[[client]]
==== image:images/yes.png[yes] client
*Description*: In Red{nbsp}Hat Single Sign-On, a _client_ is an entity that can request Red{nbsp}Hat Single Sign-On to authenticate a user. Most often, clients are applications and services that want to use Red{nbsp}Hat Single Sign-On to secure themselves and provide a single sign-on solution. Clients are also entities that request identity information or an access token so that they can securely invoke other services on the network that are secured by Red{nbsp}Hat Single Sign-On.
*Description*: _Client_ has multiple meanings, depending on the context:

* Generically, a _client_ is an entity, such as a machine, process, service, or application, that uses a service provided by a server. Avoid using "client" to refer to an application that manages configuration of such clients or to refer to applications, tools, and so on.
