Authentication
AxoConsole supports the following authentication providers for on-premises deployments:
| Provider | Description | When to use |
|---|---|---|
| Built-in (axoidp) | Axoflow’s built-in identity provider | Default for all installations. Manages local users with username and password. |
| Dex | Open-source identity federation layer | Use when you want to authenticate users with an existing identity system such as LDAP, Google, or GitHub. |
The built-in provider is enabled automatically during installation. To use a different provider, see the relevant section below.
