Dear all F5 Expert,

 

I struggling on finding the F5 APM SSO integration with VMware Connection server. Any URL/link for reference how to set this up?

 

My current flow are authenticate with AD server via APM, then i want to use SSO forms to login to the VMware Connection Server without users need to re-key in the same user-id and password.

    Hello Elvis,

     

    I don't know "VMware Connection Server" however if you want to process sso form in a web page you have to follow this steps.

     

    • connect directly to your login page (from internal) without crossing F5.

       

    • before set up your username and password, you can use F12 (Developer tools) to capture your login exchange (in order to view all parameter send to web app during authentification).

       

    Additional you have to retrieve "form action" for this you have to display code source of your page and check your form parameter: https://www.w3schools.com/tags/att_form_action.asp

     

    start uri should be your URL ressource (URL that trigg sso), example, for OWA, it would be /owa/auth/logon.aspx*...

     

    Below an example with citrix: https://devcentral.f5.com/questions/citrix-xenapp-storefront-apm-integration

     

    Let me now if you need more details.

     

    regards,
