System Administrator

The default CFS system administrator is the FID super user (e.g. cn=directory manager). This user is configured during the RadiantOne FID installation. When the CFS system administrator logs into the administration console, the following menu options are displayed.


Dashboard

In the Dashboard section, the Global View node displays all installed applications packages. Only installed applications are available for tenant administrators to use for their portals.

sysadmin 1

The Servers node displays all CFS servers configured in the system and their status. A CFS server can be Master, Proxy, Proxy Web API or System.

sysadmin 2


Settings

Settings Configuration

In the Settings section, the Configuration node contains many settings related to CFS.

  • Package Gallery URL – Since Radiant Logic manages a web gallery for application templates and themes, the location may change over time. This allows the CFS system administrator to change the location of the web gallery if needed.
  • Enable Web Proxy – Enable it in case your company requires a web proxy to access the internet. This parameter is used for downloading packages on the Web Gallery.
  • Web Proxy URL – URL of your company's web proxy.
  • Web Proxy Port – Port of your company's web proxy.

sysadmin 3

Login Page

The Login Page configuration pages are used to configure the "Global Login Page" for both CFS Master and CFS Proxy. If you have more than one tenant, the global login page can display a login / password form or a custom HTML code. This feature allows to have different Global Login Page if you are on the CFS Master or the Proxy.

  • Enable Login Form - Activate the login / password form on the Global Login Page.
  • Logo - This is the logo displayed on top of the Global Login Page. The recommended size is 425px (w) x 270px (h).
  • Css - Use a custom CSS for this page.
  • HTML - Enter a custome HTML code if you don't want to display the login form

sysadmin 4

SMTP

The SMTP node contains the settings required to send emails automatically for certain activities like user account creation, user account locked, user password reset, activities related to 2-step verification, and notifications related to certificate changes for CFS.

  • Enable Sending Emails – allows for activating and de-activating support for sending automated emails.
  • SMTP Address – address of the SMTP server.
  • SSL – whether SSL should be used to communicate to the SMTP server.
  • Port – port to connect to the SMTP server.
  • Login – login for the SMTP server (optional: only required if you enter a password).
  • Password – password associated with the login for the SMTP server (optional: only required if you enter a login).
  • From – address the automated emails should come from.

sysadmin 5

Access

The Access node contains the settings for who can access the System Dashboard.

  • Enter the group that is used to authorize a user to access the dashboard.
  • Enter the Root DN where to start the search for the user lookup.
  • At last, provide the attribute used to search for the user.

access

Redirection

The Redirection node contains the settings to bypass the automatic redirection to the RTCs based on the user agent of the web browser. For example, a Linux machine or a smartphone don't have a kerberos token to provide for authentication so we might want to create rules that prevent some web browser from being redirected to the RTC (if any).

  • Bypass all the following rules - check this option if you want to ignore the rules and let any web browser to access the RTC (if any).
  • Click "New Rule" to add a new rule.
  • Each textbox must contain the Regular Expression of the web browser user agent that you want to ignore.

redirection


Tenants

In the Tenants section, the All Tenants node displays a list of all configured tenants. You can edit the parameters of the tenant by clicking the Edit button. If you need to update the FID schema used by this tenant, click Schema. To configure the self-registration for the tenant, click Registration. You can also delete the tenant by clicking Delete. Note that deleting a tenant from this interface does not delete the configuration in FID but only disables the tenant. If you want to definitely remove the tenant from FID, you can use the PowerShell cmdlet: Remove-CfsTenant.

New Tenant

Tenants can be created from the New Tenant node.

