A company has two SharePoint farms as described in the following table.
You need to process incoming server requests on HRFarm that originate from FinanceFarm.
What should you do? (Each correct answer presents part of the solution. Choose all that apply.)
A.
Configure both farms to use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) connections.
B.
Run the Windows PowerShell cmdlet New-SPTrustedSecurityTokenIssuer on a server in FinanceFarm.
C.
Run the Windows PowerShell cmdlet New-SPTrustedSecurityTokenIssuer on a server in HRFarm.
D.
Log on as a member of the Administrators group on a server in HRFarm.
E.
Run the Windows PowerShell cmdlet Get-SPTrustedSecurityTokenIssuer -Identity HRFarm on a server in
HRFarm.
Explanation:
To service incoming server-to-server requests from another SharePoint 2013 farm, you must configure the
SharePoint 2013 farm to trust the sending farm. Use the Windows PowerShell NewSPTrustedSecurityTokenIssuer cmdlet in SharePoint 2013 to configure the trust relationship by specifying the
JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) metadata endpoint of the sending farm.
To add the SharePoint STS of the SharePoint farm that has no web applications as a trusted security token
issuer, use the following Windows PowerShell command:
New-SPTrustedSecurityTokenIssuer -name <hostname> -Certificate “<CERLocation>” –
RegisteredIssuerName “00000003-0000-0ff1-ce00-000000000000@<NameID>” -Description
“<FriendlyName>” -IsTrustBroker:$false
Configure server-to-server authentication between SharePoint 2013 farms
C (not B):
New-SPTrustedSecurityTokenIssuer – creates a trust between a server to server principal.
Use the New-SPTrustedSecurityTokenIssuer cmdlet to establish a trust between a server to server principal.

Andre (26.02.2016): @J: Not correct, just the receiving farm has to configure. You posted the correct link, but
seems like you didnt read it?!
“In the SharePoint 2013 environment on the farm that is receiving server-to-server requests, start the
SharePoint 2013 Management Shell.”
