You must generate SAML metadata on the Unified Access Gateway appliance and exchange metadata with the server to establish the mutual trust required for smart card authentication.
The Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML) is an XML-based standard that is used to describe and exchange authentication and authorization information between different security domains. SAML passes information about users between identity providers and service providers in XML documents called SAML assertions. In this scenario, Unified Access Gateway is the identity provider and the server is the service provider.
