How to Turn Off Xbox Authentication for Your Bedrock Server


Xbox authentication is like the `online-mode` for Java servers, but for Bedrock servers.

> If it is set to true then all connected players must be authenticated to Xbox Live.

||| Also, [here](https://help.ggservers.com/en-us/article/xbox-ps4-or-nintendo-switch-connection-w15pfr/) you can find our guide explaining how to properly connect to your Bedrock server from Xbox, PS4 or Nintendo Switch.

### Some Notes:

* Like on Minecraft Java servers, you can enable/disable on Bedrock Edition servers the `online-mode` through the `server.properties` file.
* With this option, you can allow or deny Xbox, Minecraft Windows 10, or MCPE non-authenticated players from joining your server.
* Disabling this option is not recommended because your server will run in an insecure way.
