You can use this page as a reference for authentication counters properties.

Counter definitions

Table 1. Counter definitions for Security Authentication PMI statistics . The table lists different authentication counter properties along with the following information for each counter: key, ID, description, granularity, type, level, and overhead.
Name Key Description Granularity Type Level Overhead ID
WebAuthenticationCount SecurityAuthenticationStats.webAuthCount The total number of authentications that are processed by the Web Authenticator including Trust Association, Single Sign-On, Custom Login, and Basic authentications. Per authentication CountStatistic Basic Low 1
TAIRequestCount SecurityAuthenticationStats.taiRequestCount The total number of requests for authentication that is processed by all Trust Association Interceptors that are configured. (Note: The TAI might be accessed several times in a single authentication.) Per authentication CountStatistic Extended Low 2
IdentityAssertionCount SecurityAuthenticationStats.idAssertionCount The total number of authentications that are processed when an identity token is presented (normally in certificate chain form). Per authentication CountStatistic Basic Low 3
BasicAuthenticationCount SecurityAuthenticationStats.basicAuthCount The total number of authentications that are processed when a user ID and password are presented. Per authentication CountStatistic Basic Low 4
TokenAuthenticationCount SecurityAuthenticationStats.tokenAuthCount The total number of authentications that are processed when a credential token with user information and an expiration time is presented. Per authentication CountStatistic Basic Low 5
JAASIdentityAssertionCount SecurityAuthenticationStats.jaasIDAssertionCount The total number of authentications that are processed when an identity token not found in the cache is presented. Cache hits can be derived from the difference between IdentityAssertionCount and JAASIdentityAssertionCount. Per authentication CountStatistic Basic Low 6
JAASBasicAuthenticationCount SecurityAuthenticationStats.jaasBasicAuthCount The total number of authentications that are processed when a user ID and password that is not found in the cache are presented. Cache hits can be derived from the difference between BasicAuthenticationCount and JAASBasicAuthenticationCount. Per authentication CountStatistic Basic Low 7
JAASTokenAuthenticationCount SecuirtyAuthenticationStats.jaasTokenAuthCount The total number of authentications that are processed when a credential token not found in the cache is presented. Cache hits can be derived from the difference between TokenAuthenticationCount and JAASTokenAuthenticationCount. Per authentication CountStatistic Basic Low 8
RMIAuthenticationCount SecurityAuthenticationStats.rmiAuthCount The total number of authentications that are processed through connections through IIOP including EJB, Admin, and other RMI authentications. Per authentication CountStatistic Basic Low 9
WebAuthenticationTime SecurityAuthenticationStats.webAuthTime The average response time for authentications. (ms) Per authentication TimeStatistic Basic Medium 10
TAIRequstTime SecurityAuthenticationStats.taiTime The average response time for a TAI request. This time includes the average of all TAIs configured to run. (ms) Per authentication TimeStatistic Extended Medium 11
IdentityAssertionTime SecurityAuthenticationStats.idAssertionTime The average response time for identity assertions. (ms) Per authentication TimeStatistic Basic Medium 12
BasicAuthenticationTime SecurityAuthenticationStats.basicAuthTime The average response time for basic authentications. (ms) Per authentication TimeStatistic Basic Medium 13
TokenAuthenticationTime SecurityAuthenticationStats.tokenAuthTime The average response time for token authentications. (ms) Per authentication TimeStatistic Basic Medium 14
JAASIdentityAssertionTime SecurityAuthenticationStats.jaasIDAssertionTime The average response time for JAAS identity assertion authentications. (ms) Per authentication TimeStatistic Basic Medium 15
JAASBasicAuthenticationTime SecurityAuthenticationStats.jaasBasicAuthTime The average response time for basic JAAS authentications. (ms) Per authentication TimeStatistic Basic Medium 16
JAASTokenAuthenticationTime SecurityAuthenticationStats.jaasTokenAuthTime The average response time for JAAS token authentications. (ms) Per authentication TimeStatistic Basic Medium 17
RMIAuthenticationTime SecurityAuthenticationStats.rmiAuthTime The average response time for authentications that are processed through connections through IIOP including EJB, Admin, and other RMI authentications. (ms) Per authentication TimeStatistic Basic Medium 18
CredentialCreationTime SecurityAuthenticationStats.credTime The average response time for creating a credential when a credential for the subject is not found in the user registry. The time that is required to access the user registry is included. (ms) Per authentication TimeStatistic Extended Medium 19
