ADFS SessionInitiator
- Rod Widdowson
- Ian Young
Advanced Configuration
Note, this is an advanced configuration feature. Most deployments can rely on the <SSO> shorthand element.
The ADFS handler is only available if the adsfs.so extension library is loaded by the SP.
Indicated by type="ADFS", this initiator supports Microsoft ADFS authentication requests, a subset of the WS-Federation passive requester profile. As a protocol handler, an entityID must be specified/known, which is then used to check for metadata with an <md:IDPSSODescriptor> role supporting ADFS. The absence of either causes a warning to be logged and the handler otherwise ignores the request.
A "supporting" IdP's role element has a protocolSupportEnumeration attribute containing the value "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2003/07/secext", with an accompanying <md:SingleSignOnService>with a Binding of "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2003/07/secext".
