6.5. Configuring Web Policy Agents

When you create a web policy agent profile and install the agent, you can choose to store the agent configuration centrally and configure the agent through OpenAM console. Alternatively, you can choose to store the agent configuration locally and configure the agent by changing values in the properties file. This section covers centralized configuration, indicating the corresponding properties for use in a local configuration file where applicable.[5]

[Tip] Tip

To show the agent properties in configuration file format that correspond to what you see in the console, click Export Configuration after editing agent properties.

This corresponds to the local Java properties configuration file that is set up when you install an agent, for example in Agent_001/config/.

After changing properties specified as "Hot swap: no" you must restart the agent for the changes to take effect.



[5] The configuration file syntax is that of a standard Java properties file, though backslash escapes can be used only to wrap long lines. See java.util.Properties.load for a description of the format. The value of a property specified multiple times is not defined.
