Select ‘Create a new Federation Farm’

Note:

You create an Active Directory Federation Services (ADFS)-enabled Web server farm when you want to balance the load of incoming federated access requests that are made to one or more protected applications. The obvious benefits that can be obtained from a Web server farm are fault tolerance for the hosted applications and a possible increase in client-side browser performance. To client computers, the Web server farm performs like a single Web server servicing a highly scalable federated application.
