Domains
A Domain in Signum is a defined method of authentication for a group of users to authenticate to the Signum service. The method of authentication that is available depends on how the users are authenticating to the service defined in the table below. Multiple Domains can be defined to accommodate various use cases. For example, a SAML domain could be created for an organization's users/groups from an IDP like Azure Active Directory using the Windows Agent in attended mode, while a separate Local Users Domain could be created to authenticate a Linux build server.

Creating a new Domain
To create a new Domain, login to the Admin Web Console and navigate to Access>Domains and select the New button. A new window will appear allowing you to configure the Alias and Type for the new Domain.
New Domain Options
Option | Description |
---|---|
Alias | This is what users will use to reference this domain when logging in to the service. For example, with a Local Users Domain, a user with the username of “John” would login to the Domain with an alias name of “myDomain” by entering John@myDomain . For SAML and OAuth Domains the Alias can match the email domain of the users. For example, for an organization with emails formatted first.last@companyname.com, the alias could be “companyname.com” . |
