Hi All,

I am trying to understand how to specify in the Relying Party Security
Policy the authentication method (e.g. username/pwd, X509 certificate, .) a
user has to use to authenticate to the IP/STS when requesting security
tokens.

 

I think it is necessary to insert another parameter into the RP's web.xml
file.

 

I saw in a security policy example a field "Issuer" as follows:




  <param-name>Issuer</param-name>

  <param-value>shib2.internet2.edu</param-value>

 

I know the Higgins STS provides some endpoints:

 

../services/MetadataX509Token                          (X509 Authentication)

./services/MetadataUsernameToken                (UsernamePassword
Authentication)

 

and so on.

 

Is it possible to insert another parameter (for example a MetadataReference
parameter that identifies the STST endpoint to be used) to specify the
authentication method? Do you know if, adding a parameter like this,
CardSpace will properly manage it and select only the cards that meet the
required authentication method?

 

Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

 

Best Regards.
