After you have installed the Liberty identity provider for Novell® eDirectoryTM software, your next step is to set up a Liberty identity provider (Liberty IDP) site. You cannot run Liberty unless you set up an identity provider site.
IMPORTANT: As part of the Liberty IDP configuration, the IDP references information about the service provider (SP). Therefore, you should install and configure an SP in your Liberty environment you complete your Liberty IDP configuration. For information about SPs, see Installing and Configuring a Sample Service Provider .
This chapter explains the tasks you need to complete to set up a basic Liberty identity provider site.
