Specify whether introductions should be used.
Introductions is a feature that allows a service provider to identify which providers (within a
common domain) a user is logged into. The Allow Introductions check box is unchecked by
default. In order for single sign-on to work seamlessly, you must check this box and enter
values for the Application Domain and Common Domain.
NOTE:
In order for introductions to work, the identity provider and the service providers must agree on a
common domain.
The Common Domain is a DNS name that IDPs and SPs within a circle of trust have agreed
upon and/or obtained for use between each other.
