Management & UI Overview¶
The management bundle is maintained in the OAM repository. Its Compose files
run Caddy, OAM, PostgreSQL, and a one-shot UI asset publisher. The browser opens
/netlox/; Caddy proxies /api/oam/* to OAM's /oam/* routes.

OAM login, OAM-to-Gateway management credentials, and inference API keys are
separate credentials. Current OAM strips the caller's Authorization header
before applying its configured Gateway service identity. The generic Compose
bundle defaults to disabled; its converged overlay selects service-token.
See the installation guide for the exact source baseline
and configuration steps.

UI/OAM installation checks do not establish that a particular UI operation works against a selected Gateway image. Validate required operations with that exact release combination before using them on production resources.
