NimbostratusWhere to find "loginReference"?
What really is "loginReference" mentioned in below article from BIG-IP perspective?
Where to find it? Is it somewhere in 3rd party authentication provider configuration such as SD/LDAP? or Is it somewhere in the BIG-IP itself after the 3rd party auth provider is registered?

Ed_SummersI asked a similar question some time ago for basic understanding and didn't get too far. However I did find this article by Jason Rahm indicating to use the login provider 'tmos', which instructs the API to use the provider(s?) configured in TMOS. That got me running with token auth, which was required since we used an external authentication provider. Since then I've kinda pushed the "I believe" button and driven on.
If I have time tomorrow I'll look at the SDK code to see what it is doing.
