Access Gateway and SNI support

Access Gateway and SNI support

Introduction

Server Name Indication (SNI) is an extension to the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol by which a client can mention which hostname it is attempting to connect to at the start of the TLS handshaking process. This enables the server to select the correct virtual domain and corresponding TLS certificate at the very beginning of the process of establishing secure communication with the client.

The purpose of this document is to help users enabling SNI and getting benefits of it in secure TLS communication of Access Gateway (AG) (pre NAM 5.0). There are two such channels available at AG.

1. Between browser and AG.
2. Between AG and backend webserver.

Deprecation for IDM Driver for Office365

Deprecation and migration plan for NetIQ Identity Manager Driver for Office 365

Micro Focus is deprecating the Office 365 driver for NetIQ Identity Manager. This driver has been superseded by the Azure AD driver, which is available at no extra cost to all Office 365 driver customers.

The Office 365 driver was developed at a time when Microsoft did not offer a comprehensive set of APIs to access Office 365. As the Azure platform evolved, Microsoft updated its API set to provide efficient and secure access to the platform. In response, Micro Focus developed the Azure Active Directory Driver: a faster, more scalable, and more secure driver that supports both Azure AD and Office 365.

Micro Focus have continued to support the older Office 365 driver to allow customers sufficient time for migration to the new Azure AD driver. However, Microsoft has announced that they are deprecating some of the underlying technology, which will make the driver non-functional in some scenarios.

As a result, Micro Focus are urging all Office 365 driver customers to migrate to the new Azure AD driver as soon as possible.
