== About the federation ==
Hungarian Research and Educational Federation ('''HREF''') is a SAML2-based Identity Federation of Hungarian higher education and research institutions, public collections and other content providers. For the end-users, the federation aims to be transparent, therefore the login procedure is communicated as '''''eduID login'''''.
=== Contacts ===
The Federation is operated by [http://www.niif.hu NIIF Institute] as a Federation Operator. Questions, concerns or any kind of requests about the Federation should be directed to any of the following addresses:
The Federation itself is not a legal entity, Members and Partners establish a legal connection to the Federation Operator. Any legal claims between Members and/or Partners shall be directed to the organisation operating the Identity Provider or the Service Provider.
The Service Agreement between the Federation Operator and Partner is available '''[[http:File:Href//www.eduid.hu/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/href-contract-partner.doc|here]]'''.
== Technical information ==
=== Metadata ===
[[HREFMetadataSpecEN | Metadata Specification]] is maintained in a separate document.
== How to join ==
=== Production federation ===
In order to join the production federation as a Partner, you need to send the following information:
* SP metadata URL (HTTPS preferred)
* Name of the SP
* Brief description of the service
* Service URL
* Privacy policy URL
* Administrative and technical contact names and mail addresses (non-personal preferred)
* Required and optional attributes
* Logo URL (optional)
* Helpdesk URL (optional)
This information should be sent to the Federation Operator (see [[#Contacts|above]]) in email. Two copies of the signed Service Agreement (available at http://eduid.hu/documents) should be sent by traditional post, one copy will be returned after counter-signing.
After the application has been reviewed by the Federation Operator, it is forwarded to the Members' Board. It usually takes 3-5 working days for the Board to accept the application, after which the entity metadata is be added to the production federation metadata.
=== Testing metadata ===
It is recommended that a new SP should be registered to the testing federation at first, which is much easier and a fully online process.
The following information is necessary to enter into the testing metadata:
* SP metadata URL (HTTPS preferred)
* Name of the SP
* Administrative and technical contact names and mail addresses (non-personal preferred)
* Required and optional attributes
You can ask for test accounts in our Virtual Home Organization. During testing, you might want to use the production federation metadata, because the VHO is present in both metadata files.
You do not need to re-register your entity to proceed to the production federation. If we have all the necessary information, the starting of the joining process is at your discretion.
