[Bogar, Lisa]

We would also be interested in any information anyone could provide that has worked through this with Banner 9.x

Subject: Banner 9.x and SAML / Shibb

Our ERP manager called attention to Ellucian's documentation indicating Banner 9.x can support SAML authentication rather than CAS. There' seems to be quite a caveat for Shibboleth IdP users though:

You can... change the configuration of Banner Admin Pages after deployment to use the SAML protocol for user authentication with EIS as the authentication server.
Note: If you are using an authentication server other than EIS, you must adapt these instructions accordingly.

We currently protect Banner and Banner-integrated apps with CAS.

Are there institutions or individuals on this list who:

(a) have made a written value / benefit calculation of switching Banner login from CAS to SAML in 9.x using Shibboleth IdP ? and/or

(b) worked through what "adaptations" of the instructions are necessary for use of Shibboleth IdP (rather than EIS) ?

and are willing to share them?
