A URI is a compact string of characters that identifies an abstract resource or a physical resource. Specifically, the URI that you configure here is the unique name or location for the realm that is hosted by this Federation Service (farm). A URI consists of a scheme name, followed by a colon, followed by some scheme-specific data.

All Uniform Resource Names (URNs) and Uniform Resource Locators (URLs), such as http, ldap, gopher, and ftp, are valid URIs.

Verify that you can access the Active Directory Federation Services (AD FS)-enabled application from a client browser and that the resource can be accessed.
