Configure ECP at the Identity Provider

To configure ECP with SiteMinder, enable the feature at the Identity Provider and the Service Provider. The following procedure is for a SiteMinder Identity Provider.

Follow these steps:

  1. Log in to the FSS Administrative UI at the Identity Provider.
  2. Navigate to the SSO tab for the SAML Service Provider object you want to modify.
  3. Complete the required single sign-on configuration settings in the dialog.
  4. Select the Enhanced Client and Proxy Profile check box.
  5. Click OK.

The SiteMinder Identity Provider can now process ECP calls.

Note: A single SAML Service Provider object can handle artifact, POST, SOAP, and PAOS bindings for single sign-on requests. SOAP and PAOS are the bindings for the ECP profile. The Identity Provider and Service Provider determine the binding being used based on the parameters in a request.
