Description Matt Werner 2020-10-05 17:54:40 UTC

Document URL: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_satellite/6.8-beta/html/administering_red_hat_satellite/chap-red_hat_satellite-administering_red_hat_satellite-configuring_external_authentication

Additional information: 

Need to add this abbreviated matrix (only the options in green) to the documentation: https://redhatmbu.aha.io/epics/SAT-E-452

The docs should also refer to a KCS article (forthcoming) that goes into the specific support tiers of all supported, tested, or unsupported IdM methods. 

The docs should also remove any information about non-Tier 1 (aka supported) authentication methods. The full support matrix is here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1QSVwnjPPoTbDNMVm6dGzDE0gNfPoLrBFsAwXgVKOUn4/edit#gid=0

Let me know if you have any questions or need anything clarified.

Hi @mawerner 
Would it be possible to get updated table for Satellite 6.13, or has nothing changed since then? Thanks!

I'm not aware of any such article having been actually created.

Needs updating.


Also, Matt Werner is no longer the Content Strategist for Satellite. I hope no one objects if I clear the needinfo for him while I investigate whom to ask instead.
