Post-Installation and Configurations:
Soon after the completion of the installation. You may not get the Silverlight to load the page completely and it end up partially blank as below:-
The installation does not end here. you may now have to look a little bit more in depth of each component configurations.

You have to trust the certificate that binds to the SSP.
After all the above are verified, you should be getting a page look similar as below:-
