# Enable Cookie Reset

When `true`, the agent resets (blanks) cookies in the response before redirecting to authentication by issuing a Set-Cookie header to the client. An example header could be similar to this:

`Set-Cookie myCookie= ; Max-Age=0; Expires=Thu, 01-Jan-1970 00:00:00 GMT; Domain=.my.default.fqdn`

If [FQDN Default](com.sun.identity.agents.config.fqdn.default.html) is set, the agent sets the cookie domain to the domain specified by the property. Otherwise, the agent leaves the cookie domain blank.

Default: `false`
