Which ADFS do you want to be the IDP?

That ADFS needs to be the Claims Provider, The other is the Relying Party.

Get each ADFS's metadata:

https://myADFS/FederationMetadata/2007-06/FederationMetadata.xml

and import when you are creating the CP / RP.

If you want either to be the IDP from both sides then you need to configure two relationships:

A as CP - B as RP and also

B as CP - A as RP
