Using Identity Management with Single Sign-On

This chapter explains how to use the administration module for SSO and IMS. Setting up the vendor and user, granting access to web services, setting up the IMS role, and granting access are managed using the administration module. This section contains the following:

·       SSO Vendor

·       IMS Role Configuration

·       Creating a New Vendor Role

·       Deleting a Vendor Role

·       Web Services

 

The first step is logging in to the administration module. Within this module you set up the SSO/IMS site, create security roles, and create user accounts. The first time you log in, you can use the default administrator user ID of “SSOAdmin.” After the user is successfully logged in as administrator, the Admin menu is accessible.

·       Site Settings – The site settings options are available for the host login. These settings are defaulted from the DNN framework and should be accessed only by Personify.

·       Pages – This option is defaulted from the DNN framework and should be accessed only by Personify.

·       Security Roles – Security roles are used to manage access to the various functions within the admin application (for example, SSOAdmin, Subscribers, etc.).

 

The security setup is divided into parts.

·       Basic settings

·       Advance settings

 

You can edit the role details by clicking the pencil icon located on the left side of the role name. You can edit all the details except the name of the role.

 

You can add new roles by clicking the pencil icon at the bottom menu bar on the page. Define the Role ID and Description of the role.
