How to: Configure the Security Token Manager for a Custom Security Token

After a security token manager has been created for a custom XML security token, it must be configure to specify the security token manager that WSE should call when WSE receives a SOAP message that contains a security token not natively supported by WSE.

To configure a security token manager for a custom XML security token

1. Add a <securityTokenManager> Element element to the configuration file for the SOAP message sender.

   The following code example specifies that the security token manager for contoso:Token security tokens is the CustomXmlSecToken.XmlTokenManager type.

   <configuration>
       <configSections>
           <section name="microsoft.web.services3"
                    type="Microsoft.Web.Services3.Configuration.WebServicesConfiguration, Microsoft.Web.Services3, Version=3.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=31bf3856ad364e35" />
       </configSections>
   
       <microsoft.web.services3>
           <security>
               <securityTokenManager>
                  <add localName="Token"
                       type="CustomXmlSecToken.XmlTokenManager, CustomXmlSecToken"
                       namespace="https://www.contoso.com/tokens/customXml"/>
               </securityTokenManager> 
           </security>
       </microsoft.web.services3>
   </configuration>
   

   Note

   Before adding the <securityTokenManager> Element element, the microsoft.web.services3 configuration handler must be registered by using the <section> Element element.
