Starting and Stopping Web Agents

Enable a Web Agent

Configure your agent parameters and then enable the agent to protect the resources on the web server.

Note: No resources are protected until you also define policies in the CA SiteMinder® Policy Server.

Follow these steps:

1. Open the WebAgent.conf file with a text editor.

   Note: Agents for IIS installed on 64-bit operating environments have two WebAgent.conf files. One file for 32-bit Windows applications. The other file is for 64-bit Windows applications. Modify both WebAgent.conf files when starting or stopping the Agent for IIS.

2. Change the value of the EnableWebAgent parameter to yes.
3. Save and close the WebAgent.conf file.
4. Restart the web server (the web server itself, not the computer on which it runs).

   The Web Agent is enabled.
