Create Links to Initiate Single Sign-on (optional)

For SAML 2.0 and WS-Federation, if a user visits the relying party before visiting the asserting party, establish hard-coded links. The hard-coded links redirect the user to the asserting party to fetch the authentication context. This authentication context consists of the characteristics that enable the relying party to understand how the user was authenticated.
