ClearPass local admin login with SSO enabled

  • 1.  ClearPass local admin login with SSO enabled

    Posted Jun 24, 2020 01:40 PM

    I have SSO enabled for GuestOperator, but would like to enable for Policy Manager. 

    How can I log into Policy Manager with a local admin account when SSO is enabled?

    I am redirected to our SSO sign-in page, of course, so I don't see a way I could use an account local to ClearPass.

     

    Thanks in advance!

    You cannot. You'd have to disable the SSO configuration.

    I see. So, if my IDP is down or unreachable for some reason, I am locked out of ClearPass (assuming SSO is enabled for Policy Manager).

    Yes, it's no different than any other SP.

    Hello.

    From the CLI, you can enter the following although this will disable sso and you will need to reconfigure partially in the SSO configuration section before it can be used again.

     system sso-reset

    Just learned this from TAC tonight when I got kicked out of my LAB environment. 

    Thanks
