How can a SAML metada file be used?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A, D

FortiAuthenticator can be configured as a SAML identity provider (IdP) or a SAML service provider (SP). As an IdP, FortiAuthenticator authenticates users and issues SAML assertions to SPs. As an SP, FortiAuthenticator receives SAML assertions from IdPs and grants access to users based on the attributes in the assertions. Principal and assertion server are not valid SAML roles.

SAML metadata file? Sounds like a file for storing all the selfies I take at the gym. Where's the option for that?

Resolving the IDP realm for authentication? Now you're speaking my language. Option D sounds like the right answer to me.

Hmm, correlating the IDP address to its hostname? That's a new one. I'll have to think about that one, but I'm leaning towards option B.

I think option B is correct. It's about importing the required IDP configuration.

Aha! The SAML metadata file is where I can find all the IDP configuration details. Option B is the way to go.

Importing the required IDP configuration from the metadata file is essential for setting up SAML authentication.

SAML metadata file? I thought that was just a fancy term for a list of usernames. Nope, option A is not it.
