This page lists entity metadata values that are well known as source of operational issues affecting SAML2 implementations in eduGAIN. According to the severity of the issues, the eduGAIN OT may reject the feed containing the metadata. Whatever the action the eduGAIN OT will undertake, it will promptly contact the Identity Federation responsible for the feed and it will try to solve the issue without any service interruption if possible.
