| 16 | +# Tutorial: Configure Cato Networks for automatic user provisioning |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +This tutorial describes the steps you need to do in both Cato Networks and Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) to configure automatic user provisioning. When configured, Azure AD automatically provisions and de-provisions users and groups to [Cato Networks](https://www.catonetworks.com/) using the Azure AD Provisioning service. For important details on what this service does, how it works, and frequently asked questions, see [Automate user provisioning and deprovisioning to SaaS applications with Azure Active Directory](../app-provisioning/user-provisioning.md). |
| 19 | + |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | +## Capabilities supported |
| 22 | +> [!div class="checklist"] |
| 23 | +> * Create users in Cato Networks |
| 24 | +> * Remove users in Cato Networks when they do not require access anymore |
| 25 | +> * Keep user attributes synchronized between Azure AD and Cato Networks |
| 26 | +> * Provision groups and group memberships in Cato Networks |
| 27 | +
|
| 28 | + |
| 29 | +## Prerequisites |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +The scenario outlined in this tutorial assumes that you already have the following prerequisites: |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | +* [An Azure AD tenant](../develop/quickstart-create-new-tenant.md) |
| 34 | +* A user account in Azure AD with [permission](../roles/permissions-reference.md) to configure provisioning (for example, Application Administrator, Cloud Application administrator, Application Owner, or Global Administrator). |
| 35 | +* A [Cato Networks](https://www.catonetworks.com/) account. |
| 36 | +* An admin account in Cato Networks with Admin permissions. |
| 37 | +* License with a sufficient number of users. |
| 38 | + |
| 39 | + |
| 40 | +## Step 1. Plan your provisioning deployment |
| 41 | +1. Learn about [how the provisioning service works](../app-provisioning/user-provisioning.md). |
| 42 | +1. Determine who will be in [scope for provisioning](../app-provisioning/define-conditional-rules-for-provisioning-user-accounts.md). |
| 43 | +1. Determine what data to [map between Azure AD and Cato Networks](../app-provisioning/customize-application-attributes.md). |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | +## Step 2. Configure Cato Networks to support provisioning with Azure AD |
| 46 | + |
| 47 | +1. Log in to your account in the [Cato Management Application](https://cc2.catonetworks.com). |
| 48 | +1. From the navigation menu, select **Configuration > Global Settings**, and then expand the **VPN Settings** section. |
| 49 | +  |
| 50 | +1. Expand the **SCIM Provisioning** section and enable SCIM provisioning by clicking on **Enable SCIM Provisioning**. |
| 51 | +  |
| 52 | +1. Copy the Base URL and Bearer Token from the Cato Management Application to the SCIM app in the Azure portal: |
| 53 | + 1. In the Cato Management Application (from the **SCIM Provisioning** section), copy the Base URL. |
| 54 | + 1. In the Cato Networks SCIM app in the Azure portal, in the **Provisioning** tab, paste the base URL in the **Tenant URL** field. |
| 55 | +  |
| 56 | + 1. In the Cato Management Application (from the **SCIM Provisioning** section), click **Generate Token** and copy the bearer token. |
| 57 | + 1. In the Cato Networks SCIM app in the Azure portal, paste the bearer token in the **Secret Token** field. |
| 58 | +  |
| 59 | +1. In the Cato Management Application (from the **SCIM Provisioning** section), click **Save**. SCIM Provisioning between your Cato account and Azure AD is configured. |
| 60 | +  |
| 61 | +1. Test the connection between the Azure SCIM app and the Cato Cloud. In the Cato Networks SCIM apps in the Azure portal, in the **Provisioning** tab, click **Test Connection**. |
| 62 | + |
| 63 | + |
| 64 | +## Step 3. Add Cato Networks from the Azure AD application gallery |
| 65 | + |
| 66 | +Add Cato Networks from the Azure AD application gallery to start managing provisioning to Cato Networks. Learn more about adding an application from the gallery [here](../manage-apps/add-application-portal.md). |
| 67 | + |
| 68 | +## Step 4. Define who will be in scope for provisioning |
| 69 | + |
| 70 | +The Azure AD provisioning service allows you to scope who will be provisioned based on assignment to the application and or based on attributes of the user / group. If you choose to scope who will be provisioned to your app based on assignment, you can use the following [steps](../manage-apps/assign-user-or-group-access-portal.md) to assign users and groups to the application. If you choose to scope who will be provisioned based solely on attributes of the user or group, you can use a scoping filter as described [here](../app-provisioning/define-conditional-rules-for-provisioning-user-accounts.md). |
| 71 | + |
| 72 | +* When assigning users and groups to Cato Networks, you must select a role other than **Default Access**. Users with the Default Access role are excluded from provisioning and will be marked as not effectively entitled in the provisioning logs. If the only role available on the application is the default access role, you can [update the application manifest](../develop/howto-add-app-roles-in-azure-ad-apps.md) to add more roles. |
| 73 | + |
