In the User name field, enter a valid user name for the scheme. The default property for this field is pyUserName.

=PageName.PropertyName
). -
Click Set password, enter a password that is valid for the user name you provided, and then click Submit. The default property for this field is pyPassword.

In the Realm field, enter the realm of the user account on the server to which you are connecting.
-
In the Host Name field, enter the host name of the server to which the request is being sent.

- Configuring dynamic references to external systems by using the Global Resource Settings feature
When you migrate applications from one server or environment to another, references to the external systems that those applications connect to, such as endpoint URLs and JNDI servers, might change. By using the Global Resource Settings feature, you can set values for these references without hard coding them into your application.
