Conditional policy based authentication manager

[Shailesh Deshpande]

Hello Community gurus,

I am working as an architect in higher ed. We are using CAS for our central authentication. We have several universities under one umbrella and students login using the email address given my unversity. As such students have mye...@univ1.com from one university and mye...@univ2.com from other. Both are authenticated against the same CAS server. We also have the support staff (mye...@mycompany.com) for the universities login through the same CAS server. 

The users credentials are distributed across different active directories and databases. Therefore, we  have a list of authentication handlers. 

When I am using policy based authentication manager, it iterates over all the authentication handlers one by one, and then authenticates the user accordingly.

Is there any way to tell authentication manager which handler to be used based on the user principal. As such, mye...@univ1.com will use AuthHandler1,   mye...@univ2.com will use AuthHandler2, mye...@mycompany.com will use AuthHandler3 etc.

I will appreciate your guidance as it is blocking our systems design.

Thanks and regards

Shailesh

There isn’t. Not without modifying the manager or your handlers.
