CA Strong Authentication Administration Guide › Managing Global CA AuthMinder Configurations › Assign Default Configurations

Assign Default Configurations

After you have created the required configurations such as, credential profiles and authentication policies, ASSP, and SAML, you must assign them globally (as a GA) or to a specific organization (as a Organization Administrator). You use the same page for assigning configurations at both the levels, however the approach to the task page is different.

This section explains how to apply configurations at the global level. For assigning the configurations to the organization, see Managing Organization-Specific Configurations.

Note: If the Organization Administrator (OA) does not specify profiles and policies at their organization level, then these profiles and policies are used by default. On the other hand, if a GA or an OA overwrites these configurations at their individual organization level, then those configurations are applicable for the organization.

Follow these steps:

1. Click the Services and Server Configurations tab on the main menu.
2. Verify that the CA Strong Authentication tab in the submenu is active.
3. Under the Assign Configurations section, click the Assign Default Configurations link to display the corresponding page.
4. Select the configurations that you want to use from the corresponding drop-down lists.

   You can assign the following using this page:

   • Profiles and policies for all supported credentials
   • Domain key configuration for ArcotID
   • Master key configuration for OATH-OTP Token, CA Auth ID OTP-OATH, and CA Auth ID OTP-EMV
   • SAML token configuration
   • ASSP configuration
   • The configuration to resolve authentication requests, if the credential type is unknown
   • The configuration to identify the credential type that has to be used to process ASSP authentication requests
   • The configuration to identify the credential type that has to be used to process RADIUS authentication requests
5. Click Save.

   Note: These configurations can be overridden at organization-level.

6. Refresh all deployed CA AuthMinder Server instances. See Refresh a Server Instance for instructions about how to perform this procedure.
