WebLogic Portal 10: Configuring the Agent Filter Modes

Configuring the agent filter modes for WebLogic Portal 10 agent is different than for the WebLogic Server 10 agent because the following filter modes do not apply to WebLogic Portal 10:

• SSL_ONLY: If you are using WebLogic Portal 10 for single sign-on (SSO), use the J2EE_POLICY filter mode.

• URL_POLICY: If you are using WebLogic Portal 10 to protect URLs such as portal JSP files from being accessed directly, use the ALL filter mode.

To set the filter modes for the WebLogic Server/Portal 10 agent, use one of these methods:

• Use the OpenSSO Enterprise Administration Console:

  1. Login to the Console as amadmin.

  2. Under Access Control, realm-name, Agents, and J2EE, click the name of the agent profile you want to update.

     The Console displays the Edit page for the agent profile.

  3. Under Global, add the filter mode to the Agent Filter Mode.

  4. Click Save.

  or

• Use the ssoadm utility to set the com.sun.identity.agents.config.filter.mode property.

When creating a OpenSSO Enterprise policy to protect the WebLogic Portal 10 instance, define the policy to give permission to only public portal URLs. For example:

http://agent.example.com:7041/groupspace/

http://agent.example.com:7041/groupspace/groupspace.jsp