On the General tab, enter the tenant name and the Login URL (associated with the tenant portal) field populates automatically.

sysadmin 6

On the Location tab, specify the location in the identity store for people, groups and the default system groups used by CFS (HelpDesk and Tenant Administrators). This allows the CFS system groups to be located in a different container/naming context than the groups used for authorization of end/portal users. CFS does not try to create those groups for you. For users, this allows you to point to an existing container where all portal users for this tenant are located. If the tenant allows self-registered users, a container below the People DN in the identity store must allow insertion operations for new user accounts. To enable support for self-registered users, please see the Tenant Administrator Guide.

sysadmin 7

The Schema tab allows you to define the following:

  • The attribute that identifies users in the identity store
  • The identity store attribute that contains the "display name" for users
  • The identity store attribute that contains the users' email address
  • The object class associated with groups in the identity store
  • The attribute used to get the members of a group in the identity store

sysadmin 8

On the following screen, you must enter the email address of the user that plays the role of the Tenant Administrator. This user must exist in the identity store and have a valid email address. This user is added to the CFS system group Tenant Administrators.

sysadmin 9

Password Policy

You can set the password policy you want to use for a tenant in CFS. First of all, log into the FID Control Panel and create a new Password Policy. See the FID Documentation if you need help.

password policy 1

password policy 1b

Navigate back to the System web site for CFS and, in the Tenants section, click the All Tenants node. Then choose Edit for the tenant you want to apply the new password policy.

password policy 2

In the drop-down list Password Policy, select the new policy you have just created in your FID. The following field Password Policy Description is a text used displayed to indicate password strength requirements. e.g. Length, number of digits, special characters.

password policy 3

Click Save.

Self-Registration

To configure the attributes allowed for self-registration (remember the Tenant Administration must also enable support for the self-registration of users):

  1. Under the Tenants node, click All Tenants.
  2. Click Registration next to the tenant to be configured. The Registration Attributes page is displayed.
  3. To add a registration attribute, click the red '+' sign at the top right corner of the Attributes table. The Add a new Attribute window opens. sysadmin 11
  4. Enter the name of the FID attribute. A list of relevant FID attributes populates as you type.
  5. Select a type from the pull-down menu. Options include constant, input, and expression.
  6. Enter a value in the field that populates when you selected the type. A constant is a static value applied to all self-registered users. An input is a value the user must enter during self-registration. An expression indicates how a value is computed for the self-registered user.
  7. Click OK. The Registration Attributes page displays your new registration attribute.
  8. Click Save.

Computation functions

The expressions for the computation of attribute values can use the following functions:

  • sub gets a substring of an input.
  • append concatenates two or more inputs.
  • lower gets the lower case of an input.
  • upper gets the upper case of an input.
  • trim removes the leading and trailing spaces of an input.
  • left gets the left part of an input.
  • right gets the right part of an input.

Computation script

Computation scripts are written in C# and must contain the function public string Compute(IDictionary<string, string> inputs). The variable inputs is a dictionary that contains the list of inputs provided by the end user.

public string Compute(IDictionary<string, string> inputs)
{
    return "Compute your Value";
}

Here are a few example you can use to compute your attributes.

public string Compute(IDictionary<string, string> inputs)
{
    // Extract a value from the dictionary with the key 'Firstname'
    return inputs["Firstname"];
}

public string Compute(IDictionary<string, string> inputs)
{
    // concatenate multiple values
    return inputs["Firstname"] + " " + inputs["Lastname"];
}

public string Compute(IDictionary<string, string> inputs)
{
    // use an extra variable
    string result = string.Concat(inputs["Firstname"], " ", inputs["Lastname"]);
    return result;
}

Themes

Themes determine the portal’s look-and-feel.

