## Boundary and Vault as an IdP
Boundary supports OIDC, LDAP and username/password as authentication methods. Boundary can leverage Vault as an OIDC bridge provider. This allows Vault to delegate authentication to an external OIDC provider, such as Google, Okta, Entra as some examples, which then map the authenticated user's claims to Vault policies and identities. This allows users to authenticate to Boundary with any of Vault's supported authentication methods, even ones that Boundary does not natively support. When Boundary leverages Vault as an OIDC provider, each user leveraging the authentication method then counts as a Vault client.
