*Developer CheckList for Enabling end-to-end Federated SSO *

• Step 1:

• Decide where you Identity Data will be stored. Based on that decision either use the built-in LDAPIdentityProvider or write your custom LoginProvider that connects to this IdentityStore. Register this LoginProvider with the IdentityManagement Service. For details: Steps to integrate the Identity Management Framework \

• Step 2:

• Once the IdentityManagement is integrated into the system, integrate the SSO valves into your web application via the context.xml. Also, setup the JAAS login module for your web application as documented here: Steps to configure your web application for Federated SSO
  

• Step 3:

• At this point, your web application is "SSO Enabled". Now, it needs to be integrated with the Federation Server to make it "Federated SSO Enabled". This is done by configuring this web application in the server.cfg.xml file of the Federation Server in its security domain. For details: Federated SSO/Federation Server Explanation \
