  3. On the Customize your SSO subdomain page you can specify a subdomain you'd like your users to see when they are logging in with Duo Single Sign-On. For example, you can enter acme and users would see acme.login.duosecurity.com in the URL when logging into Duo Single Sign-On.

Fill out the fields listed below using information from your SAML identity provider:

Name

Description

Display Name

A name so that you can easily identify the provider.

Entity ID

The global, unique name for your SAML identity provider. This is provided by your SAML identity provider and is sometimes referred to as "Issuer".

Single Sign-On URL

The authentication URL for your identity provider. This is sometimes referred to as "SSO URL" or "Login URL".

Single Logout URL

This field is optional and currently unused by Duo Single Sign-On. This field my be used in the future. The logout URL for your identity provider. This is sometimes referred to as "SLO URL" or "Logout Endpoint".

Logout Redirect URL

This field is optional. When this field is populated, after logging a user out of Duo Single Sign-On they will be redirected to the URL in this field.

Certificate

Download the signing certificate for your identity provider, and then click the Browse button to select the downloaded certificate.

Username normalization

Controls whether or not usernames entered for primary authentication should be altered before trying to match them to a Duo user account. When set to None, the usernames narroway, EXAMPLE\narroway, and [email protected] would be three separate users in Duo. When set to Simple, any domain information is stripped from the username sent to Duo, so narroway, EXAMPLE\narroway, and [email protected] would all resolve to a single "narroway" Duo user.

Default: Simple.

Once all the required information is filled out click Save.
