Remarks
Call this method to sign on to an RP application or to the IdP. You can specify null or an empty string for the relyingPartyIdentifier to sign on to the IdP. To sign on to an RP pass the SAML EntityId for the desired RP. This identifier can be read from the Id column of the DataTable exposed by the RelyingParties property. It can also be found from the RP’s metadata. You can also find the identifier on the AD FS 2.0 Management Console by expanding the Trust Relationships node, selecting Relying Party Trusts and noting the identifier in the Identifier column for the RP.
This method is called from the Page_Init and SignInButton_Click events in the default code-behind for the IdpInitiatedSignOn.aspx page. You can pass sign on parameters to support passive login, forced authentication, as well as preferred methods for authentication.
