<para>
This manual page describes the configuration of the IPA Provider
for
<citerefentry>
<refentrytitle>sssd</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>8</manvolnum>
</citerefentry>.
For a detailed syntax reference, please refer to the <quote>FILE FORMAT</quote> section of the
<citerefentry>
<refentrytitle>sssd.conf</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>5</manvolnum>
</citerefentry> manual page
</para>
<para>
The IPA provider is a backend useful to connect to an IPA server.
(see freeipa.org for information about IPa servers).
It requires that the machine has been joined to the IPA domain,
and configuration is almost entirely self discovered and obtained
directly from the server.
</para>
<para>
The IPA provider also accepts the same options used by the
<citerefentry>
<refentrytitle>sssd-ldap</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>5</manvolnum>
</citerefentry> identity provider and the
<citerefentry>
<refentrytitle>sssd-krb5</refentrytitle>
<manvolnum>5</manvolnum>
</citerefentry> authentication provider.
But it is not recommended to set these options and it is not necessary.
