Create a directory called port1control in the IntelliBox's file system (using an FTP client, Windows Explorer, or the IntelliBox Web Manager). 2. Copy the custom web pages to this directory. 3. On the HTTP Authentication page of the IntelliBox Web Manager, add:  A URI of Location where to store the user  A Realm of Monitor  An AuthType of Digest  A Username and Password 4. Click the Submit button. The IntelliBox creates a username and password to allow the user to access all web pages located in the directory port1control in the IntelliBox file system. Note: The URI, realm, username, and password are user-specified, free-form fields. The URI must match the directory created on the IntelliBox file system. The URI and realm used in the example above are only examples and would typically be different as specified by the user. IntelliBox-I/O 2100 User Guide 88

HTTP Authentication Page
HTTP Authentication enables you to require usernames and passwords to access
specific web pages or directories on the IntelliBox’s built-in web server.
For example, to add web pages to the IntelliBox to control or monitor of a device attached
to a port on the IntelliBox, 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 IntelliBox’s file system (using an FTP
client, Windows Explorer, or the IntelliBox Web Manager).
2.
Copy the custom web pages to this directory.
3.
On the HTTP Authentication page of the IntelliBox Web Manager, add:
A
URI
of
Location where to store the user
A
Realm
of
Monitor
An
AuthType
of
Digest
A
Username
and
Password
4. Click the
Submit
button. The IntelliBox creates a username and password to allow
the user to access all web pages located in the directory
port1control
in the
IntelliBox file system.
Note:
The URI, realm, username, and password are user-specified, free-form
fields. The URI must match the directory created on the IntelliBox file system.
The URI and realm used in the example above are only examples and would
typically be different as specified by the user.
