Send your users an email with the URL to the Identity Server including the correct port number. The users specify the Identity Server URL in the MobileAccess app by tapping the menu in the upper left corner of the MobileAccess app, then tap Accounts > + to specify the URL of the Identity Server in the Account Providers field. The URL is:
https://Identity_server_dns_name:port
For example, https://idp.acme.com:8443
With Access Manager 4.5 Service Pack 3, the MobileAccess 2 app is released. This version of the app supports registering iOS devices using a QR code. Instead of typing the Identity Server URL, users can scan a QR code, and the URL gets populated. Along with the Identity Server URL, you can also provide a QR code to the users.
To generate the QR code, launch the QR Code Generator application and perform the following steps:
Specify the Identity Server URL and port in the QR code generator. For example, https://idp.acme.com:8443
The QR code gets generated.
Save the QR code.
Copy and paste the QR code in the email that you will send to the users.
NOTE:You can also use other application to generate the QR code.
The users launch the MobileAccess 2 app, tap the + button on the Sign In page. Then, click Use QR Code to Register, scan the QR code, and click Sign In to complete the registration process.
