In addition to the SiteMinder Super User administrator account credentials, which were established when you installed the Policy Server and configured the policy store, the FSS Administrative UI login screen also requires the name and shared secret of a 4.x Agent. You establish these credentials to ensure that the communication between the FSS Administrative UI and the Policy Server is FIPS-encrypted (AES encryption).
Note: Creating a 4.x Agent identity to log into the FSS Administrative UI does not require that you to install a SiteMinder Web Agent, configure a Host Configuration Object and Agent Configuration object, or register a trusted host. The FSS Administrative UI only requires the 4.x Agent identity.
To create the 4x agent
The Create Agent screen appears. The create new object radio button is selected.
Agent-related properties appear.
Example: FSS UI Agent
Note: Record the Agent name as it is required to log into the FSS Administrative UI.
The Trust Settings group box appears.
Note: Record the Agent shared secret as it is required to log into the FSS Administrative UI.
You have created the required 4.x Agent credentials and may log into the FSS Administrative UI.
