This section describes how to configure a federation server using Active Directory
Federation Services (AD FS) to work with Deep Discovery Inspector.
|
Note
Deep Discovery Inspector
supports connecting to the federation server using AD FS 4.0 and 5.0.
|
Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) provides
support for claims-aware identity solutions that involve Windows Server and Active
Directory technology. AD FS supports the WS-Trust, WS-Federation, and Security
Assertion Markup Language (SAML) protocols.
Before you begin configuring AD FS, make sure that:
-
You have a Windows Server installed with
AD FS 4.0 or AD FS 5.0 to serve as a federation server.
-
You are logged on to the management console as a Deep Discovery Inspector administrator.
-
You have obtained the metadata file from Deep Discovery Inspector.
-
You have configured web browser settings on each endpoint
to trust Deep Discovery Inspector and the federation
server.
