SAML Metadata Export from an Authentication Profile
- Device > Authentication Profile
The firewall and Panorama can use a SAML identity provider (IdP) to authenticate
users who request services. For administrators, the service
can be access to the web interface. For end users, the service can
be Authentication Portal or GlobalProtect, which enable access to
your network resources. To enable SAML authentication for a service,
you must register that service by entering specific information
about it on the IdP in the form of SAML metadata. The firewall and
Panorama simplify registration by automatically generating a SAML
metadata file based on the authentication profile that you assigned
to the service and you can export this metadata file to the IdP.
Exporting the metadata is an easier alternative to typing the values
for each metadata field in the IdP.
Some of the metadata in the exported file derives from
the SAML IdP server profile assigned to the authentication profile
(Device
> Server Profiles > SAML Identity Provider). However, the
exported file always specifies POST as the HTTP binding method,
regardless of the method specified in the SAML IdP server profile. The
IdP will use the POST method to send SAML messages to the firewall
or Panorama.
To export SAML metadata from an authentication profile, click
the SAML Metadata link in the Authentication
column and complete the following fields. To import the metadata
file into an IdP, refer to your IdP documentation.
SAML Metadata Export Settings | Description |
---|---|
Commands | Select the service for which you want to
export SAML metadata:
Your
selection determines which other fields the dialog displays. |
[Management | Authentication Portal | GlobalProtect]
Auth Profile | Enter the name of the authentication profile
from which you are exporting metadata. The default value is the
profile from which you opened the dialog by clicking the Metadata link. |
Management Choice (Management
only) | Select an option for specifying an interface
that is enabled for management traffic (such as the MGT interface):
|
[Authentication Portal | GlobalProtect] Virtual
System (Authentication Portal or GlobalProtect only) | Select the virtual system for which the
Authentication Portal settings or GlobalProtect portal are defined. |
IP Hostname (Authentication Portal
or GlobalProtect only) | Enter the IP address or hostname of the
service.
If
you enter a hostname, the DNS server must have an address (A) record
that maps to the IP address. |
