NAME

mdquery - Query Shibboleth metadata

SYNOPSIS

mdquery -e entity [ -a app ] [ -nostrict ]

mdquery -e entity -r role -p protocol [ -a app ]
[ -ns namespace ] [ -nostrict ]

DESCRIPTION

mdquery queries and displays Shibboleth SP metadata. It is primarily a debugging tool to use in conjunction with advice from the Shibboleth mantaininers. It can display either the metadata for an entity or the metadata for a particular role.

OPTIONS

-a app

Specifies the application ID for which to retrieve metadata. If not given the default is "default".

-e entity

Specifies the entity ID for which to show metadata. Normally this is the entity descriptor ID for an entity with which one is having a problem (such as the entity ID for the local SP).

-nostrict

Relax the strictness of checking (such as of expiration dates).

-ns namespace

When retrieving metadata for a particular role, specify the namespace. If not given, the default is the SAML20MD namespace.

-p protocol

Specify a protocol when retrieving metadata for a particular role. Normally one would use the -saml10 , -saml11 , or -saml2 options to specify the protocol name, but this option allows an arbitrary protocol to be specified.

-saml10

Specify a protocol of SAML 1.0.

-saml11

Specify a protocol of SAML 1.1.

-saml2

Specify a protocol of SAML 2.0.

-r role

Retrieve the metadata for a particular role. Normally one would use the -idp , -aa , -pdp , or -sp options to specify the role name, but this option allows an arbitrary role to be specified.

-idp

Specify a role of IDPSSODescriptor.

-aa

Specify a role of AttributeAuthorityDescriptor.

-pdp

Specify a role of PDPDescriptor.

-sp

Specify a role of SPSSODescriptor.
