What is the difference between the 'default' and the 'pseudo' identity assertion provider in the knox topology and when you you use one over the other?
<provider> <role>identity-assertion</role> <name>Pseudo</name> <enabled>true</enabled> ... </provider>
<provider>
<role>identity-assertion</role>
<name>Default</name>
<enabled>true</enabled>
...
</provider>Thks, matts

The 'Pseudo' identity assertion provider was renamed to 'Default' in KNOX-425 and KNOX-426. The 'Pseudo' provider is still supported for backwards compatibility.

Thank you slachterman. It seems the jiras are resolved, but the documentation still references Pseudo.
