Published DNS Name: Displays the value that users are currently using to access this proxy
service. This DNS name must resolve to the IP address you set up as a listening address on the
Access Gateway.
Cookie Domain: Displays the domain for which the cookie is valid. The Web server that the
user is accessing must be configured to be part of this domain.
2 Configure the following options:
Description: (Optional) Provide a description of the purpose of this proxy service or specify
any other pertinent information.
HTTP Options: Determines how the proxy service handles HTTP headers and caching. For
more information, see
and
Section 5.2, "Controlling Browser Caching," on page
Advanced Options: (Access Gateway Service) See
Options for Path-Based Multi-Homing," on page
3 Configure the path options:
Remove Path on Fill: Determines whether the multi-homing path is removed from the URL
before forwarding it to the Web server. If the path is not a directory at the root of the Web
server, the path must be removed. If this option is selected, the path is stripped from the request
before the request is sent to the Web server.
If you enable this option, this proxy service can protect only one path. If you have configured
multiple paths in the Path List, you cannot enable this option until you have deleted all but one
path.
Reinsert Path in "set-cookie" Header: Determines whether the path is inserted into the Set-
Cookie header. This option is only available if you enable the Remove Path on Fill option.
4 Determine whether you need to create a protected resource for your path.
In the Path List, the path you specified is listed along with the protected resource that best
matches its path.
The Access Gateway automatically selects the protected resource that is used with the specified
path. It selects the current protected resource whose URL path most closely matches the
specified path.
If you have a protected resource with a URL path of /*, the Access Gateway selects that
resource unless you have configured a protected resource that has a URL path that more
closely matches the path specified on this page.
If you add a protected resource at a future time and its URL path more closely matches the
path specified on this page, the Access Gateway automatically reconfigures to use this
new protected resource.
If you disable a protected resource that the Access Gateway has assigned to a path-based
service, the Access Gateway automatically reconfigures and selects the next protected
resource that most closely matches the path specified on this page.
4a In the Path List section, click the Protected Resource link.
4b Examine the contract, Authorization, Identity Injection, and Form Fill policies assigned to
this protected resource to ensure that they meet the requirements for your path-based
service.
