Cannot Access Protected SharePoint Resource using the Anonymous Authentication Scheme (CQ 135276)

Symptom:

I cannot access a protected SharePoint web application using the CA SiteMinder Anonymous Authentication scheme, and a page cannot be displayed error appears.

Solution:

This error message appears because the SMIDENTITY cookie is created with the anonymous login instead of the SMSESSION cookie. The CA SiteMinder Agent for SharePoint does not currently support the Anonymous Authentication scheme.
