Introduction

This document provides instructions on how configure Azure AD join using IBM® Security Verify as the Identity Provider.

You need following Prerequisites:

  • Azure AD with administrator access
  • Windows device with Powershell and Microsoft Online Services Module installed.
  • IBM Security Verify domain with administrator access.

Complete the following tasks:

  • Azure Active Directory
    • Enable device joining
    • Configure a federated Azure AD Domain
    • Provision user to Azure AD with Powershell commands
  • IBM Security Verify
    • Configure Microsoft 365 application (WS-Federation)

Enabling device joining and configuring a federated Azure AD domain

Enabling device joining

  1. Login to the Azure portal https://aad.portal.azure.com/.
  2. Configure the device settings as shown below to allow user to join device to Azure AD, disable the MFA settings at Azure AD side to avoid double MFA.

  1. [Optional] Enable automatic Intune enrollment. During Azure AD join, the computer is automatically enrolled to Intune with the following configurations.
  • From the Azure portal, click Mobility (MDM and MAM) > Microsoft Intune
1536
  • Set All for MDM user scope and save the settings.

Configuring a federated Azure AD domain

  1. In the Azure portal, create a custom domain. For example, ibm.icu. Ensure that it is verified. The custom domain is required to set up a federated Azure domain with a third party federation service. The main domain with onmicrosoft.com suffix does not support federated domain configuration.

  1. Install Windows Powershell and Microsoft Online Services Module on the Windows machine.

  2. Execute the following command in the Powershell command console:

Connect-MsolService

It prompts a login.

  1. Specify the Azure admin user credential. This is the admin user upn with the onmicrosoft.com suffix.
  2. After a successful login, execute the following command in the Powershell command console to create a federated domain with the ISV tenant:
    (Please update the tenant hostname to your tenanthost accordingly, -DomainName ibm.icu is the custom domain created in step 1; -SigningCertificate is the public cert of the default cert of your tenant:
