.
The trusted applications configuration has the following properties:
°
IP Patterns
: Enter the IP addresses (IPv4) from which Confluence
should accept requests. You can specify a wildcard by using an
asterisk, for example,
192.168.2.*
.
°
URL Patterns
: Enter the URLs that JIRA is allowed to access.
For Confluence this should at least be the following:
/plugins/servlet/streams
/plugins/servlet/applinks/whoami
°
Certificate Timeout (ms)
: Enter the certificate timeout. The default
time is 10 seconds. The timeout is used to prevent replay attacks.
If the second request is 10 seconds after the initial (authorization)
request, it will be rejected. Note that the timeout relies on the clocks
on both servers being synced.
6.

Apply
to save your changes.
