Custom Authentication Schemes

If you want to use an authentication method that is not provided by SiteMinder, you can create a custom authentication scheme. Once you create a Custom scheme, you must configure the scheme on the SiteMinder Authentication pane.

Note: For information on configuring an smauthetsso custom authentication scheme, which is needed for enabling single sign-on from CA Single Sign-On to SiteMinder, see CA SSO/WAC Integration.

Note: If you have installed the Software Development Kit, see the API Reference Guide for C for information about creating a custom authentication scheme.

Custom Scheme Prerequisites

The prerequisites of a Custom authentication scheme are determined when you create the scheme using CA’s APIs. Prerequisites will differ between authentication schemes.
