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.
