How are we going to scale interfederation globally, with the pieces we have

DATE: 20 November 2012

TIME: 16:30

ROOM: Alternative

TOPIC: Interfederation

CONVENER: Niels van Dijk

SCRIBE: Brook

# of ATTENDEES: Klaas, Peter, Nicole, Lukas

MAIN ISSUES DISCUSSED 

  1. How do you get to an SP in another federation, from an IdP in your home federation.
  2. Requirements:
    1. SAML2 (in both federations)
    2. Federations (at A and B)
    3. Bilateral Peering is possible (but you don't want to do that because it doesn't scale)
  3. UK Federation + Edugate interfederation agreement
    1. Easy: Metadata, Attributes, Workflow
    2. Hard: Trust (federation operator processes)
  4. Cheating - because meaningful attributes
  5. HTTP GET doesn't work too bad at the moment.
  6. How large was the HOSTS file before it was too big.