In the Web Gallery node of the Themes section, the CFS System Administrator can install the themes that they want to make available for tenants to use when designing their portals.

sysadmin 12

Installed themes are shown on the Available node. These themes are available for tenants to use for their portals. The Update all Themes button looks on the web gallery if there is any update for the templates installed.

sysadmin 13

The Upload node allows you to upload a .zip theme file. Those files are provided by Radiant Logic.

sysadmin 14

Applications

In the Applications section, the Web Gallery node contains all possible configuration templates. The Download all the templates button downloads and installs automatically all the templates available on the web gallery.

sysadmin 16

If an application is installed, it appears in the Available node and means that tenants are allowed to configure it for use in their portal. If support for an application should be removed, click Delete next to the application in the list shown in the Available node. The Update Templates button looks on the web gallery if there is any update for the templates installed.

sysadmin 15

The Upload node allows you to upload a .zip application file. Those files are provided by Radiant Logic. Note that if you remove an application template from the list, if a tenant administrator has already configured an application with it, the application is not removed from the tenant portal.

sysadmin 17


Tenant Administrator

CFS supports a multitenancy architecture allowing each configured tenant to manage their own groups, users, identity providers (authentication systems), applications and portal.

The CFS tenant administrator can configure the groups, users, identity providers and applications applicable for their portal.

Dashboard

In the Dashboard, Global View section, the tenant administrator sees a list of all applications configured for the portal and their status: enabled or disabled.

dashboard 1

The Certificates section, wil display a list of all certificates used throughout the configuration. From this screen, it is also possible to download the public key of each certificate. For details on certificates and how they are used by CFS, please see Certificates.

General Settings

On the Authentication tab, you can define the lifespan of the cookie created when a user authenticates (default is 8 hours). You can also define the level of assurance associated with the tenant administration dashboard. The default assurance level is "Some" and can be changed from the "Level of Assurance" drop-down list. If a tenant administrator logs in with an authentication method that does not meet this level, they are denied access to the administration dashboard. If the Level of Assurance is changed and the currently logged in tenant administrator did not log in with an authentication method that meets this level, they are immediately disconnected from the administration dashboard. The "Auto Login" setting lets you define the behavior you want for the user when they reset their password. In the case they change the password in the CFS UI, allowing the auto login tells CFS to automatically authenticate the users. They are then be redirected to the CFS portal.

settings general 1

On the Self-Registration tab, you can define the policy for allowing new users to register themselves for portal access. If this behavior is desired, click the "Allow" option until a green checkmark is displayed in the User self-registration section. All self-registered users are stored in the identity store below the indicated "Users Target OU". If a tenant administrator wants to change the location of self-registered users, click Change Target OU. Locations defined in the Organization Units section of the dashboard are shown to select from. The location for the self-registered users must be a location below the global "People DN" defined for the tenant in the CFS System Admin Dashboard. This location/target OU in the identity store must allow insertions, otherwise creation of user accounts fails. The attributes required for self registration are defined for the tenant by the system administrator. Refer to the System Administration Guide for more information.

settings general 2

On the Challenge Questions tab, a tenant administrator can choose to activate challenge questions forcing a user to define answers to a given set of questions in order to be able to reset their password from the portal login screen. If this behavior is desired, click the "Activate" option until a green checkmark is displayed. Indicate the number of questions required for a user to answer for their account. This is the number of challenge questions that CFS is able to choose from when prompting the user for an answer during password resets. No matter how many number of questions are indicated here, the user must only answer one question correctly to go through the password reset process. However, CFS chooses which question to prompt the user with. The actual questions the user can choose from are defined on the Challenge Questions node in the Settings section.

settings general 3

On the Others tab, a tenant administrator can choose to disable the access to the "My Groups" page on the end user portal.

settings general 4

Messaging Service

CFS supports Twilio as a messaging service for delivering passcodes to users. If this is enabled, users is able to receive their passcode via text message or phone call. You must have your own Twilio account to configure CFS.

  • Click the "Enable Twilio" option until a green checkmark is displayed.
  • Enter the Account SID and Auth Token associated with your Twilio account.
  • Enter the phone number from which you want the text/phone call to come from.
  • Enter the text message you want to send users in the SMS Message Format property.
  • Enter the identity store attribute containing the phone number for the users.

