SiteMinder Administrators

A SiteMinder administrator is anyone who has access to Policy Server objects and tools. Depending on individual roles in an organization, SiteMinder administrators have access to different resources and features, and are responsible for different tasks.

The SiteMinder administrative model lets you implement fine-grained administrative privileges, so you can organize the management of Policy Server objects and SiteMinder tools across a few or many individuals in an organization.

Default Superuser Administrator

When you configure the policy store, a default superuser account is created. This account has the maximum system privileges, which you use for the following operations:

• Registering the Administrative UI with a Policy Server.
• Creating any other type of Policy Server object, including other administrator accounts.
• Using any of the Policy Server tools.
• Trusted Host administration.
• Managing the Policy Management API.

The default superuser account has the following credentials:

User Name

siteminder

Password

The password that you specified when configuring the policy store.

Note: For more information about configuring a policy store, see the Policy Server Installation Guide. For more information about registering an Administrative UI, see the Policy Server Installation Guide.
