Add an IdP Profile

An Identity Provider (IdP) profile defines how your system interacts with an external IdP for user authentication. By creating an IdP profile, you allow your system to authenticate users for the defined domain, governed by the role and site assignment rules in the IdP profile.

The following IdPs are supported by ExtremeCloud IQ:
  • Generic SAML Server
  • Active Directory Federation Service (ADFS)
  • Ping
  • Okta
  • Microsoft Entra ID
  • OneLogin
  • Auth0

Use this task to add an IdP profile to your network.

  1. Hover over Account, and then select Global Settings.
  2. From the ADMINISTRATION menu, select Enable Single Sign On (SSO).
  3. Select Add IdP Profile.
  4. Select a Type, enter a Domain and Description, and then select Continue.
    Note

    Note

    Only the domain specified will allow login. If your IdP employs sub-domains, separate IdP profiles are required for each sub-domain.
