A Windows NT token–based application is an Internet Information Services (IIS) application that has been written to use traditional Windows native authorization mechanisms. This type of application is not able to consume Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS) claims.

Membership in the Administrators local group, or equivalent, is the minimum required to complete this procedure. Review details about using the appropriate accounts and group memberships at https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=83477.

You can use the following procedure to add a Windows NT token–based application to the Federation Service trust policy.
