SSO integration with Active Directory - Save and restore option

A lot of companys are asking for SSO integration with Active Directory. Adding identifiers with Navigator for I is not easy when you have 600 users... The option "new identifiers based from" could be usefull if we could add the kerberos regystry in the process...

The other usefull option could be an expoprt/import option when we have to change the server. When SSO is already configured for 900 users, it could be great to save and restore on the new server.

    Thanks for your input. We agree that this idea has merit and would be a beneficial enhancement for IBM Navigator for i. IBM will use this Idea as input to planning, but no commitment is made or implied. This Idea will be updated in the future if IBM implements it. IBM will use votes and comments from others in the community to help prioritize this Idea.

    There is the Single Sign On (SSO) suite from IBM Lab Service that accomplish this: https://www.ibm.com/support/pages/ibm-i-security#assets

    But I really would like this to be natively integrated in the Navigator for i.
