Agent Type

The Agent Type defines the behavior of an agent. After you have developed a custom agent, you must configure a new Agent Type for the agent in the Policy Server User Interface. For example, if you developed a custom FTP Agent, you would then need to configure an Agent Type for the FTP Agent in the Policy Server User Interface.

Note: For information on configuring an Agent Type for your custom agent, see the SiteMinder Programming Guide for C.
