Federated Authentication Overview
Federated User Authentication enables organizations to use their own Identity Provider (IdP) as the source to verify the identity and to authenticate a user before permitting them to select a remote workstation. Once the desired workstation is selected, the user needs to provide the username and password to authenticate at the remote workstation.
