Properties

The general function of the request mapper is to associate "properties" with a request. These properties are named and typed and provide the basic interface between the configuration of the software and the software itself. Obviously similar to XML attributes, these properties may in fact be expressed with XML, but do not have to be.

The set of supported properties is as follows:

...

Analagous to Apache's AuthType command, just set this to "shibboleth" unless you want to bypass any processing by the SP.

...

A port to redirect non-SSL GET or HEAD requests to. Other HTTP methods like POST will result in an error. Used to automate the blocking of non-SSL requests in a portable way. Most servers can do this anyway, but some like IIS won't enforce the rule until it's too late to prevent problems with the Shibboleth filter.

...

Sets the value of the IsPassive attribute of any SAML 2.0 AuthnRequest messages issued automatically as a result of accessing the resource. Has no effect for other SSO protocols. Overrides the isPassiveattribute of a SessionInitiator. Also have a look at the page in order to see what isPassive can be used for.

...

"exact", "better", "minimum", "maximum"

...

NameQualifier to use in authentication request. For instance, entityID of an EntityDescriptor with an AffiliationDescriptor.
