UAB in SIR / eduGAIN (RedIRIS federation entity)

UAB's entry in the Spanish national identity federation SIR, operated by RedIRIS, which is how UAB reaches eduGAIN. The EntityDescriptor at entityID https://www.rediris.es/sir/uabidp carries OrganizationName "Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona" and shibmd:Scope uab.es, and is present in the SIR aggregate at https://www.rediris.es/sir/shib1metadata.xml (HTTP 200, 336 entities) and in the eduGAIN entity listing as id 680530. Its SSO, SLO and attribute-authority endpoints are all per-institution paths on sir.rediris.es, so this entity is federation-operated: UAB's identity, RedIRIS's engineering. Recorded, never deleted — a federation is shared by definition, and this is one of the strongest institution-linked surfaces a university has.
