SiteMinder Administrator Authentication

In previous versions, the Administrative UI only used an external store as its source for SiteMinder administrator credentials.

By default, the Administrative UI now uses the policy store as its source for SiteMinder administrator credentials. The Administrative UI uses the policy store for administrator authentication until you use the Administrative UI to configure a connection to an external store. A connection to an external administrator store is optional.

Note: For more information about administrator store options and how to configure a connection to an external administrator store, see the Policy Server Configuration Guide.
