Resource Partner Properties Dialog--General Tab

The General tab is where you specify identity information for the Account Partner and Resource Partner other general information.

Resource Partner ID

Specifies a URI that uniquely identifies the Resource Partner, such as, rp.example.com.

Account Partner ID

Specifies a URI that uniquely identifies the Account Partner, such as ap-ca.com. This becomes the Issuer field in the SAML assertion.

Skew Time

Specifies the number of seconds (as a positive integer) to be subtracted from the current time to account for Resource Partners that have clocks that are not synchronized with the Policy Server acting as an Account Partner.

D-Sig Verification Info Group Box

Determines digital signature functions.

Disable Signature Processing

If set, all signature processing for this Resource Partner (both signing and verification of signatures) is disabled for the Resource Partner.

Note: Signature processing must be enabled in a production environment. Disabling it by setting the Disable Signature Processing option should be used for debugging only.

Signing Alias

(Optional) Specifies the alias associated with a specific private key in the SiteMinder key database. By completing this field, you are indicating which private key the Account Partner should use to sign assertions and assertion responses.

Note: It is recommended that the private key already be stored in the key database before you specify its associated alias in this field.

Limits: an alphanumeric character string
