|   | You can find more information on the Webgate configuration files in [OAM documentation](https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E40329_01/doc.1112/e49451/webgate_apache.htm#WGINS76171) for configuring Webgates. |

## Steps

1. Create an OAM Apache 11g Webgate (or use an existing one).

2. Create a new folder in the PingFederate Server, to store the Webgate configuration files. This folder will henceforth be referred to as the Agent Config Location. This path must be specified during the PingFederate Configuration.

3. Copy the Webgate configuration files to the Agent Config Location folder.
