Example 2: An SP prefers MFA but accepts SFA

An SP presents a list of authentication contexts in the order of preference (Comparison attribute omitted, applying the default value “exact”):

<samlp:RequestedAuthnContext>
  <saml:AuthnContextClassRef>https://refeds.org/profile/mfa</saml:AuthnContextClassRef>
<saml:AuthnContextClassRef>https://refeds.org/profile/sfa</saml:AuthnContextClassRef>
</samlp:RequestedAuthnContext>

An IdP responds SFA:

<saml:AuthnContext>
  <saml:AuthnContextClassRef>https://refeds.org/profile/sfa</saml:AuthnContextClassRef>
</saml:AuthnContext>

Note: according to the SAML 2.0 specification, an Identity Provider can present only one authentication context in the responseThis is NOT supported by the SAML standard. See the FAQ for alternatives.
