    Article Summary

    RapidIdentity IdP Configuration

    The Identity Provider Configuration page contains various URL sites, links to download metadata and certificate information, the certificate fingerprint, and an option to ensure consistent client addresses. This page provides administrators with their Registered Identity Provider information for user authentication in web applications.

    Expand Identity Providers from the Left Menu Items, and click IDP Configuration.

    The current Identity Provider Configuration will be displayed in the workspace. For details, refer to the below table.

    Field

    Description

    Entity ID

    The SAML EntityID of the Identity Provider

    Base URL

    The base URL to the IdP

    Logout URL

    The IdP's logout URL

    Live Metadata URL

    The URL to view the metadata associated with the provider that allows the remote vendor to access the metadata at any time.

    Metadata

    Click to download the registered metadata for the Identity Provider to save as an XML file.

    Signing Certificate .PEM File

    Click to download the (.PEM) encryption certificate used by the Identity Provider.

    Signing Certificate .CER File

    Click to download the (.CER) signing certificate used by the Identity Provider.

    Certificate Fingerprint

    The SHA1 fingerprint of the IdP's signing and encryption certificate

    Ensure Consistent Client Address Checkbox

    When this box is checked, the client address is maintained across clustering and is bound to a particular client IP address. Requests from that session are only considered valid when used from that same IP address.

    Note

    Checking this box can cause users to be forced to re-authenticate from devices any time their connection changes cell towers or wireless access points, or when the DHCP lease expires.

    • The Delete Configuration function should be used only if there is an issue with the IdP configuration, such as a mismatch of IP address or a change to the DNS name, as the IdP configuration will be deleted and must be reconfigured completely.
    • Caution
    • Deleting an IdP configuration will also result in deleting all SAML Relying Party configurations and will require reconfiguration of the IdP, Relying Parties, and all federated Service Providers.
