APM - AD integration
Dear All,
I'm new to F5 products and technology and trying to get some inputs on the below scenario. I'm planning to host an application in cloud, I do expect around 1000 organizations to use my application, from each organization there will be 5 to 10 users using this application.
these users will be coming to my web server through internet. What is the best way to authenticate these users? this application is in Windows environment and in domain. now my queries are below..
-
can I create the username passwords for these users ( coming through internet) in my AD and through APM shall I provide the login page and the credentials verified in the AD? is this possible? any specific settings required at AD side if I have AD cluster?
-
Our application is accessible through browser, any additional settings required at user end browser? we do not have any idea about the end user environment, they may have their own AD some of them may not.
-
if I have to off load the SSL and terminate it on BIG IP LTM, shall I buy the SSL certificate for the expected number of concurrent users and do the configuration and upload the certificate in LTM?
Appreciate your guidance. BS
