Configure a Nested Realm

Administrators who have privileges to Manage Domain Objects can create a nested realm within a parent realm, as long as the parent realm is associated with a domain within the administrator's scope.

Note: You can only create nested realms under a realm that is protected by CA SiteMinder® Web Agents.

Follow these steps:

1. Click Policies, Domain, Realms.
2. Specify search criteria, and click Search.
3. Click the name of a realm that you want to modify.
4. Click Modify.

   The settings and controls become active.

5. In Sub-Realms, click Create Sub-Realm.
6. Type the name and a description of the realm.
7. Type the path of the resource filter.

   Note: The resource filter of the nested realm is added to the resource filter of the parent realm. For example, if the parent realm's filter is /marketing, and the nested realm's filter is /data, the entire filter is: <agent_of_the_parent_realm>/marketing/data.

   Note: Asterisk (*) and question mark (?) characters are treated as literal characters in resource filters, not wildcards.

8. Specify the session properties.
9. Specify the following advanced settings:
   • Authorization directory mapping
   • Events processing
10. Click OK.

    The newly created Sub-Realm is added to the parent Realm.

11. Click Submit.

    A Realm associated with the newly created sub-realm is created.
