Tutorial: Microsoft Entra integration with Cisco Cloud
In this tutorial, you'll learn how to integrate Cisco Cloud with Microsoft Entra ID. When you integrate Cisco Cloud with Microsoft Entra ID, you can:
- Control in Microsoft Entra ID who has access to Cisco Cloud.
- Enable your users to be automatically signed-in to Cisco Cloud with their Microsoft Entra accounts.
- Manage your accounts in one central location.
Prerequisites
To get started, you need the following items:
- A Microsoft Entra subscription. If you don't have a subscription, you can get a free account.
- Cisco Cloud single sign-on (SSO) enabled subscription.
Scenario description
In this tutorial, you configure and test Microsoft Entra single sign-on in a test environment.
- Cisco Cloud supports SP and IDP initiated SSO.
Add Cisco Cloud from the gallery
To configure the integration of Cisco Cloud into Microsoft Entra ID, you need to add Cisco Cloud from the gallery to your list of managed SaaS apps.
- Sign in to the Microsoft Entra admin center as at least a Cloud Application Administrator.
- Browse to Identity > Applications > Enterprise applications > New application.
- In the Add from the gallery section, type Cisco Cloud in the search box.
- Select Cisco Cloud from results panel and then add the app. Wait a few seconds while the app is added to your tenant.
Alternatively, you can also use the Enterprise App Configuration Wizard. In this wizard, you can add an application to your tenant, add users/groups to the app, assign roles, as well as walk through the SSO configuration as well. Learn more about Microsoft 365 wizards.
Configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO for Cisco Cloud
Configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO with Cisco Cloud using a test user called B.Simon. For SSO to work, you need to establish a link relationship between a Microsoft Entra user and the related user in Cisco Cloud.
To configure and test Microsoft Entra SSO with Cisco Cloud, perform the following steps:
- Configure Microsoft Entra SSO - to enable your users to use this feature.
- Create a Microsoft Entra test user - to test Microsoft Entra single sign-on with B.Simon.
- Assign the Microsoft Entra test user - to enable B.Simon to use Microsoft Entra single sign-on.
- Configure Cisco Cloud SSO - to configure the single sign-on settings on application side.
- Create Cisco Cloud test user - to have a counterpart of B.Simon in Cisco Cloud that is linked to the Microsoft Entra representation of user.
- Test SSO - to verify whether the configuration works.
Configure Microsoft Entra SSO
Follow these steps to enable Microsoft Entra SSO.
Sign in to the Microsoft Entra admin center as at least a Cloud Application Administrator.
Browse to Identity > Applications > Enterprise applications > Cisco Cloud > Single sign-on.
On the Select a single sign-on method page, select SAML.
On the Set up single sign-on with SAML page, click the pencil icon for Basic SAML Configuration to edit the settings.
On the Basic SAML Configuration section, If you wish to configure the application in IDP initiated mode, perform the following steps:
a. In the Identifier text box, type a URL using the following pattern:
<subdomain>.cisco.com
b. In the Reply URL text box, type a URL using the following pattern:
https://<subdomain>.cisco.com/sp/ACS.saml2
Click Set additional URLs and perform the following step if you wish to configure the application in SP initiated mode:
In the Sign-on URL text box, type a URL using the following pattern:
https://<subdomain>.cloudapps.cisco.com
Note
These values are not real. Update these values with the actual Identifier, Reply URL and Sign-on URL. Contact Cisco Cloud Client support team to get these values. You can also refer to the patterns shown in the Basic SAML Configuration section.
Your Cisco Cloud application expects the SAML assertions in a specific format, which requires you to add custom attribute mappings to your SAML token attributes configuration. The following screenshot shows the list of default attributes. Click Edit icon to open User Attributes dialog.
In addition to above, Cisco Cloud application expects few more attributes to be passed back in SAML response. In the User Claims section on the User Attributes dialog, perform the following steps to add SAML token attribute as shown in the below table:
Name Source Attribute country user.country company user.companyname a. Click Add new claim to open the Manage user claims dialog.
b. In the Name textbox, type the attribute name shown for that row.
c. Leave the Namespace blank.
d. Select Source as Attribute.
e. From the Source attribute list, type the attribute value shown for that row.
f. Click Ok
g. Click Save.
On the Set up Single Sign-On with SAML page, In the SAML Signing Certificate section, click copy button to copy App Federation Metadata Url and save it on your computer.
Create a Microsoft Entra test user
In this section, you'll create a test user called B.Simon.
- Sign in to the Microsoft Entra admin center as at least a User Administrator.
- Browse to Identity > Users > All users.
- Select New user > Create new user, at the top of the screen.
- In the User properties, follow these steps:
- In the Display name field, enter
B.Simon
. - In the User principal name field, enter the username@companydomain.extension. For example,
B.Simon@contoso.com
. - Select the Show password check box, and then write down the value that's displayed in the Password box.
- Select Review + create.
- In the Display name field, enter
- Select Create.
Assign the Microsoft Entra test user
In this section, you'll enable B.Simon to use single sign-on by granting access to Cisco Cloud.
- Sign in to the Microsoft Entra admin center as at least a Cloud Application Administrator.
- Browse to Identity > Applications > Enterprise applications > Cisco Cloud.
- In the app's overview page, select Users and groups.
- Select Add user/group, then select Users and groups in the Add Assignment dialog.
- In the Users and groups dialog, select B.Simon from the Users list, then click the Select button at the bottom of the screen.
- If you are expecting a role to be assigned to the users, you can select it from the Select a role dropdown. If no role has been set up for this app, you see "Default Access" role selected.
- In the Add Assignment dialog, click the Assign button.
Configure Cisco Cloud SSO
To configure single sign-on on Cisco Cloud side, you need to send the App Federation Metadata Url to Cisco Cloud support team. They set this setting to have the SAML SSO connection set properly on both sides.
Create Cisco Cloud test user
In this section, you create a user called Britta Simon in Cisco Cloud. Work with Cisco Cloud support team to add the users in the Cisco Cloud platform. Users must be created and activated before you use single sign-on.
Test SSO
In this section, you test your Microsoft Entra single sign-on configuration with following options.
SP initiated:
Click on Test this application, this will redirect to Cisco Cloud Sign on URL where you can initiate the login flow.
Go to Cisco Cloud Sign-on URL directly and initiate the login flow from there.
IDP initiated:
- Click on Test this application, and you should be automatically signed in to the Cisco Cloud for which you set up the SSO.
You can also use Microsoft My Apps to test the application in any mode. When you click the Cisco Cloud tile in the My Apps, if configured in SP mode you would be redirected to the application sign on page for initiating the login flow and if configured in IDP mode, you should be automatically signed in to the Cisco Cloud for which you set up the SSO. For more information about the My Apps, see Introduction to the My Apps.
Next steps
Once you configure Cisco Cloud you can enforce session control, which protects exfiltration and infiltration of your organization’s sensitive data in real time. Session control extends from Conditional Access. Learn how to enforce session control with Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps.
