# Configure IDOL Data Admin with a Reverse Proxy

You can use IDOL Data Admin with a reverse proxy over either HTTP(S) or Apache JServ Protocol (AJP).

With a reverse proxy, you can choose to manage authentication for your users, and the reverse proxy allows users to access the IDOL Data Admin application with a default set of user roles, which you can define.

NOTE: You cannot configure the reverse proxy to assign an administrator user role. Your administrators must have access to the IDOL Data Admin application by another route.

Using a reverse proxy can allow you to:

- add security and protect the identity of your backend services.
- pre-authenticate your users, enabling a single sign-on workflow.
- provide SSL termination.
- improve performance by adding compression or caching.

The following sections describe how to configure IDOL Data Admin to use a reverse proxy, and how to configure various types of reverse proxy.
