How to Configure Global Policies

A global policy is comprised of global rule objects and global response objects, including response attributes. The following process lists the procedures for creating a global policy:

1. Create a Global Rule for Authentication Events or Create a Global Rule for Authorization Events
2. Configure a Global Response
3. Configure a Global Web Agent Response Attribute
4. Configure the Global Policy

Important! You can configure both global policies and domain-specific policies that affect the same resources. For example, you can configure domain-specific policies for access control, and global policies that provide a standard set of responses. However, in order for global policies to function, the realms included in the domain-specific policies must be configured to allow event processing.
