NetBackup and NetBackup Appliances Hardening Guide

Managing identity providers (IDPs)

You can configure single sign-on (SSO) with any identity provider (IDP) that uses the SAML 2.0 protocol and AD or LDAP directory services. You can add up to three IDPs to the appliance but can use only one at a time.

Note:

The date and time of the appliance, the IDP, and the browser must be synchronized. Cohesity recommends that the date and time are set using NTP.

Use the following procedures to manage your IDPs.
