Add Roles to a SiteMinder Policy

When a user who has been assigned the appropriate access role tries to access a protected resource, the SiteMinder Policy Server verifies that the user has been assigned the access role, and then fires the rules included in the policy to see if the user is allowed to access the resource.

To add access roles to a SiteMinder policy

1. In the SiteMinder Policy dialog, click the Users tab.

   The Users tab contains tabs for each user directory and Identity Manager environment included in the policy domain.

2. Select the Identity Manager Environment that contains the roles you want to add to the policy.
3. Click the Add/Remove button.

   The SiteMinder Policy Identity Manager Role dialog opens.

4. To add roles to the policy, select an entry from the Available Members list and move it to the Current Members list.
5. Click OK to save your changes and return to the SiteMinder Policy dialog.