| 74 | +* Start small. Test with a small set of users and groups before rolling out to everyone. When scope for provisioning is set to assigned users and groups, you can control provisioning by assigning one or two users or groups to the app. When scope is set to all users and groups, you can specify an [attribute based scoping filter](../app-provisioning/define-conditional-rules-for-provisioning-user-accounts.md). |
| 75 | + |
| 76 | + |
| 77 | +## Step 5. Configure automatic user provisioning to Cato Networks |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | +This section guides you through the steps to configure the Azure AD provisioning service to create, update, and disable users and/or groups in Cato Networks based on user and/or group assignments in Azure AD. |
| 80 | + |
| 81 | +### To configure automatic user provisioning for Cato Networks in Azure AD: |
| 82 | + |
| 83 | +1. Sign in to the [Azure portal](https://portal.azure.com). Select **Enterprise Applications**, then select **All applications**. |
| 84 | + |
| 85 | +  |
| 86 | + |
| 87 | +1. In the applications list, select **Cato Networks**. |
| 88 | + |
| 89 | +  |
| 90 | + |
| 91 | +1. Select the **Provisioning** tab. |
| 92 | + |
| 93 | +  |
| 94 | + |
| 95 | +1. Set the **Provisioning Mode** to **Automatic**. |
| 96 | + |
| 97 | +  |
| 98 | + |
| 99 | +1. Under the **Admin Credentials** section, input your Cato Networks Tenant URL and Secret Token. Click **Test Connection** to ensure Azure AD can connect to Cato Networks. If the connection fails, ensure your Cato Networks account has Admin permissions and try again. |
| 100 | + |
| 101 | +  |
| 102 | + |
| 103 | +1. In the **Notification Email** field, enter the email address of a person or group who should receive the provisioning error notifications and select the **Send an email notification when a failure occurs** check box. |
| 104 | + |
| 105 | +  |
| 106 | + |
| 107 | +1. Select **Save**. |
| 108 | + |
| 109 | +1. Under the **Mappings** section, select **Synchronize Azure Active Directory Users to Cato Networks**. |
| 110 | + |
| 111 | +1. Review the user attributes that are synchronized from Azure AD to Cato Networks in the **Attribute-Mapping** section. The attributes selected as **Matching** properties are used to match the user accounts in Cato Networks for update operations. If you choose to change the [matching target attribute](../app-provisioning/customize-application-attributes.md), you'll need to ensure that the Cato Networks API supports filtering users based on that attribute. Select the **Save** button to commit any changes. |
| 112 | + |
| 113 | + |Attribute|Type|Supported for filtering| |
| 114 | + |---|---|---| |
| 115 | + |userName|String|✓ |
| 116 | + |emails[type eq "work"].value|String| |
| 117 | + |active|Boolean| |
| 118 | + |externalId|String| |
| 119 | + |name.givenName|String| |
| 120 | + |name.familyName|String| |
| 121 | + |phoneNumbers[type eq "work"].value|String| |
| 122 | + |
| 123 | + |
| 124 | +1. Under the **Mappings** section, select **Synchronize Azure Active Directory Groups to Cato Networks**. |
| 125 | + |
| 126 | +1. Review the group attributes that are synchronized from Azure AD to Cato Networks in the **Attribute-Mapping** section. The attributes selected as **Matching** properties are used to match the groups in Cato Networks for update operations. Select the **Save** button to commit any changes. |
| 127 | + |
| 128 | + |Attribute|Type|Supported for filtering| |
| 129 | + |---|---|---| |
| 130 | + |displayName|String|✓ |
| 131 | + |externalId|String| |
| 132 | + |members|Reference| |
| 133 | + |
| 134 | +1. To configure scoping filters, refer to the following instructions provided in the [Scoping filter tutorial](../app-provisioning/define-conditional-rules-for-provisioning-user-accounts.md). |
| 135 | + |
| 136 | +1. To enable the Azure AD provisioning service for Cato Networks, change the **Provisioning Status** to **On** in the **Settings** section. |
| 137 | + |
| 138 | +  |
| 139 | + |
| 140 | +1. Define the users and/or groups that you would like to provision to Cato Networks by choosing the desired values in **Scope** in the **Settings** section. |
| 141 | + |
| 142 | +  |
| 143 | + |
| 144 | +1. When you're ready to provision, click **Save**. |
| 145 | + |
| 146 | +  |
| 147 | + |
| 148 | +This operation starts the initial synchronization cycle of all users and groups defined in **Scope** in the **Settings** section. The initial cycle takes longer to complete than next cycles, which occur approximately every 40 minutes as long as the Azure AD provisioning service is running. |
| 149 | + |
| 150 | +## Step 6. Monitor your deployment |
| 151 | +Once you've configured provisioning, use the following resources to monitor your deployment: |
| 152 | + |
| 153 | +* Use the [provisioning logs](../reports-monitoring/concept-provisioning-logs.md) to determine which users have been provisioned successfully or unsuccessfully |
| 154 | +* Check the [progress bar](../app-provisioning/application-provisioning-when-will-provisioning-finish-specific-user.md) to see the status of the provisioning cycle and how close it's to completion |
| 155 | +* If the provisioning configuration seems to be in an unhealthy state, the application will go into quarantine. Learn more about quarantine states [here](../app-provisioning/application-provisioning-quarantine-status.md). |
