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.
