            This manual page describes the configuration of the IPA provider
            for

        <para>
            The IPA provider is a back end used to connect to an IPA server.
            (Refer to the freeipa.org web site for information about IPA servers.)
            This provider requires that the machine be joined to the IPA domain;
            configuration is almost entirely self-discovered and obtained
            directly from the server.
        </para>
        <para>
            The IPA provider 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 with some exceptions described
            below.
        </para>
        <para>
            However, it is neither necessary nor recommended to set these options.
            IPA provider can also be used as an access and chpass provider. As an
            access provider it uses HBAC (host-based access control) rules. Please
            refer to freeipa.org for more information about HBAC. No configuration
            of access provider is required on the client side.
        </para>
        <para>
            The IPA provider will use the PAC responder if the Kerberos tickets
            of users from trusted realms contain a PAC. To make configuration
            easier the PAC responder is started automatically if the IPA ID
            provider is configured.

            if it is configured explicitly or implicitly.

        <para>
            If the option 'subdomains_provider = ipa' is found in the
            domain section of sssd.conf, the IPA subdomains provider is
            configured explicitly, and all subdomain requests are sent to the
            IPA server if necessary.
        </para>
        <para>
            If the option 'subdomains_provider' is not set in the domain
            section of sssd.conf but there is the option 'id_provider = ipa',
            the IPA subdomains provider is configured implicitly. In this case,
            if a subdomain request fails and indicates that the server does not
            support subdomains, i.e. is not configured for trusts, the IPA
            subdomains provider is disabled. After an hour or after the IPA
            provider goes online, the subdomains provider is enabled again.
