- Access the service provider you just created and expand Local & Outbound Authentication Configuration.
- Select Advanced Configuration to configure multi-factor authentication.
- Click Add Authentication Step. Clicking this again will enable you to create another authentication step.
- Select whether this is a Subject Step, Attribute Step or both. In the case of multiple steps, you can have only one step as the subject step and one as the attribute step.

Basic authentication allows you to authenticate users from the enterprise user store while FIDO authenticates you externally.
- Click the Update button. This will return you to the previous screen with your newly configured authentication steps.
