You create a custom agent using either the C or Java version of the SiteMinder Agent API. The SiteMinder Agent API and associated documentation are provided by the Software Development Kit, which is available separately.
Note: Custom Agents do not support central agent configuration. More information about using an API to create a custom Agent exists in the SiteMinder Programming Guide for C or the SiteMinder Programming Guide for Java.
After you develop your own Agent, you must configure a new Agent type. The Agent type defines the behavior of an agent and lets you use the custom Agent to protect resources. For example, if you developed a custom FTP Agent, you would then need to define an FTP Agent type.
You configure a custom Agent type to define the behavior of a custom agent and to identify the custom agent when creating the agent object. You create the Agent type using a SiteMinder API.
Note: More information on creating an Agent type using the C version of the SiteMinder Agent API exists in the SiteMinder Programming Guide for C .
