Question

Citrix Netscaler > RADIUS > FortiAuthenticator > SAML > Azure ??

Hi,

I need to set up a FortiAuthenticator to accept Authentication requests from a Citrix Netscaler via RADIUS and then use Azure as the identity provider via SAML so that the MS Authenticator app can be used for 2FA.

Is this possible? If yes, do you know of any documentation or videos that show you how to do it?

Thank you in advance!

Hello Matt,

 

It is apparently not possible, unfortunately.

I could see the reddit forum and the answer, as you could see, is no :(.

 

Sorry about that.

Hi @Anthony_E,

I'm really sorry to have not responded sooner.

As you state, what I was asking is not possible as you can't translate a SAML assertion into a RADIUS message. The solution was to configure the Netscalers to communicate with MS via SAML directly, although this required an extra license which had to be paid for.

Thank you for your assistance.
