Introduction
The purpose of the eduGAIN Connectivity Check is to identify eduGAIN Identity Providers (IdP) that are not properly configured. In particular, it checks if an IdP properly loads and consumes SAML2 metadata which contains the eduGAIN Service Providers (SP). The check results are published on the public eduGAIN Connectivity Check web page (https://technical.edugain.org/eccs/). The main purpose is to increase the service overall quality and user experience of the eduGAIN interfederation service by making federation and Identity Provider operators aware of configuration problems.

Status | UI Color | Description and results |
---|---|---|
ERROR | Red |
|
OK | Green | The IdP most likely correctly consumes eduGAIN metadata and returns a valid login page. This is no guarantee that login on this IdP works for all eduGAIN services but if the check is passed for an IdP, this is probable.
|
UNKNOWN | Yellow | The IdP can't be checked because the returned Login Page content is not recognized or the Login Page is always returned, also for the fake SP.
|
DISABLED | White | The IdP is excluded because it cannot be checked reliably. The Page Source column, when an entity is disabled, is populated with the reason for the disabling.
