NativeSPRequestMap

The <RequestMap> element is the root of the XML-based request mapper configuration.


<RequestMap applicationId="default">
    <Host name="www.example.org">
        <Path name="secure" authType="shibboleth" requireSession="true"/>
    </Host>
    <Host name="admin.example.org" applicationId="admin" authType="shibboleth" requireSession="true">
        <AccessControl>
            <Rule require="affiliation">faculty@osu.edu student@osu.edu</Rule>
        </AccessControl>
    </Host>
</RequestMap>

Attributes

Content Specifiers

The root element applies to all requests, so has no attributes to limit matching behavior.

Content Settings

XML attributes corresponding to request mapper properties are used.

A special requirement of this root element is that it MUST contain an applicationId attribute with a value of "default", which in turn matches the required id attribute of the outer-most <ApplicationDefaults> element in the shibboleth2.xml file.

Child Elements

Access Control

Nested Content Specifiers

Zero or more of these "overrides" to match specific virtual hosts can be included.

<Host>
- Matches requests with the exact hostname (and optionally port and scheme).

<HostRegex>
- Matches requests with a URL prefix matching a regular expression. The prefix contains everyting up until the slash following the hostname or port.

Matching is done by examining <Host> elements in order, and then checking any <HostRegex> elements in order.
