Abstract
Methods and systems for facilitating sign-on procedures in connection with a converged system are provided. An authentication plug-in operates to receive authentication credentials in connection with a request to access an application by a client. The authentication plug-in is capable of operating in different contexts in a converged system. After an initial sign-on, subsequent sign-on requests can be fulfilled by accessing authentication credentials stored in a cache.
