Filter Aggregate

This command line configuration example:

  • reads the UK federation metadata aggregate from its distribution site

  • verifies the aggregate's signature using the X.509 certificate taken from path/to/input/ukfederation-2014.pem, terminating processing if this is not possible

  • removes three (imaginary) entities belonging to the example.com domain

  • removes all entity role descriptors other than IDPSSODescriptor, SPSSODescriptor or AttributeAuthorityDescriptor 

  • removes any person or organization contact information

  • writes the results into the file path/to/output/output.xml

You can execute the example as follows:

$ .../mda.sh filter-aggregate.xml main
