Configure the Access Portal for SAML Authentication with OneLogin

The steps to configure the Access Portal for SAML authentication with OneLogin are different based on the version of Fireware that you have.

The WatchGuard Access Portal is a subscription service, before you can enable the Access Portal feature and configure it on your Firebox, you must add an Access Portal license to your Firebox feature key.
