Advanced Policy Components for Applications

Application objects provide configuration options that let the following types of users modify SiteMinder components beyond the default settings:

• Those users who are familiar with the policy design and interface used in SiteMinder releases before r12 who want to fine–tune aspects of their policies.
• Users who want a higher level of granularity in their policies than the default settings provide.
• Auditors and others who want to determine if the policies implemented using an application object meet the requirements of the organization or of any regulations with which the organization must comply.

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.
