+The reason for this is that Spring Security needs to be able to inspect some Spring MVC configuration in order to appropriately configure xref:servlet/authorization/authorize-http-requests.adoc#_request_matchers[underlying request matchers], so they need to be in the same application context.
+Placing Spring Security in `getRootConfigClasses` places it into a parent application context that may not be able to find Spring MVC's `HandlerMappingIntrospector`.
+
+==== Configuring for Multiple Spring MVC Dispatchers
+
+If desired, any Spring Security configuration that is unrelated to Spring MVC may be placed in a different configuration class like so:
+
+[source,java]
+----
+public class MvcWebApplicationInitializer extends
+		AbstractAnnotationConfigDispatcherServletInitializer {
+
+	@Override
+    protected Class<?>[] getRootConfigClasses() {
+		return new Class[] { NonWebSecurityConfig.class };
+    }
+
+	@Override
+	protected Class<?>[] getServletConfigClasses() {
+		return new Class[] { WebSecurityConfig.class, WebMvcConfig.class };
+	}
+
+	// ... other overrides ...
+}
+----
+
+This can be helpful if you have multiple instances of `AbstractAnnotationConfigDispatcherServletInitializer` and don't want to duplicate the general security configuration across both of them.
