CookieFilter

Manages, suppresses, and relays cookies as follows:

  • Manage, to store cookies from the protected application in the IG session, and include them in later requests.

    For requests with a Cookie header, managed cookies are removed so that protected applications don't see them.

    For responses with a Set-Cookie header, managed cookies are removed and then added in a Cookie header to the next request that goes through that filter.

    Manage is the default action, and a common choice to manage cookies originating from the protected application.

  • Suppress, to remove cookies from the request and response. Use this option to hide domain cookies, such as the AM session cookie, that are used by IG but are not usually used by protected applications.

  • Relay, to transmit cookies freely from the user agent to the remote server, and vice versa.

If a cookie does not appear in one of the three action parameters, then the default action is performed, controlled by setting the defaultAction parameter. If unspecified, the default action is to manage all cookies. In the event a cookie appears in more than one configuration parameter, then it will be selected in the order of precedence: managed, suppressed, relayed.
