Configure the Scheme Setup Tab

You can use the Scheme Setup tab for SecurID authentication and HTML forms support.

To configure the Scheme Setup tab

1. In the Server Name field, enter the name of the Web server on which the FCC was installed.

   The server does not have to be the same server on which the Agent is installed. This server name must be a fully qualified name with at least two dots. For example, server.myorg.org

2. If you want SiteMinder to use a secure sockets layer connection for this authentication scheme, select the Use SSL Connection check box.
3. In the Target field, enter the following:

   /siteminderagent/pwcgi/smpwservicescgi.exe

   This is the default path SiteMinder uses in order to process SecurID authentication with HTML forms support. This Target value assumes that password services will be processed by the Web Agent that receives a request. If password services templates reside on another Web Agent, the full path to that target URL should be specified in the Target field.

4. In the Ace User Attribute Name in Directory field, enter the name of the attribute that contains ACE IDs.

   If user distinguished names (DNs) are different from the ACE server’s user IDs, enter the name of the attribute in the user directory that contains the user ID in the ACE server. For example, if the user’s ACE ID is jsmith, and her DN in an LDAP directory is cn=Jane Smith, ou=sales, o=security.com, then user profile attributes can be used to map back to the ACE user ID. For example, you can create a new attribute called “aceid,— or use an existing unused attribute. The Policy Server will retrieve the value of this attribute and use that as the ACE user ID.

5. Click Apply to save the authentication scheme.
