Anonymous user tracking between EAR's

We have a requirement where we need to use Anonymous user tracking(AUT) across two EARS in the same domain. Currently AUT generates seperate user id as the user navigates between the two EARS. Is there any way to restrict creation of multiple user ids, when the user navigates between EARS?
Thanks

This works for me. I was able to set my delete interval down to two hours. Make sure the NMSROOT/campus/etc/cwsi/ut.properties file, and make sure casuser can write to this file. The property that controls the main UT end host aging is UTAgeTime.
A major acquisition looks at all devices in Campus and acquires all users connected to them. Minor acquisitions look at the devices that have changed since the last Campus Data Collection, and only collects end hosts from them.

Doesn't close properly the anonymous user's session.

Hello experts.
We are implementing the anonymous user in Portal, according to the following link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/1e/e19f58136e654d9709befa464314f2/frameset.htm
We have used the notes: 709354, 837898 and 728106
And the only problem we found and we couldn't solve is when the anonymous user navigate between links, Portal is trying to close the session anonymous without success, showing each click an Error like this:
" Run-time Error Portal
Exception processing application, send your exception ID Portal Administration
11:07 20/01/100517_4300950 exception ID
More details on this exception in the corresponding protocol file "
We haven't found useful information in the default trace.
For this we implemented the note "755947 - Session Release Agent - Guest Access" note but still unresolved.
Any advice would be helpful.
Best regards.
Ernesto

Hi Ernesto.
You need to activate logging and tracing on Session Release Agent (refer to SAP Note 596698), then post an information relevant for Session Release Agent here.
Best regards,

P.S.: Do you use a FQDN?

Can anonymous user take part in campaign?

Hi all,
I would like to show a campaign for users that doesn't login to portal.
But it seems that if I use "It is after a given date" condition in the
campaign. The campaign will not display the searched image to web, and I
try to use user profile properties for checking, which will work in
content selector only but not for campaign.

Suggestions:
1. Make sure you have an Event firing which would trigger the campaign.
(DisplayContentEvents do not trigger campaigns, although
DisplayCampaignEvents and clicks event should). Just putting a "The Date
is after..." clause in a rule won't cause the campaign to magically fire
after that date; you need to have an event from a user be fired (see
http://e-docs.bea.com/workshop/docs81/doc/en/portal/buildportals/P13NInteractionMgmt.html
or Building Portal Applications|Developing Applications|Developing
Interaction Management in the workshop help).
2. Make sure the start and stop date are big enough (in IDE and/or
adminportal).
3. Make sure the campaign active (in IDE and/or adminportal).
4. If you're using campaign goals, make sure those haven't been reached
or clear them out.
5. Turn on debug for campaigns and see what's going on. Create a file
debug.properties file in the directory where the server starts
(typically the domain directory), and put in:
usePackageNames=true
com.bea.campaign: on
Restart the server and do whatever you need to do to trigger the
campaign. Debug messages should get printed to the server console window
if the campaign service is being triggered.

Developing Interaction Management in the IDE help, or
http://e-docs.bea.com/workshop/docs81/doc/en/portal/buildportals/taskEnableTAU.html),
but not against fully anonymous users.
Segments and selectors (i.e. <pz:div> and <pz:contentSelector>) work
against any type of user.

Keep track of the shopping cart for anonymous user

Hi,
I have the following problem on b2c site. Anonymous user can browse through the site and adds items to the shopping cart. At the checkout the login page is prompted, however login page is located on the different application server where the actual login happening. After that control is returned to my server where I need to create login object and associate the shopping cart with it. My problem is how to maintain shopping cart without losing it.
I came with that solution : On checkout attach shopping cart to context object with unique key, then pass this unique key to the remote server, then remote server passes it back to me together with the login id, then I create new session and attach shopping cart to it after retrieving shopping cart from the context.
I hope it will work, however I think there is a standard solution for this type of the problems. Any ideas, hints, suggestions are strongly appreciated.
We use WebLogic 9.0 and Servlets.

Do you have a problem keeping track of the shopping cart for a user who is logged in? No, I didn't think so. So give the anonymous user an internal name, just for your own convenience. Then keep track of the shopping cart for the user with that name. You already know how to do that.

