5.1.16. Class ServerAuthentication

This class encapsulates server authentication: Vela authenticates the user based on the response of the server to the user's authentication request. Server authentication is a kind of inband authentication, it is performed within the application protocol, but the target server checks the credentials of the user instead of Vela. This authentication method is useful when the server can be trusted for authentication purposes, but you need to include an authorization decision in the service definition.
