Reader Service URL

The Reader Service URL is used by the service provider. The service provider redirects the principal to this URL in order to find the preferred identity provider. Once found, the principal is redirected to the identity provider for single sign-on. The URL is defined as the value for the Reader Service URL attribute when an authentication domain is created. It is formatted as http://common-domain-host:port/deployment-uri/transfer where common-domain-host:port refers to the machine on which the Common Domain Services for Federation Management are installed and deployment-uri tells the web container where to look for information specific to the application (such as classes or JARs). The default URI is amcommon.
