Registering the FSS Administrative UI

The FSS Administrative UI is an applet-based application that is installed with the Policy Server and is primarily used to manage SiteMinder CA SiteMinder Federation Security Services. For SOA Security Manager it is required to manage objects required to generate WS-Security SAML tokens (affiliates domains, affliliates, and service providers.

You register the FSS Administrative UI with the Policy Server to ensure that communication between both components is FIPS-encrypted (AES encryption).

Note: If you organization is does not need to generate WS-Security SAML tokens (affiliates domains, affliliates, and service providers, you may safely leave the FSS Administrative UI on the Policy Server machine without registering it with the Policy Server.
