Cache Response Attributes

You can instruct a SiteMinder Agent to cache response attributes or expire attributes that contain dynamic data, forcing the Agent to contact the Policy Server and update the information. If you configure a static response attribute, the Policy Server only allows you to cache the value. By definition, static values do not change, so there is no need to recalculate them. If you configure user, DN, or active attributes, you can either cache the value or recalculate the value at specific intervals to ensure that the data is current.
