Setting up SAML 2.0 for Replicon

Replicon supports use with SAML 2.0. However, Replicon does not host its own identity provider for SAML 2.0, as it does with SAML 1.1. If you want to use SAML 2.0 with Replicon, you must enlist a third party identity provider.

Setting up SAML in Replicon

Before you set up your identity provider, you need to enable SAML in Replicon and configure transfer settings.

To set up SAML 2.0 in Replicon:

1. Log in to Replicon.
2. Go to Administration > System and Security > Security Settings.
3. From the Authentication Providers section, click the Add Authentication Provider link.

4. From the Provider Type drop-down in the dialog that displays, select SAML 2.0.
5. Either upload the metadata XML file from your identity provider in the Configuration Metadata field, or complete the following fields, with data from your provider:

• • • SSO HTTP Post URL
    • SLO HTTP Redirect URL
    • XML Signature Algorithm
    • Public Key

6. Click Save.

SAML 2.0 will now be enabled, and Replicon set up for use with your identity provider.

Setting up your SAML identity provider

Once you've enabled and configured Replicon, you can configure your identity provider. To do this, you’ll need the Replicon service provider metadata XML file. You can find this file at:

Talk to your identity provider if you need help with setup. We provide an example of configuring ADFS 2.0 to work with SAML 2.0 functionality in Replicon, for those using ADFS 2.0.
