Help configuring a indexed surface mill

I'm seeking advice to configure this face mill: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000070506541.html

The endmill have 2 vertical flutes + 2 horizontal flutes, should i configure as 2F or 4F on HSMAdvisor?

I've attached my configuration, not sure if is correct to go this way

Thank you for replying.
About the tip diameter should i use the full diameter of the tool (31.75mm) for the calculation? The tool don't have blades on all it radius, theres a small gap on center

I think you should use the full diameter.
