Example 3 enables federation access for all the external access policies that have been configured at the per-user scope.
To carry out this task, the first thing the command does is use the `Get-CsExternalAcessPolicy` cmdlet and the Filter parameter to return a collection of all the policies that have been configured at the per-user scope.
To carry out this task, the first thing the command does is use the `Get-CsExternalAccessPolicy` cmdlet and the Filter parameter to return a collection of all the policies that have been configured at the per-user scope.
(The filter value "tag:*" limits returned data to policies that have an Identity that begins with the string value "tag:".
Any policy with an Identity that begins with "tag:" has been configured at the per-user scope.) The filtered collection is then piped to the `Set-CsExternalAccessPolicy` cmdlet, which modifies the EnableFederationAccess property for each policy in the collection.

### -------------------------- Example 4 ------------------------
```
Get-CsExternalAccessPolicy | Where-Object {$_.EnablePublicCloudAccess -eq $True} | Set-CsExternalAccessPolicy -EnableFederationAccess $True
```

In Example 4, federation access is enabled for all the external access policies that allow public cloud access.
To do this, the command first uses the `Get-CsExternalAccessPolicy` cmdlet to return a collection of all the external access policies currently configured for use in the organization.
This collection is piped to the `Where-Object` cmdlet, which picks out only those policies where the EnablePublicCloudAccess property is equal to True.
The filtered collection is then piped to the `Set-CsExternalAccessPolicy` cmdlet, which takes each policy and sets the EnableFederationAccess property to True.
The net result: all external access policies that allow public cloud access will also allow federation access.