  • Click Save when you are finished.

settings twillio

Challenge Questions

On the "Challenge Questions" node, you can define which questions a user must answer correctly in order to reset their password. Some default questions are listed and if you want to create more, click the "New Challenge Question" button. The number of questions a user must answer correctly is defined on the General Settings node. After this is defined, the user must log in to their portal account and go to the Security section. Locate the Challenge Questions and click Edit. Click New Question to provide answers to the desired challenge questions. This enables the user to be able to reset their forgotten password from the portal login screen. It is important to note that even if a user is required to answer a certain number of questions, they are only be prompted to answer one question properly in order to reset their password from the portal login screen. CFS decides which is the one question (from the total number of challenge questions configured) that the user must answer successfully. If a user has not defined answers for the required number of challenge questions, when they choose the "Forgot your Password?" link from the portal login screen, they are automatically emailed a new password value as opposed to being able to reset the password value themselves.

Authentication

A tenant administrator configures the authentication methods they want to support for their portal in the Authentication section. There are five types of authentication systems available and one or more can be activated. For more details on how to configure each identity provider, please refer the Identity Providers section.

Applications

Configured

For more details on each application, please refer to the Applications guide. You can use the "Gallery" to choose what application you want to configure using a template. If your system administrator has provided you with an application packages (.zip file), you can click Upload the custom package from Radiant Logic and select the file you have.

apps upload

This guide explains the different feature of the application configuration pages. Anything specific to an application is described in the Applications section.

Group Sets

Group sets are a way to categorize different applications in your portal. The value of the group set property you define for the application indicates which "tab" the application icon appears on in the portal.

For example, the default tab in the portal is titled: Applications. This is where all configured/available applications appear in the portal. If you wanted to categorize some of the applications to appear on a different tab, you can enter a name in the group set property for those applications and a new tab displays in the portal accordingly.

Access Rules

By default, an application has no restriction on the group the user is member of. You can specify the list of group of users who have access to your application by unchecking the option Allow All Users, clicking the red "+" button, and selecting a group. These groups allow member having access to the application (unless further security layer like LOA or COT or Filter blocks the access).

Also, when creating a new application, CFS automatically creates a group associated and all Access Requests go in this group. Click the Application Group link to manage this group.

apps access rules

Filter

A user can be authorized to access an application based on certain attributes in their profile which are stored in the identity store, come from the pass-through rules in each identity provider or the Circle of Trust rules. This criteria is defined on the Filter tab. Define a filter that dictates which criteria are required for a user to be qualified to access this application. Any user whose profile attributes do not match the indicated criteria is not authorized to access the application. In the example shown below, only users that have an "l" attribute with a value of "novato" and the attribte "Building" (CoT rules) with the value "buildinga" are authorized by CFS to access this application.

apps filter

Certificate

CFS generates a certificate for each new tenant. This certificate is used by default for each application of the tenant. It means, all the applications of the same tenant use the same certificate (unless changed using the following guide). To change the certificate used by application, open the "Certificate" tab in the application configuration and check the option "Use a dedicated certificate".

apps certificate

You now have two options.

  • Upload a certificate private and public key - If you upload a "full" certificate, you must provide the password that is used to sign the tokens. This option stores the certificate (private and public keys) in the FID.
  • Upload a certificate public key - This option stores only the public key of the certificate in the FID. This is the most secure option because, in order to sign the tokens, each CFS machine looks into the Windows Certificate Vault of the computer in order to get the certificate private key.

The "Gallery" section contains all the application templates made available by the system administrator.

apps gallery

Click Configure next to a template to create an application using this template.

Circle of Trust

For an introduction to Circle of Trust, see the Concepts section of this guide.

Based on the location of the user, CFS adds a new claim to the user session that can be used to restrict access to sensitive applications.

apps cot

The "Attribute Name" is the name of the claim that is stored in the session. You can use this name as an "attribute" when creating a filter for an application.

To create a new CoT rule, click Add a new rule.
