Wireless Device ID Session Scheme

Some wireless devices have a unique device identification number. This number is sent as a header variable with any requests for resources. The SPS can use this device ID as a token to refer to session information in the session store.

Because device IDs differ by wireless device vendor, define a device ID session scheme in the server.conf file. This scheme must include the class information and a device_id_header_name directive that is set to the vendor-specific device ID.

The format of the device ID scheme is:

<SessionScheme name="device_id">
class="com.netegrity.proxy.session.DeviceIdSessionScheme"
accepts_smsession_cookies="false"
device_id_header_name="vendor_device_id_header_name"
</SessionScheme>
