Microsoft Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) iApp Template
Problem this snippet solves:
Use this iApp template for configuring standard load balancing, monitoring and TCP optimization for Microsoft Active Directory Federation Servers (AD FS and AD FS Proxy). If APM is provisioned, the template should support configuring pre-authentication for ADFS servers running in Windows Authentication mode. Minimum required BIG-IP version: 11.2.
If you are deploying APM for authentication proxy to AD FS services, you must enable Windows Authentication in the Intranet section of the AD FS Global Authentication Policy.

what happened to v1.0.0rc5? this was previously visible. Is there a reason why its been removed?- It was removed by mistake. The updated template will be posted here ASAP.

Hi
Has anyone come across an issue where, when you select to use an existing access policy the F5 doesn’t return the response to the client?
We have the iapp deployed on v11.4.1
If we select no apm, then disable strict updates and manually apply our existing AP it works!?!?
Any thoughts?
Cheers Simon
KoebiHello,
in my opinion the Network part "Which VLANs transport client traffic?" isn't working corretctly. If I'm selecting "no VLANs", no VLANS are slected in the Virtual Server, too. In the description is written:
"If you do not move any VLANs to the Selected box, the BIG-IP system accepts traffic from all VLANs" - That's wrong!
Further I can not add any Coonectivity Profile to the Virtual Server VLAN Section. The result is, that VPN Access to the VIP is not working.
Regards
Martin
LRei76Hi,
we have the same problem with the iApp. Vlan selection does not include connectivity profiles needed for vpn access. Moving no vlan into the box does only use 'all vlans' but not any cp.
Any chance for implementing the CPs to the selection?
Regards, Lars
