J2EE Agents

A J2EE Agent communicates with Access Manager with a user name (agent ID) and password through an agent profile created in the Access Manager Administration Console. After the agent profile is created, the J2EE Agent then uses the following properties in its AMAgent.properties file to store the user name (agent ID) and password:

• com.sun.identity.agents.app.username contains the user name (agent ID) that the J2EE Agent uses to login to Access Manager.

• com.iplanet.am.service.secret contains the encrypted password of the user name (agent ID) that the J2EE Agent uses to login to Access Manager. The password must be encrypted using the agentadmin utility with the --encrypt option.

See the next section for information about agent profiles.
