WSO2 SOA Enablement Server for Java administration console can administer multiple WSO2 SOA Enablement Servers, organized within Security Domains.

A Security Domain is a logical grouping of WSO2 SOA Enablement Servers that uses the same database of identities. After logging in to a security domain, the login name and password are used for authentication to all servers in this domain.

Domains and the servers within them can be added or removed. Their attributes, names and descriptions can be edited. The server add, remove and edit actions are located in the Edit Domain Panel, accessed by clicking on the Detail button next to the security domain you wish to modify. (see Figure 13).
