Microsoft Office SharePoint and Outlook Web Access: Verifying a Successful Agent Installation

This section describes the methods for verifying the installation of Agent for Microsoft IIS 6.0 to protect Microsoft Office SharePoint and Outlook Web Access. Refer to the section that applies to your deployment.

Microsoft Office SharePoint

If the agent is installed correctly, an attempt to access a protected resource results in the presentation of the Access Manager login page. Entering proper credentials at this point, successfully authenticates users, and if they have the appropriate SharePoint access rights to the resource, they are granted access. Then when users attempt to access any other application secured by the same Access Manager server, they are not prompted for authentication. They are granted or denied access to the resource depending on defined policies.

Microsoft Outlook Web Access

If the agent is installed correctly, an attempt to access the Outlook Web Access URL, which is https://agentHost.domain-name/exchange, results in the presentation of the Access Manager login page. Entering proper credentials at this point, successfully authenticates users and provides access to the Outlook Web Access inbox. Then when users attempt to access any other application secured by the same Access Manager server, they are not prompted for authentication. They are granted or denied access to the resource depending on defined policies.
