Deploy the Federation Web Services Application on a Server

The Web Agent Option pack installs the Federation Web Services (FWS) application. FWS is a required component for SiteMinder legacy and partnership federation.

Configure the FWS application for the sample deployment. This sample deployment uses WebLogic as the application server where you deploy FWS.

To set up FWS

• Install the JDK for Federation Web Services.
• Deploy the FWS application on an WebLogic Application Server.
• Configure the AffWebServices.properties File at the IdP.

Install the JDK for Federation Web Services

The Web Agent Option Pack requires a JDK to run the Federation Web Services application.

For the correct JDK version, go to the Technical Support site and search for the SiteMinder Platform Support Matrix for the release.
