Prerequisites

You have installed Shibboleth Service Provider and configured it with Cornell IDP.

Configuration

Weill Medical has its own Identity Provider with entityID "https://login.weill.cornell.edu/idp".

• Open shibboleth2.xml, add Weill Medical IDP's metadata resolver inside <ApplicationDefaults .. > block

  <MetadataProvider type="XML" validate="true" url="https://login.weill.cornell.edu/idp/saml2/idp/metadata.php" backingFilePath="weill-idp.xml" maxRefreshDelay="7200" />

  
  

• In shibboleth2.xml, find <SSO entityID=..> tag which is inside <Sessions> block and replace it with:

<SSO discoveryProtocol="SAMLDS"  discoveryURL="https://idselect.idm.cit.cornell.edu/idselect/select.html">SAML2</SSO>

• To avoid name space collision, define REMOTE_USER to use the value of eduPersonPrincipalName

  <ApplicationDefaults entityID="xxxx" REMOTE_USER="eduPersonPrincipalName" ..>
