So there is 2 authentications and 2 applications, landing page is one and remote service is another. These are purchased solutions but this is my current understanding of the SSO.

 

  1. user authenticates on landing page, connecting from client IP to landing page (not loadbalanced)
  2. landing page reuses login to get authentication token from remote service, connecting from LP to remote service (load balanced)
  3. when user wants to use the remote service sometime later the token is used for SSO to remote service, connecting from Client IP to remote service (load balanced)
