Signout is the process of a user being logged out of all sessions associated with the browser that initiated the logout. Signout does not necessarily end all sessions for a user. For example, if the user has two browsers open, that user can establish two independent sessions. Only the session for the browser that initiates the signout is terminated at all federated sites for that session. The session in the other browser is still active.
A user can initiate a signout request from an Account Partner or a Resource Partner. The request is triggered by clicking a link pointing to the appropriate servlet.
Note: SOA Security Manager only supports the WS-Federation Passive Request profile for signout.
