Passing AD creds from two different APM policies

I created a separate OWA iApp and VMware VDI iApp on a F5 APM/LTM. Both seem to be working fine independently. I would now like to merge the two using a single webtop.

 

So I created a Webtop link Application URI that uses the OWA APM VIP FQDN, and added the OWA webtop link to the VMware APM policy "Resource assign" VPE box.

 

I log back in with AD creds to reach the webtop (now with the OWA webtop). I click the OWA webtop link which takes me through the step to log back into the F5 APM my.policy page and login again using AD creds.

 

My question is, how can I pass the AD creds from the first time I login to the webtop (orginally for Vmware iApp) to my OWA APM VIP policy?

 

Thank you!!

  • Hello,

     

    You can't like this, you have to federate your identity (use IDP). your webtop link don't allow you to fw your ad credential.

     

    So you can easly create an IDP an federate your identity for all your Webapp (F5 as IDP and F5 as SP for your portal access an application).

     

    Or you can create a portal access ressource for OWA with basic sso or kerberos depending backend authentification.

     

    This ressource will be hosted on VMware webtop...
