Setup AD Federation Services with Office 365

  • Статья

ADFS

I have been meaning to post this up for sometime now but just have not got around to it and with the new version of Office 365 going live and the fact we are now seeing quite a few organizations adopting Microsoft Cloud Services with SSO I thought this would be an ideal time to post this up.

At the moment if you require Single-Sign On with Office 365 the only way of doing this is by using Active Directory Federation Services although in the near future Microsoft will be announcing other ways for you to do this with-out the requirement for AD FS but I will cover that at a later date ;)

If you activate Active Directory Federation Services within your Office 365 Tenancy it is recommended that you keep at least 1 account using your tenancy.onmicrosoft.com domain so that if your AD FS Service should fail you still have the ability to authenticate and sign-in  to your tenancy.

So, make sure that you have verified your private domain in your Office 365 Tenancy and then setup a sub-domain which will act as your AD FS accessible domain the sub-domain that will be published for AD FS does not really have to be the same as a domain your using with-in Office 365 so for those of you who maybe have long wait times for DNS changes you may wish to use a domain with the DNS Management you control.

  • Create a new A Record for adfs.domain.tld in internal DNS pointing to Internal IP of NLB Cluster or/ Single ADFS Server
  • Create a new A Record for adfs.domain.tld in public DNS pointing to Public IP that you have assigned for ADFS Traffic.

Ensure Firewall Rule points to Internal IP of NLB Cluster Address of your ADFS Server or/ Proxy Server if you have chosen to use an AD FS Proxy.

Install Microsoft Online Services Tools

Add UPN Suffix to Active Directory & Configure User

UPNs used for identity federation can only contain letters, numbers, periods, dashes and underscores.

  •  Open AD Domains and Trusts tool
  • Right-click AD Domains and Trusts and click Properties
  • On the UPN suffixes tab, type the alternative UPN suffix for the forest and then click Add
  • Open user properties, navigate to Account Tab.
  • Select the external namespace UPN for the “User logon name”

Simple Topology: - for HA please add multiple AD FS / Proxy Servers and use a Network Load Balancer (NLB) ADFS_Drawing

 

Note: for Site DR you can add a READ-ONLY ADFS Server within your Secondary Data Center.

  • Run - Convert-MSOLDomainToFederated –domainname domain.com -SupportMultipleDomain
  • Run - Update-MSOLFederatedDomain –domainname domain.com

Verify SSO works with User Accounts for Federation Services

If you have made the changes to your users UPN before a scheduled Directory Sync has taken place, then for this to complete before testing SSO or you can force a Directory Sync by logging on to your DirSync Server and then navigate to C:Program FilesMicrosoft Online Directory Sync and then launch configuration shell by typing in  .DirSyncConfigShell.psc1

Once the configuration shell has launched, type in the following command: Start-OnlineCoexistenceSync

When the Directory Sync has completed, Logon to Microsoft Online Portal and ensure that the user account ID has now changed from the .onmicrosoft.com account to the federated domain and then Logon to portal.microsoftonline.com with a federated user to test Single Sign On (SSO)

Note: You can test SSO services using Microsoft RCA - https://www.testexchangeconnectivity.com/

James.
