What must first be created on the firewall for SAML authentication to be configured?

AServer Policy

BServer Profile

CServer Location

DServer Group

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

A server profile identifies the external authentication service and instructs the firewall on how to connect to that authentication service and access the authentication credentials for your users. To configure SAML authentication, you must create a server profile and register the firewall and the identity provider (IdP) with each other. You can import a SAML metadata file from the IdP to automatically create a server profile and populate the connection, registration, and IdP certificate information.Reference:Configure SAML Authentication,Set Up SAML Authentication,Introduction to SAML
