Configure the SSO Tickets in BizTalk Server
You can use Enterprise Single Sign-On (SSO) Administration MMC or the command line to control ticket behavior for the entire single sign-on system. Using this tools, you can allow tickets and validate SSO tickets.
Before you begin
If SSO Administration is installed on a remote computer, you can run a remote IssueTicket operation. All traffic between the SSO Administration module and the Runtime module (ENTSSO service) is encrypted.
Using the ssomanage.exe command line utility, you can enter the ticket timeout at the Affiliate Application level. You can do this only when an update of the application is made, not when the application is created.
Only users in the SSO Administrator group can configure tickets at the SSO system-level and at the Affiliate Application level.
If ticketing is disabled at the system-level, it can't be used at the Affiliate Application level. It's possible to enable tickets at the system level, and disable them at the Affiliate Application level.
If validation is enabled at the system-level, tickets must be validated at the Affiliate Application level. It's possible to disable validation at the system-level, and enable it at the Affiliate Application level.
If ticket timeout is entered at the system-level and the Affiliate Application level, the one entered at the Affiliate Application level determines the ticket expiration time.
For more information about tickets and tickets validation, see SSO Tickets.
