### Modify Domain Properties

You can modify the Domain Properties for a domain to customize the way BEA Guardian communicates with that domain.

To modify the Domain Properties for a domain, do the following:

1. Open the Domain Properties configuration page.

Do one of the following:

- Select Window > Show View > Active Domains Table to open the Active Domains Table. Then, select a domain and click Modify Domain.
- Click the Domain Explorer tab to open the Domain Explorer. Then, right-click on a domain in the Domain Explorer tree, and select Modify Domain from the context menu.

2. Configure the Domain Properties.

The Domain Properties configuration page contains the following fields and options:

- Name: This contains the name for this domain. You cannot modify this value.
- Username — This is the username of an WebLogic Server Administrator or Monitor account on the target domain.
- Password — This is the password for the WebLogic Server Administrator or Monitor account on the target domain.
- Remember Username/Password — This specifies that the domain credentials are to be stored so that you do not have to enter them for future domain operations.
- Enable Proxy Connection: Select this if a proxy server is to be used to access the target domain. Then, select a proxy server from the drop-down list. Click Add Proxy Servers to add proxy servers to this list (see Add Inbound Proxy Servers on page 54 for complete instructions).
- Max. Agent Threads: Select the maximum number of Agent threads to allocate in the WebLogic Server Administration Server. This can be an integer value from `1` to `20`. The default is `10`.
- Agent Thread Timeout (secs): Specify the maximum number of seconds that can elapse before an Agent thread is deactivated when collecting data from managed servers. This can be an integer value from `10` to `600`. The default is `60`.
- Notes: Enter a text description or other details pertaining to this domain.

3. Click OK.

This applies your new Domain Properties settings to the selected domain.
