Chapter 3: Feature-Specific Upgrade Behavior

Authentication
Two new realms—policy substitution and Oblix COREid—have been added in SGOS 4.x.
COREid Realm—The ProxySG can be configured to consult an Oblix COREid (formerly known as 
Oblix NetPoint) Access Server  for authentication and session management decisions. This 
requires that a COREid realm be configured on the ProxySG and policy written to use that realm 
for authentication.
Policy Substitution Realm—A Policy Substitution realm provides a mechanism for identifying and 
authorizing users based on information in the request. The realm uses information in the request 
and about the client to identify the user. The realm is configured to construct user identity 
information by using policy substitutions. See Table 3.2 on page 15 for useful substitutions added 
in support of this feature.
In addition, RADIUS realms now support one-time passwords, and Netegrity realms now allow you 
to enable or disable client IP validation.
Upgrade Behavior
COREid and Policy Substitution realms: These new realms have no upgrade issues.  On a downgrade, 
the realms will not be recognized and could cause policy compilation to fail if they are referenced by 
policy.
Netegrity: On an upgrade, the new realm option for client IP validation is added to existing realms 
with the default value of 
enabled 
so that the behavior remains as it was. On a downgrade, the value 
is ignored and all SiteMinder realms do client IP validation.
Administrator Actions
You must upgrade to the latest version of the Blue Coat Authorization and Authentication Agent 
(BCAAA) before you can use the new COREid realm.

Bandwidth Management
Bandwidth management allows you to classify, control, and, if required, limit the amount of 
bandwidth used by different classes of network traffic flowing into or out of the ProxySG. Network 
resource sharing (or link sharing) is done using a bandwidth-management hierarchy where multiple 
traffic classes share available bandwidth in a controlled manner. 
Bandwidth management provides the following features:
Guarantees that certain traffic classes receive a specified minimum amount of available 
bandwidth.
Limits certain traffic classes to a specified maximum amount of bandwidth.
Prioritizes certain traffic classes to determine which classes have priority over available 
bandwidth.
