   $trutsed_identity_provider_variable_name = Get-SPTrustedIdentityTokenIssuer -Identity "name_of_siteminder_trusted_identity_provider"
   

2. Enter the following command to add a claim type that is based on the last name of a user:

   $map2 = New-SPClaimTypeMapping -IncomingClaimType "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/claims/lastname" -IncomingClaimTypeDisplayName "role" -LocalClaimType "http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/claims/lastname"
