Description
Auth Type
Select the authentication type:
None = no authentication is necessary.
Basic = encodes passwords using Base64.
Digest = encodes passwords using MD5.
SSL = the page can only be accessed over SSL (no password is
required).
SSL/Basic = the page is accessible only over SSL and encodes
passwords using Base64.
SSL/Digest = the page is accessible only over SSL and encodes
