Big-ip as SAML IdP: automate metadata import

Hi,

 

I'm looking into using our Big-IP as SAML IdP. It all seems straight forward, however I seem to be missing a key option: the regular import of SP Metadata.

 

We currently use a Shibboleth IdP 3.x This IdP downloads on a regular basis the metadata of our federations. (Belnet, eduGAIN) These federations are large. There are many SP, SP change all the time. Obviously I don't want to create all the SP from the Medata by hand. Or even automate it by tmsh, this seems to be a bad idea.

 

Is there any way to do this?

 

I've seen the option Idp Automation, unfortunately it seems to be only for when you use the Big-IP as SAML SP.

 

Thanks Vincent
