How to Configure the JVM Policy for the Remote Agent

Steps

1. Edit the lib/security/rox.policy file.

2. Delete the line that allows the application to connect to or accept connections from all hosts.

3. Add the following line to give the application permission.

   permission java.net.SocketPermission "ipAddress", "accept";

   ipAddress is the IP address of the Local Distributor or the Master Server to which this Remote Agent is connected.

Adding Permissions to Connect to a Host

If you plan to execute plans containing steps that require network access, such as urltest, you might want to add permissions for this Remote Agent to connect to a particular host.
