Configure SiteMinder Policies

Perform the following procedure to configure SiteMinder policies.

Follow these steps:

1. Use the SiteMinder agent object and a SiteMinder authentication scheme to create a validation realm for protecting the following resource:

   /smwebasagent/
   

2. Create a rule on the realm protecting the following Web Agent Actions:
   • Get
   • Post
3. Create a response that contains the following Web Agent HTTP Header Variable response attributes:
   • A User attribute, set to a Variable Name WASUSERNAME (an Attribute Name set to the attribute for presentation to the Web Application Server for SSO2 ticket generation).
   • An Active Response for NPSSessionLinker, using the following settings:
     • Leave the Variable Name blank.
     • Set the Library Name to npssessionlinker.
     • Set the Function Name to Config.
     • Set the Parameters to COOKIE1=MYSAPSSO2;COOKIE2=JSESSIONID.
     • In the Advanced tab, remove the leading equal sign (=).
4. Verify that the result matches the following example:

   <@lib="npssessionlinker" func="Config"
   param="COOKIE1=MYSAPSSO2;COOKIE2=JSESSIONID"@>
   

5. Create a policy that includes the previous rule with an appropriate set of users. Associate the responses with the rule created in Step 2.
