Issue/Introduction:

Does CA SPS support the use of custom headers in proxyrules.xml? As per the SPS document, it supports the use of "standard" and "SSO headers". I understand standard headers are such as user-agent, cookie etc. But my requirement is of using headers set by a backend application after successful authentication.

Environment:

Release : 12.7

Component : SITEMINDER -WEB AGENT FOR APACHE

Resolution:

You should be able to use any headers set by the backend application.
