The main configuration required for OAuth-based authentication, includes the following:

â– Configuring the source IP Group (client) to authenticate by an OAuth Authorization server
The following provides a step-by-step example of configuring OAuth authentication.
➢ To configure OAuth-based authentication:

and then configure a Remote Web Service to represent the OAuth Authentication server:

connect/token/introspect"

for authenticating the HTTP
POST introspection request
which it sends to the OAuth
server.
'Password' "12abMt" Password that the device
uses for authenticating the
HTTP POST introspection
request which it sends to the
OAuth server.
2. Select the Remote Web Service that you configured in Step 1, click the HTTP Remote Hosts
link located below the table, and then configure an HTTP Remote Host:
