Abstract
Various systems and methods for domain authentication are described herein. In an example, the method may include detecting a domain from a request of a tenant for access to a farm. The method may also include identifying a presence of a site ID from a database of the farm based on the domain. The method may also include sending an authentication request to a default site or a custom site, the authentication request managed through a site manager based on the identified presence of the site ID in the database of the farm. The method may also include routing traffic from the tenant to the farm in response to satisfaction of the authentication request.
Claims18
A system for domain authentication, comprising:
- a processor;
- a computer-readable storage device storing executable instructions that, in response to being executed by the processor, cause the processor to:
- detect a domain from a request of a tenant for access to a farm;
- identify a presence or absence of a site identifier uniform resource locator (site ID) from a database of the farm, where to be considered present the site ID located on the farm is detected to also link to a network location on a content management system;
- send an authentication request to a default site or a custom site, the authentication request managed through a site manager based on the identified presence or absence of the site ID in the database of the farm;
- and
- route traffic from the tenant to the farm in response to satisfaction of the authentication request, wherein satisfaction of the authentication request is achieved through matching a listing of the domain at the custom site or the default site to the domain from the request of the tenant.
