authentication is hierarchical in that any URI can be given an authentication directive in order to
override a parent URI authentication directive.

Line
The PremierWave 2050 gateway offers two serial lines which use standard RS232/RS485
interfaces. The lines can be configured to operate in the following modes:
RS232
RS485 Full Duplex (also compatible with RS-422)
RS485 Half Duplex, with and without termination impedance
All serial settings such as Baud Rate, Parity, Data Bits, etc, apply to this line.
The line settings allow configuration of the serial line.
HTTP Authentication
Settings
Description
URI
Enter the URI. The URI must begin with / to refer to the filesystem.
Authentication Type
Select an HTTP authentication type. The different types offer various levels of
security, from the least to most secure:
None:
no authentication necessary
Basic:
encodes passwords using Base64
Digest:
encodes passwords using MD5When changing the parameters of
Digest authentication, it is often best to close and reopen the browser to ensure
that it does not attempt to use cached authentication information.
There is no real reason to create an authentication directive using None unless
you want to override a parent directive that uses some other Authentication
Type.
Click
Submit
when URI and Authentication Type is entered to submit it.
