Description of problem: appliance_console does support external_auth configuration only with IPA. It would be easier for user to configure ext_auth if it is enhanced to support configuring/unconfiguring ext_auth with LDAP, SAML, AD. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 5.7.0.9-beta2.1.20161101182054_eb0afaa How reproducible: always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. ssh to appliance and launch 'appliance_console ' 2. check for the option to "Configure External Authentication (httpd)" 3. Check that it asks the specifications only related to IPA, as mentioned below: "Configure External Authentication (httpd) IPA Server Parameters: Enter the IPA Server Hostname:" Expected results: It would be easier for user to configure ext_auth if it is enhanced to support ext_auth with LDAP, SAML, AD. Additional Info: external_authentication other than IPA is now needs to be configured manually by updating apache configuration, sssd files etc.. http://file.rdu.redhat.com/abellott/manageiq_docs/master/auth/ldap.html
