Configure a Realm with a SiteMinder Web Agent

When you create a domain, you can create one or more realms in the domain and associate them with a SiteMinder Web Agent or Agent group. Realms group resources that have similar security requirements and share a common authentication scheme.

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.
