Should I combine IdentityServer and the administration for it into one application or split into two?

Question

I wonder if there is a recommendation how to handle the administration of the IdentityServer. Is it better to separate the administration part into an own web application and just use the same DB or is it fine to have only one site? If it's the same web site; can I use OAuth to restrict access to the admin pages or should I use another mechanism; e.g. ASP.NET Authentication?

Answer 1

You can do either - the guys behind Identity server have already created a UI for you here - http://www.identityserver.com/documentation/admin-ui/

There are paid for and free versions.
