Both OIDC and ADFS in same application (OWIN) - asp.net-mvc-5

Question

I am working on an ASP.NET MVC 5 website using EPiServer CMS.
The requirement is that we have admin (back-end users) log in using ADFS (working) and OIDC for front-end.
Both are set to passive mode and are called through action methods in a controller.
The issue I am facing is that front-end users OIDC is set to (Authentication type ="Federation") when it returns from external call instead of external cookie.
public void Configuration(IAppBuilder app)
{
//IdentityModelEventSource.ShowPII = true;
ServicePointManager.SecurityProtocol |= SecurityProtocolType.Tls12 | SecurityProtocolType.Tls11;
ConfigureMemberAuth(app);
ConfigureAdminAuth(app);
}
private void ConfigureMemberAuth(IAppBuilder app)
{
app.UseCookieAuthentication(new CookieAuthenticationOptions
{
AuthenticationType = DefaultAuthenticationTypes.ApplicationCookie,
LoginPath = new PathString("/logmein/"),
LogoutPath = new PathString("/"),
AuthenticationMode = AuthenticationMode.Active
});
app.UseExternalSignInCookie(DefaultAuthenticationTypes.ExternalCookie);

notification.AuthenticationTicket.Identity.AddClaim(new Claim(

var userinfoSub = userInfoEndpointResult["xx"].Value<string>();
var idtokenSub = notification.AuthenticationTicket.Identity.FindFirst("http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2005/05/identity/claims/nameidentifier").Value;
if (userinfoSub == idtokenSub)
{
//add claims from UserInfo endpoint to identity
foreach (var entry in userInfoEndpointResult)
{
if (!notification.AuthenticationTicket.Identity.HasClaim(c => c.Type == entry.Key))
{
notification.AuthenticationTicket.Identity.AddClaim(new Claim(
type: entry.Key,
value: entry.Value.ToString()));
}
}
// Add access token to claims.
notification.AuthenticationTicket.Identity.AddClaim(new Claim(
OpenIdConnectParameterNames.AccessToken,
accesstoken));
}
}
},
// Attach the id_token stored in the authentication cookie to the logout request.
RedirectToIdentityProvider = notification =>

});
}
private void ConfigureAdminAuth(IAppBuilder app)

{
RedirectToIdentityProvider = (ctx) =>
{
// To avoid a redirect loop to the federation server send 403 when user is authenticated but does not have access
if (ctx.OwinContext.Response.StatusCode == 401 && (ctx.OwinContext.Authentication.User.Identity.AuthenticationType == WsFederationAuthenticationDefaults.AuthenticationType && ctx.OwinContext.Authentication.User.Identity.IsAuthenticated))
{
ctx.OwinContext.Response.StatusCode = 403;
ctx.HandleResponse();
}
//XHR requests cannot handle redirects to a login screen, return 401
if (ctx.OwinContext.Response.StatusCode == 401 && IsXhrRequest(ctx.OwinContext.Request))
{
ctx.HandleResponse();
}
return Task.FromResult(0);
},
SecurityTokenValidated = (ctx) =>
{
//Ignore scheme/host name in redirect Uri to make sure a redirect to HTTPS does not redirect back to HTTP
var redirectUri = new Uri(ctx.AuthenticationTicket.Properties.RedirectUri, UriKind.RelativeOrAbsolute);
if (redirectUri.IsAbsoluteUri)
{
ctx.AuthenticationTicket.Properties.RedirectUri = redirectUri.PathAndQuery;
}
//Sync user and the roles to EPiServer in the background
ServiceLocator.Current.GetInstance<ISynchronizingUserService>().SynchronizeAsync(ctx.AuthenticationTicket.Identity);
return Task.FromResult(0);
},
}
});
//Add stage marker to make sure WsFederation runs on Authenticate (before URL Authorization and virtual roles)
app.UseStageMarker(PipelineStage.Authenticate);
// Remap logout to a federated logout
app.Map(LogoutUrl, map =>
{
map.Run(ctx =>
{
ctx.Authentication.SignOut();
ctx.Response.Redirect(ApplicationSettings.Domain);
return Task.FromResult(0);
});
});
}
When I out comment this line: app.SetDefaultSignInAsAuthenticationType(WsFederationAuthenticationDefaults.AuthenticationType);
in admin auth then client-login works as intended and authentication type is set to "ExternalCookie" when call return but then admin login stops working ?
Any help would be appreciated
