IDP Configuration: *\[Shibboleth 2.0\]* To To interoperate with NIH the following changes/additions need to be made to the Shibboleth configuration files (examples are from NIH/InCommon interop on a Shibboleth IdP running HA_Shib):    *{+}SAML signing cert{+}* Please Please make sure that your IDP signing cert hasn't expired and it is loaded up to date in the InCommon metadata as our SP doesn't accept the assertions signed by an expired certificate.    *1) Attributes*
 

Make sure attribute-resolver.xml is configured to generate the

attributes: sn, givenName, email. 

NIH prefers that EPPN be delivered with the name "urn:oid:1.3.6.1.4.1.5923.1.1.1.6", and with scopetype inline.

If you prefer not to change the default behavior, you can create a new attribute definition. You should use whatever sourceAttributeID you are already using for "eduPersonPrincipalName" 

In attribute-resolver.xml:

 

 Inline scope version of OID form of EPPN to support NIH SPs  <resolver:AttributeDefinition id="urn:oid:1.3.6.1.4.1.5923.1.1.1.6-with-inline-scope"

...

                             scopeType="inline"/> </resolver:AttributeDefinition>

2) Attribute Release

 

In attribute-filter.xml release these attributes to NIH:

 

 

   NIH: release oid version of EPPN, email, surname, givenName. 

<AttributeFilterPolicy>

   <PolicyRequirementRule xsi:type="basic:OR">

...

   </AttributeRule>

</AttributeFilterPolicy>

 

 

3) Adjust ShibbolethSSOProfile

 

In the Shibboleth 1.3 instructions forceAttributePush is set true. For Shibboleth 2 the equivalent is includeAttributeStatement. You could change the default behavior of the profile, or set it specifically for the NIH SPs in relying-party.xml. 

To set it for NIH SPs only, in relying-party.xml (you can put this after the end of the DefaultRelyingParty element): 

 NIH: includeAttributeStatement true for ShibbolethSSOProfile 

<RelyingParty id="https://federation.nih.gov/FederationGateway"

...

                        includeAttributeStatement="true"/>

</RelyingParty>
