perform.
•
The bottom section, is used to manage the Method configuration entities for the policy
flows.
Use the Method Configuration section to define the methods to emulate your business
model of how authenticate, authorize users and deal with session accounting and
information.
This is the second step you need to perform.

route requests to the policy flows that are defined in the bottom section.
