Active Directory with Windows Server 2016 - Understanding AD FS

The video tutorial explains how Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS) can be used to enable Single Sign-On (SSO) in different scenarios: within a single organization, between businesses, and with online services. It details the process of token exchange and authentication through federation servers and proxies, highlighting the trust relationships necessary for accessing resources across different domains.

What is the role of the federation service proxy in a single organization using ADFS?

• It directly authenticates the client.

• It acts as an intermediary between the client and the federation server.

• It stores the client's credentials.

• It provides direct access to the web server.

In a business-to-business federation, what does a one-way trust relationship imply?

• Both companies can access each other's resources.

• Only the resource domain can access the account domain's resources.

• Neither company can access the other's resources.

• Only the account domain can access the resource domain's resources.

How does an internal client obtain a token in a business-to-business federation scenario?

• By getting it from their own account federation server.

• By directly contacting the resource domain's web server.

• By obtaining it from the resource domain's federation server.

• By bypassing the federation server entirely.

What is the first step for an internal client to access an online service using ADFS?

• Contacting the web application server directly.

• Getting a token from their own account federation server.

• Obtaining a token from the online service's federation server.

• Directly accessing the online service.

How does the online federation server recognize the client's token in an ADFS online service scenario?

• It does not recognize the token.

• It recognizes the pre-established relationship with the client's network.

• It verifies the token with the client's account federation server.

• It checks the token against a local database.
