Install a PERMIS decision engine and test it

In order to do this you will need the following components (PERMIS is developed using Java. We assume here that you have Java installed on your machine.)
1. PERMIS RBAC (version 5.0.2). This is the java package you will need for your application to make authorisation decisions. you will need to put this package into a place where java can find it according to the classpath variable of the java runtime environment.
2. The Test Application allows users to test a variety of different types of configurations against a fully functioning PERMIS decision engine. It currently supports both XML and AC policies as well as text and certificate based role attributes. It can also be used to access certificates in an LDAP server and to perform Simple(X.509) signature verification.

From following links, you may find previous releases of PERMIS RBAC and corresponding test applications.

This version of the PERMIS RBAC supports the latest schema which can be found here.

Add-On
1. It would also be helpful if you have already installed and tested the PERMIS Policy Editor, so that you can use it to create test policies for your PERMIS decision engine
