JAAS is not relevant if you're using container-managed security. You'll need to set up users in whatever user database your container (WebLogic in your case) provides. Struts also has nothing to do with this -- although you can use role information with tags like <logic:present> or the "roles" attribute on an <action> if you want to.
JAAS would only be relevant if you wanted to do application-managed security instead, or if you were implementing the container itself.
