Prerequisites for Using the SharePoint Connection Wizard

Before you run the SharePoint Connection Wizard, perform the following steps:

• Verify that you are using a version of the Policy Server that supports the SiteMinder Agent for SharePoint.
• Create a 4.x Agent in the Policy Server Administration UI to enable the Connection Wizard to communicate with the Policy Server.
• The default port number that the SharePoint Connection Wizard uses to contact the Policy Server is 44444. Specify the Administration Service Port number in the Policy Server Management Console if different from the default port number.
• Verify that a policy domain exists on your Policy for the SharePoint resources you want to protect. Verify that the directory containing your SharePoint users is associated with the same policy domain. The SharePoint connection wizard requires the name of the policy domain.
• Identify the required inputs for the SharePoint Connection Wizard by using the Information worksheet.
• Verify that the certificate you want to use for the SharePoint Claims provider is installed on your Agent for SharePoint.
