    1. ASP.NET impersonation 
    2. Windows authentication
  3. Disable all other parameters. 
  4. Open the Self Service Web.config configuration file (C: \inetpub\wwwroot\iidselfservice\Web.config). 

  5. Insert Windows in the mode parameter of the amAuthentication tag.

    Please leave the loginUrl parameter unchanged. This parameter will not be used during Windows authentication.

    2. The enableLogout parameter (optional) activates Self Service logout. 

      <amAuthentication mode="Saml" loginUrl="http://saml.demo.local/iidsamlidp" enableLogout="true"/>
