Issuer DN Mapping

Different web servers can interpret the same Issuer DN in different ways. For example, one web server can give Issuer DN like the following:

CN=Personal Freemail RSA 2000.8.30, OU=Certificate Services, O=Thawte, L=Cape Town, S=Western Cape, C=ZA

Another web server can give Issuer DN like the following:

CN=Personal Freemail RSA 2000.8.30, OU=Certificate Services, O=Thawte, L=Cape Town, ST=Western Cape, C=ZA

To support both possibilities, the administrator needs to create mappings for both issuer DNs.

Note: It is recommended that administrators create mappings to support various Web servers and the SiteMinder Test Tool.
