Once an organisation’s application for membership has been approved, and the option for participation determined, the organisation (or outsourced IdP/SP on behalf of the organisation) may register any number of identity provider and service provider entities:
- You install Shibboleth IdP and/or SP software
- You obtain a suitable X.509 server certificate
- Your Management Liaison e-mails a registration request to the federation helpdesk to register IdP and/or register SP entities
- You are sent an e-mail confirming that the technical description of each registered entity has been published in the federation metadata
- You download the metadata and modify your Shibboleth configuration to match it (described in SetupIdP and SetupSP).
Full registration details are available for the above steps.
