| Review the hardware, software, certificate, Domain Name System (DNS), attribute store, and client requirements for deploying AD FS in your organization. | Appendix A: Reviewing AD FS Requirements |
| According to your design plan, install one or more federation servers in the corporate network or in the perimeter network. Note: The Web SSO design requires only one federation server to function successfully. A single federation server acts in both the claims provider role and the relying party role. |  Checklist: Setting Up a Federation Server |
