Service Provider
In this setup, we cannot give port 443 to the frontend SSO portal. Therefore, the frontend SSO portal is operating on the default port 8076.
We have to make a change so that the frontend service console will use the backend SSO portal that operates on port 443.
Login to the DualShield Admin Console on the backend server
Navigate to "SSO | Service Providers", locate the newly installed frontend server, e.g. "FrontMFA-ServiceConsole"
Click the context menu of the frontend server agent, and select "Edit"
Then, click the "Edit"
Change the "SSO Server" option from "FrontMFA-SingleSignOn" to "Single Sign-on Server"
Step 4: Change the "Metadata" of the Frontend Service Provider
Now, click the "EDIT METADATA" button
Remove 8076 from the 2 lines highlighted above
Save the changes
