11. In the details pane, click Apply, and then click OK.

Note (From TMG Help):
With SSO, users can click a link on a Web page supplied by one Web site and move safely to another Web site without having to supply their credentials again.

Single sign-on is available for Web sites that are published by rules that use the same Web listener. The Web listener must be configured to use HTML forms-based authentication, and SSO must be enabled for it.
