+
+This configuration option defines the ``<RequestedAuthnContext>`` for an AuthnRequest by
+a client. The value is a dictionary with two fields
+
+- ``authn_context_class_ref`` a list of string values representing
+  ``<AuthnContextClassRef>`` elements.
+
+- ``comparison`` a string representing the Comparison xml-attribute value of the
+  ``<RequestedAuthnContext>`` element. Per the SAML core specificiation the value should
+  be one of "exact", "minimum", "maximum", or "better". The default is "exact".
+
+Example::
+
+    "service": {
+        "sp": {
+            "requested_authn_context": {
