LDAP Auth DN/Fetch DN: These strings are used to first authentication the 6connect ProVision user and then to retrieve their permissions. The string '%LOGIN%' should be inserted in place of the user's common name both strings. (ex: cn=%LOGIN%,ou=people,dc=6connect,dc=com)

LDAP Group Attribute: If using an internal list of user groups instead of 6connect ProVision groups, enter the attribute name for the LDAP groups here. If a Group Attribute is set, it will be used first, otherwise the 6connect ProVision schema will be used. 

Mapping Permissions to 6connect ProVision schema: To integrate 6connect ProVision permissions with your existing directory structure then you will need the 6connect ProVision schema. It should snap in with any existing LDAP structure and allow you to assign 6connect ProVision permissions to your existing users. You can download a copy of the schema from this section.

titleLogging in with SAML
Info

Documentation Note: Depending on the IdP used, some screens may appear different from what is shown here.

Initial Login:

The initial login process occurs for the first time a user logs in, and anytime afterwards if the browser token is not present (e.g., cookies are cleared from the browser, the browser closed, or a new browser is used).

From the ProVision login page, select SAML from the authentication options dropdown - you do not need to enter Username or Password.

You will be redirected to the IdP site as set up in the Admin Configuration - here, we are using Microsoft ADFS (Active Directory Federation Services).

Log into the IdP site using your SAML credentials, and click "Sign In".

If the sign in is successful, you will be logged into the ProVision home page.

Subsequent Logins:

After the initial login via the IdP (as long as the auth token is present) users will be able to login to ProVision simply by selecting the "SAML" options from the ProVision login page without entering credentials.

The auth token may be destroyed or not available if browser cookies have been cleared, a different browser used, or the browser fully closed, depending on security settings. In these cases, the user will need to sign in again via the IdP.

To use DUO Authentication, an account must first be set up with DUO.

Info

php tools/disable_duo.php
