Selected Answers: A


Create a remote SAML authentication server from Authentication > Remote Auth. Servers > SAML.
FortiAuthenticator will generate the SAML URLs and entity ID automatically. The Portal URL is where
unauthenticated users are directed for authentication. Requests on the portal authentication URL will be
redirected to IdP to perform user authentication. Importing the metadata file will configure the IdP settings.
Once the authentication is successful, the IdP will attach an assertion that FortiAuthenticator can then use to
generate an FSSO session for the principal. You can also configure FortiAuthenticator to perform LDAP
lookup for group membership of the principal, as long as the IdP and FortiAuthenticator use the same LDAP
server. You can also specify whether the username of the principal is pulled in from Boolean assertions or
test-based attributes.
