.NET and F5 integration

We would like to develop 2 ASP.NET Login pages for 2 staged authentication (1st LDAP, then SMS via webservice) but we are stuck on how to do the following:

 

1. How do we access to the LDAP authentication output that F5 APM module created?

 

2.After SMS authentication, how do we transfer success or failure login message from ASP.NET back to F5 APM so that the session is either stopped or proceed?

 

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Thank you

    LDAP provides several attributes when you complete a successful query. You can set specific attributes to request, or you can get a full list by outputting "session.ldap.last.*". To see what you are getting back you can add a Logging event to the VPE and select LDAP which automatically populates with "session.ldap.last.*".

     

     

    You can also check under APM > Reports and it will show you all results for that specific session.

     

     

    For the ASP.NET solution, you could use a Forms Based SSO or AAA profile to look for a specific value by a resulting redirect or presence of a cookie.