Anonymous Users can see pages and files only about 10 minutes

We have set Anonymous access permission to an KM repository. After the portal restarting very strange things are happen. An user who belongs to the Anonymous Users group can see and open pages (created by WPC), files and hyperlinks. But after about ten minutes of such browsing a login screen begins to appear. Since that time the user canu2019t see and open any file of the repository.
We have accurately read and applied recommendations of the Note 837898 - How to configure anonymous CM access.
All URL Generator Service properties are exactly satisfied recommended values (e.g. /irj/go/*).
We have granted Read permissions to all required repositories and recourses for Everyone and Anonymous Users groups (checked End User fieled as well).
The site navigation structure and pages have been developed by mean of Web Page Composer (WPC).
Security Zone (no safety) of WPC has been set with Read permission of Everyone and Anonymous Users groups.
How to work around this?

This behavior occurs then we click link inside pages generated in WPC. After that the anonymous see the login screen.

What do you mean? Between ten and twenty minutes an anonymous user lost the ability to access any pages generated in WPC, any file contained in the portal, any XML Forms generated by XML Forms Builder (e.g. the News XML pages).
> Does the timeout occur if the user does not navigate anywhere in the portal?
I'm not sure we didn't check. It's most likely that after a number previews of the pages it happens.
> Does the timeout occur with only KM and not WPC?
>
Again between ten and twenty minutes an anonymous user lost the ability to access any pages generated in WPC, any file contained in the portal, any XML Forms generated by XML Forms Builder (e.g. the News XML pages).
Please read the following clarification of our situation.
During setting up access of anonymous user to Web Page Composer pages we need to use Web Content repository that is not in the Documents repository.
As is in the note 837898 there are no prefixes for WPC pages in the URL Generator Service.
So the an anonymous user get login screen then attempt to access any WPC pages of the Web Content repository.
How to achieve that content in the Web Content repository get as Content Link property the value '/irj/go/km/docs/wpccontent/u2026', rather than '/irj/servlet/prt/prtroot/...'?
> It almost sounds like the user's logonticket has expired after 10 minutes.

As far as I know an anonymous user doesn't provided with logon ticket at all. You can check this in the SDN SAP Help.

How to view a BI query with anonymous user in the portal

<b>Hi Gurus,</b>
Does anybody knows how to view a BI query in the portal with anonymous user?
Cause when i try to view a query the portal always ask for authentification. And i don't want to sign with a user cause my portal is for everybody and if the user logged in it shows the roles that previously were assigned.
I have the Netweaver 2004 with SP9
<b>Thank you Very Much</b>

do you have sso configured between portal and BW server, if yes the authentication pop up should not come.
if you dont want to do sso between portal and bw server and still want to logon to BW query with anonymous user,
in you bw server go to transaction sicf and navigate to DEFAULT_HOST->SAP->BW->BEX and double click on bex node in the resulting window, log on details section provide a default userid/password

SSO (SPNego) Configured, but Anonymous user´s page doesn´t work

Hello,
I configured Single Sign-On between Portal and windows using SPNego (working OK) but when we try to connect to Portal using anonymous user I ca´n´t do it ( my pc user is automatically loged), Any idea to filter the anonymous user?
Kind regards

Hi,
What you need to do is create an alias of the server on the DNS.
Example:
http://portal.client.com:50000 is the normal portal access with SPNEGO. You have set the SPN to this server (setspn) to use SPNEGO
On the DNS you need to create another alias to the same server but you don't map it to the SPN user.
http://portalNOSPNEGO.cliente.com:50000
As it is not mapped to use kerberos... it won't use the SSO.
If you want to access anonymous user or with any other user on your domain you will access the new portal URL http://portalNOSPNEGO.client.com:50000
There is a problem accessing this with IE6.0.. it might appear a Windows popup authentication window. In order to get rid of this.. you have to change the Internet Explorer Security Level.
Option a) Include the portalNOSPNEGO site on the Trusted Sites. On the security level of the trusted sites select "Anonymous Logon". Include the portal.client.com site on the Intranet Sites... the security level of this sites should be "Authentication only on Intranet Sites"
Option b)Upgrade to IE 7.0
For the external users that have nothing to do with your domain..
Option a)the security level for the Internet sites should be "Anonymous Logon".... or
Option b)Uncheck de Integrted Windows Authentication
Option c)Upgrade to IE7.0

LMS 4.2 user tracking

Hello,
I have a problem with LMS 4.2 user tracking.
When I generate a report on all my network all mac address are ok but there is no Hostname/Ip address in the result, except for 2 equipments.
the only difference between these 2 equipements and the rest of the network is that they are connected on a not routed vlan. All the other phones, computers are connected on a routed vlan.
I have a Nexus 5k as core and 2960 as access. Routing between vlans is done with the Nexus
My DNS server is ok and reachable
Here is a screenshot of the report attached.
Thanks for your help

