  1. Post id/pwd by accessing a dummy web resource secured (by Siteminder) to Siteminder

i do not think HTTP::redirect is applicable. you may try HTTP::retry or sideband.

 

and what happens next?

Thanks for response. Below is the remaining steps in that usecase. 4 Grab the Siteminder cookie (SMSESSION) from Siteminder 5. Remove the id/pwd from the incoming request. Add SMSESSION cookie 6. Send the request to backend Regards, Praque
