Setting the HTTP authentication method:fs
The Power View HTTP server supports two authentication methods for security and validation of the
username-password – Basic and MD5 digest.
The Basic method utilizes Base64 encoding to encode and deliver the username-password over the
network to the HTTP server for decoding and authentication. This basic method is supported by all web
browsers and offers a minimum level of security.
NOTE: The Base64 algorithm is widely-known and susceptible to packet-sniffer attack for acquisition of the encoded
username-password string.
The MD5 digest method provides stronger protection utilizing one-way encoded hash numbers, never
placing the username-password on the network. Instead, the sending browser creates a challenge code
based on the hash algorithm, provided username-password and unique items such as the device IP address
and timestamp, which is compared against the HTTP server internal user database of valid challenge
codes. The MD5 digest method offers a higher level of security than the Basic method but at present is
not supported by all browsers.
NOTE: MD5 is known to be fully supported by Internet Explorer 5.0+
Select Basic or MD5 from the Authentication drop-down menu and press Apply .
