SAML service provider spring security

Question

When using pre-configured service provider metadata, in spring security, should there be 2 beans definitions for extended metadata delegate ? one for IDP metadata, and one for SP metadata ?

<bean class="org.springframework.security.saml.metadata.ExtendedMetadataDelegate">
    <constructor-arg>
        <bean class="org.opensaml.saml2.metadata.provider.FilesystemMetadataProvider">
            <constructor-arg>
                <value type="java.io.File">classpath:security/localhost_sp.xml</value>
            </constructor-arg>
            <property name="parserPool" ref="parserPool"/>
        </bean>
    </constructor-arg>
    <constructor-arg>
        <bean class="org.springframework.security.saml.metadata.ExtendedMetadata">
           <property name="local" value="true"/>
           <property name="alias" value="default"/>
           <property name="securityProfile" value="metaiop"/>
           <property name="sslSecurityProfile" value="pkix"/>
           <property name="signingKey" value="apollo"/>
           <property name="encryptionKey" value="apollo"/>
           <property name="requireArtifactResolveSigned" value="false"/>
           <property name="requireLogoutRequestSigned" value="false"/>
           <property name="requireLogoutResponseSigned" value="false"/>
           <property name="idpDiscoveryEnabled" value="true"/>
           <property name="idpDiscoveryURL"
              value="https://www.server.com:8080/context/saml/discovery/alias/default"/>
           <property name="idpDiscoveryResponseURL"
              value="https://www.server.com:8080/context/saml/login/alias/default?disco=true"/>
        </bean>
    </constructor-arg>
</bean>




<bean class="org.springframework.security.saml.metadata.ExtendedMetadataDelegate">
    <constructor-arg>
        <bean class="org.opensaml.saml2.metadata.provider.FilesystemMetadataProvider">

        </bean>
    </constructor-arg>
    <constructor-arg>
        <bean class="org.springframework.security.saml.metadata.ExtendedMetadata"/>
    </constructor-arg>
</bean>