Yes, the Nexus 5000 series has a few issues with LMS (and other things). Among them is the non-support of User Tracking. I'm told it's a MIB variable issue but it's been the case for some time now and remains so with the current LMS release.
Here is the reference from the Supported Devices Table which states in part:
The following features are not supported:
User Tracking (Nexus 1K, 4K, 5K and 7K with FEX), VLAN Management, VRF Lite, LANE Management

Anonymous User Overview

Hi,
We currently have a portal with several registered users but would like to grant access to guests to give them a 'read only' view of the portlal. I've heard of the anonymous user which sounds like the ideal thing but can't find an overview of how the anonymous user works.
Search results just reveal methods that can be used and what level of content personalisation a tracked anonymous, untracked anonymous.... users get. Could anyone point me in the right direction for info on how to set up the login, web.xml etc.
Users currently log in using
<form method="POST" action="j_security_check" name="login">
How would an anonymous user log in?
Thanks in Advance,
Alex.

Why would you need your anonymous user to login?
If you are running in streaming mode, you could entitle certain portlets to the "anonymous" role, which is a built-in role. Those portlets would only show for anonymous users. Other portlets can be entitled to specific roles that you create, or to the OOTB "Authenticated user" role.
Hope this helps.

>> Device Center > Troubleshooting Workflow
The fact that you have success for usertracking does not mean you server receives mac address notification traps. It only means the passive usertracking has run. The UT results from the other switch may come from this process.
>> Yes you're right.
Only via snoop or packetcapture you can be sure you receive the traps you want.

Also if you look at the Collection Sumary in the Inventory -> Device Status dashboard you may find that some devics fail on usertracking.

WPC - Anonymous User Error

Hello,
I have some problems with displaying the site content for the anonymous user.
First, I specify that I've done all the steps provided as a solution in this thread: [Web page composer and end user;
Some of the containers from a web page are showed correctly but some are displaying the following error message:
"Cannot render container : com.sap.engine.lib.xml.util.NestedException: Function with name 'wpc:getHrefValue' not found in context library."
This container uses a Simple Link List - template and as a link item contains an external link; so trying to trace the error I saw that xsl file corresponding to the template calls a method 'wpc:getHrefValue' for displaying the hyperlink value and for unknown reasons this is not available for the anonymous user.
The same thing happens if the template uses an internal link and brings the error:
"Cannot render container : com.sap.engine.lib.xml.util.NestedException: Function with name 'wpc:getWebDavAccess' not found in context library." refering to the getWebDavAccess method.
The par file containing the xslt helpers should be visible to everyone so the only thing it can represent is the way the "wpc:" call is made - which I couldn't track it.
Please tell me if you have any clues on this issue.
Thanks,
Ioana

Hello Ioana,
May I enquire which SP of WPC you are on ?
Just out of curiosity as I keep getting an authentication pop up despite assigning read user access to anonymous users group.
Did you come across a similar problem ?

User Tracking delete interval

CM User Tracking delete interval what is the diff between "End Host Table" and " History Table "? also these option can't be set lower than "7" days? I want delete the entery more than 2 days old and I want to keep only the latest entery. but the number back to "7" days by itself. any idea? and what's exactly the diff between Major acqustion and minor acqustion? Thanks!

This works for me. I was able to set my delete interval down to two hours. Make sure the NMSROOT/campus/etc/cwsi/ut.properties file, and make sure casuser can write to this file. The property that controls the main UT end host aging is UTAgeTime.
A major acquisition looks at all devices in Campus and acquires all users connected to them. Minor acquisitions look at the devices that have changed since the last Campus Data Collection, and only collects end hosts from them.

Is a session created for an anonymous user?

Hi all
Does the JEE server create a session even when an anonymous user accesses the server? Does he get a session Id? Do I have to setup the server to track anonymous users?
Thank you.

Lakshminarayanan.V

Hi,
>Does the JEE server create a session even when an anonymous user accesses the server?
Yes. The anonymous user has the user ID J2EE_GUEST by default.
>Does he get a session Id?
Yes.
>Do I have to setup the server to track anonymous users?
Depends on your use case.

Grant read permission on List for Anonymous user for public facing site in Sharepoint 2013 Online

I have a public facing SP site ( SP online 2013 with Office 365 ). There are certain app parts added to it which read data from a
custom list created on that site. By default anonymous users do not have read permissions list. I want users to see the list data without login in . I tried modifying the settings for anonymous users , however I am unable to do it as the "anonymous user"
permissions cannot be checked by me.
How do I provide read permissions to anonymous users?
Thanks in advance

once you make the web site online anonymous users get the read access to list.
You can add the list view webpart and show the details to anonymous users. In the below link i have added the announcement list view webpart to a page.
