Configure a Realm for a 4.x Affiliate Agent

This topic refers to the legacy 4.x Affiliate Agent. The 4.x Affiliate Agent has no relationship with the affiliates, Service Providers, or Resource Partners that you can add to an affiliate domain.

Although the 4.x Affiliate Agent is an agent, it does not protect resources on an affiliate's Web site. However, to configure responses that pass information to a 4.x Affiliate Agent, you must configure a realm. Configuring a realm for a 4.x Affiliate Agent is simpler than configuring a SiteMinder Web Agent.

Note: The following procedure assumes you are creating a new object. You can also copy the properties of an existing object to create an object. More information exists in Duplicate Policy Server Objects.

To configure the realm

1. Click Policies, Domains.
2. Click Realm, Create Realm.

   The Create Realm: Select Domain pane appears.

3. Select a domain from the Domain list, and click Next.

   The Create Realm: Define Realm pane appears.

   Note: Click Help for descriptions of settings and controls, including their respective requirements and limits.

4. Type the name and a description of the realm in the fields on the General group box.
5. Click the ellipsis button on the Resource group box.

   The Select an Agent group box opens.

6. Select an Affiliate Agent or Agent group, and click OK.

   Note: The remaining properties on the Resource group box are specified when the Affiliate Agent is configured on the Web server. See the Web Agent Configuration Guide for more information.

7. Create new rules or delete existing rules on the Rules group box.
8. Click Finish.

   The Create Realm Task is submitted for processing.
