Restrict Changes to Local Configuration Parameters

With central agent configuration, you can restrict the configuration parameters that can be set by a local web server administrator. You may want to do this if the SiteMinder administrator in your organization is not the same person who is responsible for the web server where the SiteMinder Agent is installed.

Follow these steps:

1. Log in to the Administrative UI.
2. Click Infrastructure, Agent Configuration.
3. Click Modify Agent Configuration.
4. (Optional) Fill out the search form to narrow your search criteria.
5. Click Search.
6. Click the radio button on the left of the Agent Configuration Object you want.
7. Click Select.
8. Click the arrow to the left of the AllowLocalConfig parameter.
9. Erase the text in the Value field.
10. Click the Multi-value radio button.

    An empty field appears.

11. Type the name of the parameter to which you want to allow access in the field.

    Important! Do not provide the values as Yes or No for the parameter.

12. Click Add.
13. (Optional) Repeat Steps 11 and 12 to add more parameters.
14. Click OK.
15. Click Submit.

    Your changes will be applied the next time the Web Agent polls the Policy server.
