# Federated Configuration Parameters

You can configure the Distributed Action Handler to do federated search by configuring the `[Federated]` section.

For example:

    [Federated]
    Number=1
    DefineTypeCSVs0=Ultraseek,K2,Z39.50
    LibraryPath0=federated.dll

You must configure each of the types of child server for the federated search using either the `IDOLServer` `N` or `DistributedEngine` `N` section. Each type of federated search query server has its own specific configuration parameters.

For example:

    [DistributedEngine0]
    host=search.ultraseek.com
    port=80
    type=Ultraseek
    queryuri=/saquery.xml

    [DistributedEngine1]
    host=server1
    port=9920
    type=K2
    mswindows=True

    [DistributedEngine2]
    host=server2
    port=3434
    type=Z39.50
    defaultrelevance=50
    queryformat=cql
