Configure a Response Group

You can create a response group that applies a set of responses to one rule in a policy.

Note: The following procedure assumes that you are creating an object. You can also copy the properties of an existing object to create an object. For more information, see Duplicate Policy Server Objects.

To configure a response group

1. Click Policies, Domains.
2. Click Response Group, Create Response Group.

   The Create Response Group pane opens.

3. Verify that Create a new object is selected, and click OK.

   The Create Response Group: Select Domain pane opens.

4. Select a domain name from the drop-down list, and click Next.

   The Create Response Group: Define Response Group pane opens.

5. Type the name and a description of the response group in the fields on the General group box.
6. Select Radius or SiteMinder and an Agent Type on the Attributes group box.

   Note: The specified Agent type must correspond to the Agent type of the responses in the group. Only responses with the specified Agent type are available for inclusion in the group.

7. Click Add/Remove on the Group Members group box.

   The Choose responses pane opens.

   Note: The Available Members column lists all responses that are defined in the specified domain for the specified Agent type. When the Agent type is Generic Radius, the Available Members column lists all responses that are supported by Radius agents.

8. Select one or more responses from the list of Available Members, and click the right-facing arrows.

   The responses are removed from the list of Available Members and added to the list of Selected Members.

   Note: To select more than one member at a time, hold down the Ctrl key while you click on the additional members. To select a block of members, click on the first member and then hold down the Shift key while you click on the last member in the block.

9. Click OK.

   The selected responses are added to the response group.

10. Click Submit.

    The Create Response Group Task is submitted for processing.

Add Responses to a Response Group

You can add responses of the same Agent type to a response group. All of the responses must exist in the same domain.

To add responses to a response group

1. Open the response group.
2. Click Add/Remove in the Group Members group box.

   The Choose responses group box opens. The Available Members column contains responses available from the selected domain and with the specified Agent type or RADIUS vendor type.

   Note: The Available Members column lists all of the responses supported by RADIUS agents if you specified Generic RADIUS.

3. Move responses to the Selected Members column to include them in the group, and click OK.

   The Response Group pane opens. The selected rules open in the Group Members group box.

4. Click Submit.

   The response group is saved.

Modify a Response Group

You can modify all of the properties of a response group, except Agent type.

To change the Agent type, delete the response group and create a new one.

Note: More information about modifying and deleting Policy Server objects exists in Manage Policy Server Objects.

Delete a Response Group

Deleting a response group only deletes the grouping, not the individual responses contained in the group.
