Add Filters

Custom filters are filters defined by customer's needs. CA SiteMinder® SPS uses custom filters to manipulate a request before forwarding the request to a backend server, and also to manipulate the responses sent by the backend server to the user client.

To add filters in proxyrules.xml or text mode in the Admin UI, type the filter as required in the proxy rules.

Example:

<nete:forward filter="filter1"http://FQDN$0</nete:forward>

To add filters in the tree mode in the Admin UI, perform the following steps:

  1. Click Proxy Rules, Filters.
  2. Click Add.
  3. Type the filter name and Java class name in Name and Class.
  4. (Optional) To add filter parameters, click Add in the Parameters table and enter the details.
  5. Click OK.

To apply a filter in the tree mode in the Admin UI, enter the name of the filter you want to apply when you create an action proxy rule.
