Configuring PingIdentity SSO on F5 APM

I am working with my security team installing PingIdentity SSO on F5 APM version 12.1.1. I am following these instructions: https://support.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/big-ip_apm/manuals/product/apm-authentication-single-sign-on-12-1-0/31.htmlunique_1334181038

 

They provide me a metadata file and certificate. However, I am getting this error when importing the metadata file and certificate:

 

MCP Error: 01070712:3 apm aaa saml-idp-connector ...... :Signature verification failed. Bad certificate file passed in

 

It is a virtual F5 LTM with APM running code 12.1.1 It is provisioned with 12 gigs RAM and 2 CPUs.

 

Cpu(s): 3.0%us, 1.5%sy, 0.2%ni, 94.8%id, 0.2%wa, 0.0%hi, 0.3%si, 0.0%st Mem: 12336668k total, 12093920k used, 242748k free, 607988k buffers Swap: 1023996k total, 0k used, 1023996k free, 1635224k cached

 

Has anyone had this error? Please assist.

    May be something wrong with the certificate or IdP metadata file.. When do you see this error? importing the metadata or cert?

    Hello PK.

     

    Thanks for your response. Yes. It happens upon import of the metadata and certificate. Any ideas?

    Hello ITGem,

     

    First of all, did you imported the signing certificate ?

     

    You should first import the signing certificate to your BIG-IP. Once you've done this step, when importing the metadata file you should select the certifcat imported.

     

    Hope it helps,

     

    Regards
