Configure an Affiliate Agent Response Attribute

You can create a response attribute for a SiteMinder Affiliate Agent by selecting SiteMinder and Affiliate Agent on the Attributes group box on the Response pane. Affiliate Agent response attributes support HTTP header variables and cookie variables. More information on Agent types exists in the Web Agent Configuration Guide.

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.
