    you mean the APM module.

     

    in general you login first on the APM module and then it will set a cookie for future requests to it. you then access other websites through the APM and if that sees a website asking for credentials it will provide those you provided earlier to APM.

     

    it will keep different sessions for different users, thereby never mixing them or such.
