Did you configure container authentication and protect that endpoint? If 
not, then it's not going to work.

You may have tried, but no, you didn't. If you need help with Tomcat 
authentication, they have their own list.

Assuming you're using basic-auth, just point your browser at the ECP 
endpoint. If you don't get prompted, you don't have it working. Until you 
do, this is not a Shibboleth question and you need to go look at Tomcat's 
docs or their list.
