 The entrypoint script outputs SAML2 metadata to the container log at start time. This metadata refers to the instance's base URL, e.g., `https://example.com`. Browsers must be able to access the instance over HTTPS.

 ## Configuration files
 
 The `%%REPO%%` image stores its configuration in /etc/satosa. This configuration must persist among instances, particularly the SAML2 entity ID (derived from the proxy's base URL by default) and related keying material. [Use volumes, bind mounts, or custom images](https://docs.docker.com/storage/) to maintain this configuration.

 ## Environment variables
 
-The entrypoint script uses environment variables to generate the initial configuration, which sets SATOSA up as a SAML2 proxy between the free [SAMLtest.ID](https://samltest.id/) test service provider and test identity provider. All of the environment variables are optional.
+The entrypoint script uses environment variables to generate the initial configuration, which requires customization. All of the environment variables are **OPTIONAL**.
 
-The environment variables' values can be read from [Docker secrets](https://docs.docker.com/engine/swarm/secrets/). Append `_FILE` to the variable name (e.g., `STATE_ENCRYPTION_KEY_FILE`), and set it to the pathname of the corresponding secret (e.g., `/run/secrets/state_encryption_key`).

 ### `BASE_URL`
 
-SATOSA must be hosted at the root of the website. This environment variable optionally specifies the website's base URL, which defaults to `http://example.com`. If set, the base URL *must* be a method plus a hostname without any trailing slash or path components, e.g., `https://idproxy.example.com`, not `https://idproxy.example.com/` nor `https://idproxy.example.com/satosa`.

 ### `STATE_ENCRYPTION_KEY`
 
 SATOSA uses encrypted cookies to track the progress of an authentication flow. This environment variable optionally sets the state cookies' encryption key. If set, the state encryption key *must* be an alphanumeric value, e.g., `12345SameAsMyLuggage`. If not specified, a new random 32-character key will be generated.
 
 ### `SAML2_BACKEND_DISCO_SRV`
 
-When part of a SAML2 multilateral federation, SATOSA will ask the user to choose an identity provider using a SAML discovery service. This environment variable optionally sets the discovery service URL, which defaults to [SeamlessAccess](https://seamlessaccess.org/).

 ### `SAML2_BACKEND_CERT` and `SAML2_BACKEND_KEY`
 
-SATOSA's SAML2 backend acts like a service provider (relying party), requesting authentication by and attributes from the user's identity provider. It uses public key cryptography to sign authentication requests and decrypt responses. These optional environment variables hold the backend's paired public and private keys in [the PEM format](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Privacy-Enhanced_Mail). If not specified, a new 2048-bit RSA key-pair will be generated using the hostname part of `BASE_URL`.
+SATOSA's default SAML back-end microservice acts like a service provider (relying party), requesting authentication by and attributes from the user-selected identity provider. The microservice uses public key cryptography to sign authentication requests and decrypt responses. These environment variables provide the requisite keying material in [the PEM format](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Privacy-Enhanced_Mail). If not specified, a new 2048-bit RSA key-pair will be generated using the hostname part of `BASE_URL`.
 
 ### `SAML2_FRONTEND_CERT` and `SAML2_FRONTEND_KEY`
 
-SATOSA's SAML2 frontend acts like an identity provider (credential service provider), processing authentication requests from and returning user attributes to trusted websites. It uses public key cryptography to sign authentication responses. These optional environment variables hold the frontend's paired public and private keys, also in the PEM format. If not specified, a new 2048-bit RSA key-pair will be generated using the hostname part of `BASE_URL`.
