How to configure SAML2 login

The topics below discuss how to configure SAML2 login.

Overview

Configuring SAML2 login contains the following steps:

Configure SPS as a SAML2 SP

NOTE: Authentication configuration is shared between the SPS central configuration and the managed hosts, therefore you must configure the Service Provider (SP) settings and the SAML2 login methods on the central configuration node.

Navigate to Users & Access Control > Login options. The SSO Configuration menu contains information about your SP configuration.

To configure SPS as a SAML2 Service Provider (SP), complete the following steps.

  1. Navigate to Users & Access Control > Login options, and click SSO Configuration.

    The SSO Configuration menu contains information about your SP configuration.

  2. Click SAML2 Service Provider settings from the drop down menu.

  3. Click Add new hostname to provide all the host names on which the SAML2 login method is available for users. When necessary, provide the port number as well. For example, 10.12.231.241, example.com, or user.example.com:8081.

    The web user interface allows you to configure the Assertion Consumer Service URLs. You can configure the entityID and the custom credentials on the REST API, if the defaults are not suitable.

    Figure 83: Users & Access Control > Login Options > SSO Configuration > SAML2 Service Provider settings – Configuring SP entity ID and host names

  4. Click Save.

Configure your IdP to trust SPS

To configure your Identity Provider (IdP) to trust One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS) as a Service Provider (SP), you must provide the SP metadata XML file of your SPS to your IdP. If your IdP supports the import of SP metadata, then you can choose either of the following methods to download the SP metadata XML file:

  • Download the SP metadata XML file by clicking Users & Access Control > Login Options > SSO Configuration > SAML2 Service Provider details > Download SAML2 metadata on the SPS web interface.

  • Download the SP metadata XML file from your SPS at the following location:

    https://<ADDRESS-OF-YOUR-SPS>/sts/saml2/sp-metadata.xml

    This file is accessible also for unauthenticated users since it only contains public information about the SAML2 SP configuration.

If your IdP does not support the import of SP metadata, then you must configure your IdP based on the summary of the SAML2 Service Provider details page.
