Http Authentication Page - Lantronix Data Center-Grade Evolution Device Server EDS32PR User Manual

HTTP Authentication Page

HTTP Authentication allows you to require usernames and passwords to access specific
web pages or directories on the EDS's built-in web server.
For example, to add web pages to the EDS to control or monitor of a device attached to a
port on the EDS, you can specify the user and password that can access that web page.
If you click Authentication at the top of one of the HTTP pages, the HTTP Authentication
page displays. Here you can change HTTP authentication settings.
Under Current Configuration, URI and Users have a Delete link. If you click Delete, a
message asks whether you are sure you want to delete this information. Click OK to
proceed or Cancel to cancel the operation.
Example:
The following example shows how to add authentication to user-loaded web pages in a
directory called port1control.
1. Create a directory called port1control in the EDS's files system (using an FTP client,
Windows Explorer, or the EDS Web Manager).
2. Copy the custom web pages to this directory.

%{h}i header contents from request (h = header string)
%m request method
%p ephemeral local port value used for request
%q query string (prepend with '?' or empty '-')
