Prerequisites for Using the Federation Gateway

Before you set up the SPS as a federation gateway, consider the following:

• The SiteMinder environment must be configured according to the information in the CA SiteMinder Federation Security Services Guide. Verify that the Policy Server side components for federation are configured.
• Install the SPS and enable the enablefederationgateway setting when prompted.
• In the SiteMinder Policy Server User Interface, be sure to define the host information (server and port number) for the SPS system that generate assertions. The SPS host is defined in the Server field of the appropriate properties dialog for the federated partner you are specifying.
