Resource Group Box

Agent field

Specifies the name of the agent or agent group that will protect the resources in the realm.

Lookup Button

Opens the Set Agent/Group Dialog from which you pick an agent or agent group from a list of all such existing objects or search for one by name.

Resource Filter field

Specifies the path for the resource filter. This field functions as a root for locating resources.

Note: Do not create a realm whose specified Agent and resource filter are effectively the same as the specified Agent and resource filter in a pre-existing realm. Typically, the UI will prevent you from doing this, but the combination of two Agent or two resource filters that look different as strings but resolve identically can circumvent Policy Server’s validation algorithms.

Every resource on the server protected by the Agent that matches the Resource Filter is included in the realm to which you are connecting. For example, /marketing/ indicates that the new realm will include only those resources located in the /marketing/ directory of the server protected by the Agent or Agent group.

Note: Asterisk (*) and question mark (?) characters are treated as literal characters in resource filters (not wildcards).

Effective Resource field

(Informational) Displays the Agent and resource protected by the realm.
