Cloud Authentication Service Quick Setup Guide for My Page SSOCloud Authentication Service Quick Setup Guide for My Page SSO

This guide helps you quickly set up your production deployment for the Cloud Authentication Service and add authentication and single sign-on (SSO) for applications using My Page SSO.

Use this guide with the Planning Guide. If you have completed a deployment with another Quick Setup Guide and want to set up the deployment described in this guide, skip the steps you have already completed.

Note: This guide does not apply to deployments that plan to use the identity router embedded in Authentication Manager. The embedded identity router does not support SSO.

Step 1: Plan

Step 2: Configure Company Information and Certificates

Step 3: Deploy the Identity Router

Step 4: Enable IDR SSO Agent on the Cluster

Step 5: Connect LDAP Directory

Step 6: Add an Access Policy

Step 7: Enable My Page

Step 8: Protect a Resource

Step 9: Test

Step 1: PlanStep 1: Plan

There are a few things you need to plan to deploy your system.

What You Need to KnowWhat You Need to Know

RSA uses a hybrid architecture that consists of two components:

• The Cloud Authentication Service is a cloud service that provides an easy-to-use Cloud Administration Console and powerful identity assurance engine.

• The identity router is an on-premises virtual appliance that securely connects your on-premises resources, such as Active Directory, to the Cloud Authentication Service. This VM has two network interfaces. Place one interface in a public-facing network and the other in a private network where it can reach your Active Directory.

• The identity router is a virtual appliance that securely connects your on-premises resources, such as Active Directory, to the Cloud Authentication Service. You can deploy the identity router in your on-premises VMware or Hyper-V environment, or in the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud.

Note: After an identity router is registered in a deployment, it cannot be reused in another deployment. For example, suppose you registered an identity router with Company A for a trial deployment, and you want to use the same identity router with Company A in a production deployment. You must add a new identity router (virtual machine) to the production deployment.

Additional information is available in the Planning Guide.

Planning Network Interfaces for the Identity RouterPlanning Network Interfaces for the Identity Router

Relying party deployments support both standalone and embedded identity routers. For details on planning network interfaces, see Identity Router Network Interfaces and Default Ports.

RADIUS services are available in standalone identity routers that are deployed with one or two network interfaces. If the identity router is deployed with two network interfaces, the RADIUS service listens on the management interface. For details on planning network interfaces, see Identity Router Network Interfaces and Default Ports.

SSO Agent deployments require a standalone identity router. The identity router can be deployed with with one or two network interfaces. If the identity router is deployed with two network interfaces, the SSO agent will be available from the portal interface. For details on planning network interfaces, see Identity Router Network Interfaces and Default Ports.

In all deployments with AWS, the identity router has one network interface to which you assign public and private IP addresses and connect other network resources from the internet or your private network.

3. Click Download Identity Router Image and do one of the following:
   • For VMware, click Download OVA Image for VMware, and save the image to a location accessible by VMware.
   • For Hyper-V, click Download VHD Image for Hyper-V, and save the image to a location accessible by Hyper-V.
   • For Amazon Web Services:
     1. Click Access AMI Image for Amazon.
     2. Enter your AWS Account ID.
     3. Click Update AMI Access.
     4. Note the values in the Identity Router AMI Name and AWS Regions with AMI Access fields. You can search the AWS private images catalog using these values to quickly locate the AMI.

   Note: If you do not see the options to download an identity router image, be aware that RSA is working behind-the-scenes to make these images available to you. RSA will send you an email when these images are available for download.

4. To install the identity router virtual appliance, sign into the VMware client and do the following:

   • 1. Follow the VMware client documentation to install the virtual appliance from the image. When prompted, enter the following data:

     5. With the virtual machine selected, right-click again and select Connect.

   • To use Amazon Web Services, sign into Amazon EC2 and follow the documentation provided by Amazon to do the following:
     1. Make sure your AWS environment includes a VPC which meets the following requirements:
        • Private and public subnets are configured according to your deployment requirements.
        • Route tables, security groups, and network ACLs are configured to allow necessary traffic to and from the other network resources in your deployment, such as users and identity sources.
        • All DNS servers required for your deployment are specified in the DHCP options set.
     2. Launch the virtual instance using the AMI.
        When prompted, specify the following:

     Setting	Description
     AMI template	The AMI template image provided by RSA.
     Instance type	Determines presets for the virtual instance. The identity router requires a t2.large instance or greater.
     Virtual Private Cloud (VPC)	The section of your Amazon environment where you will deploy the identity router.
     Subnet	A subnetwork within your VPC where you will deploy the identity router. The subnet can be either public or private, depending on how resources and users will connect to the identity router.
     Auto-assign Public IP	Determines whether Amazon issues dynamic public IP addresses for the identity router, or the IP address is determined by the subnet settings. If your organization manages its own DNS service, RSA recommends allocating a persistent Elastic IP address through Amazon Web Services, and assigning it to the identity router instance after you complete the launch process.
     Storage	Virtual storage space. The identity router requires 54 GB General Purpose SSD (GP2) storage.
     Tags	Optional labels that describe this identity router. RSA recommends adding a tag specifying the Fully Qualified Domain Name, which acts as a unique identifier to differentiate this identity router from others in your deployment.
     Security groups	Firewall rules that control traffic to and from the identity router. Add security groups that allow necessary traffic from other network resources according to your deployment model.

     3. Review the configuration and launch the instance.
     4. If prompted to select a key pair, select Proceed without a keypair.
     5. Use the Get instance screenshot feature to monitor instance deployment status. When deployment is complete, refresh the screenshot and write down the URL displayed for the Identity Router Setup Console.

You use the Identity Router VM Console to configure IP addresses and static routes for on-premises identity routers deployed in your VMware or Hyper-V environment.

Note: This procedure is not required for identity routers in the Amazon Web Services cloud.

Procedure

1. Connect to the identity router using your VMware management client.
2. Connect to the identity router using your VMware or Hyper-V management client.
3. Sign into the Identity Router VM Console:

   You are prompted to change these credentials the first time you sign in.

4. Refer to the planning worksheet for the values to complete the Management sections.

   Use the Up and Down arrows to navigate the main menu. Press Enter to select a menu option or configure its settings. Use Tab and Shift + Tab to navigate between settings and back to the main menu. When the cursor is in the settings panel, press F10 to save or Esc to revert. Press F10 after you complete each section to save your values.

5. Select Commit in the left-hand frame to save the network configuration settings.
