Creating the Necessary URL Policies

If the agent is installed and configured to operate in the URL_POLICY or ALL mode, the appropriate URL policies must be created. For example, WebSphere Application Server with Administration Console is listening on ports 10001 (http) and 10003 (https), respectively, and WebSphere Portal Server is listening on port 10038 (http), create the following polices for the WebSphere Administrative user IDs (wasadmin and wpsadmin) to allow them to access the WebSphere Administration Console and Portal Server URLs:

http://myhost.mydomain.com:10001/*
https://myhost.mydomain.com:10003/*
http://myhost.mydomain.com:10038/*

Note: This example assumes that http://myhost.mydomain.com:10001/ibm/console is the Administration console URL and http://myhost.mydomain.com:10038/wps/myportal is the Portal Server URL.

If the policies are not defined and the agent is configured to operate in the URL_POLICY or ALL mode, then no user is allowed access to the IBM WebSphere Application Server and Portal Server 6.0 resources.

For information about creating these policies using the Access Manager Console or command-line utilities, see the Sun Java System Access Manager 7.1 Administration Guide.
