• Authentication
: This parameter specifies the authentication
method used to communicate with the Lattus host. Set this to
AWS Signature Version 2
if the S3 REST interface is used. Set
this to
Digest
if Lattus AXR interface is used and a user name
and password are required for access. Otherwise, set this to
None
.

User Name
: Enter a valid string to specify the User Name for

be verified. This parameter is used only if Object Access Protocol
is set to https.
