TAM Lab 066 - vSphere 7 with ADFS Authentication

[jaylojado]

I dont understand the need of ADFS here when the users have to enter their username and password anyway in comparison to their AD account login method.
is there a way to setup the access and authorisation without users needing to enter their Admin account username and password?

thanks! can i ask ? My sddc still can't use ADFS account . My vcenter can use it normally

If I configured adfs in vcenter, will it allow windows protected group member to login into vcenter?

How does ADFS affect authenticating to vCenter via PowerCLI? Does it continue to pass your AD creds through? Will you need to use local accounts? I want to use ADFS, but don't want to lose SSO via PowerCLI.

Hello, this is a great video. Thank you for this! I've had an issue where you get a certificate error when attempting to configure adfs on vcenter (com.vmware
Trust server returned http response code 526) Documentation says you need to import the root CA certificate for adfs. Do you also need to import the vcenter root ca certs into adfs? I've also seen some forums where users have had to generate new machine ssl certs from a public or internal CA depending on which the organisation is using. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks

I'm lost at 5:30, I thought I had everything set up correctly but when I go to initiate ADFS, vCenter fails. I think its due to this step, but I'm having a hard time understanding what you are exactly doing in this "keystore" Can you explain this a little better or provide the documentation is states it calls for?
