Policy Server User Interface

The browser-based CA SiteMinder Administrative UI primarily enables management of Policy Server objects, but also provides some system management functionality.

To access the Administrative UI

1. Do one of the following:
   • From the computer hosting the Administrative UI, click Start, Programs, CA, SiteMinder, SiteMinder Administrative UI.
   • Open the following URL in your browser:

     http://host_name.domain:port_number/iam/siteminder
     

   The host_name is the name of the computer on which the Administrative UI runs. You must use a fully-qualified domain name. If the Administrative UI is not using the default HTTP port (80), you must add the port number as shown in the following example:

   http://maincomputer.example.com:8080/iam/siteminder.

   The login page for the Administrative UI appears.

2. Enter a valid user name and password in the appropriate fields.

   If you are accessing the Policy Server for the first time, use the default super user administrator account, which you created during Policy Server installation.

3. Click Log In.

   The Administrative UI opens.

   The contents of the window depend on the privileges of the administrator account you used to login. You will only see the items to which your account has access.
