Enable the OpenID Plug–in

The OpenID plug-in is referenced in the SPS defaultagent configuration file (webagent.conf). The plug-in is required to let agents communicate with an OpenID provider and communicate the OpenID provider authentication response to the Policy Server.

Contact agent owners and instruct them to enable the required plug-in.

Follow these steps:

1. Log in to the cloud host system.
2. Open the SPS defaultagent configuration file in the following directory:

   <sps home>/proxy-engine/conf/defaultagent

   Where <sps home> specifies the SPS installation path.

3. Uncomment line that loads the OpenID plug–in.

   LoadPlugin = path_to_OpenIDPlugin
   

   Example:

   #LoadPlugin="/opt/CA/secure-proxy/agentframework/bin/OpenIDPlugin.so
   

4. Save the file.
5. Restart the SPS.
