name

Use the name entry in the [preserve-cookie-names] stanza to list specific cookie names that WebSEAL must not modify.

name = cookie_name

Description

WebSEAL, by default, modifies the names of cookies returned in responses from junctions created with pdadmin using -j flag. WebSEAL also by default modifies the name of cookies listed in the junction mapping table (JMT). This default modification is done to prevent naming conflicts with cookies returned by other junctions.

When a front-end application depends on the names of specific cookies, the administrator can disable the modification of cookie names for those specific cookies. The administrator does this by listing the cookies in this stanza. We can configure more than one name entry to list multiple cookie names that WebSEAL must not modify.

Options

When entering a value for cookie_name, use ASCII characters.

Usage:

This stanza entry is optional.

Default:

There are no cookie names set by default.
