  1. The Maxwell sends the server a request to download the provisioning template.
  2. The WEB-server receives the request and requires an authentication. The WEB-server checks if the authentication information is in the request. Because this is the first request, there is no authentication information available. The WEB-server responds returning an 401 Unauthorized.
  3. The client receives the WEB-server challenge and gathers the required credentials. A new request is send containing the username and hashed secret key.

    Username = Maxwell MAC address (12 Digits)
    Password = Maxwell MAC-ID (12 Digits)

    The MAC-ID can be collected when you register the device to the Gigaset Re-direct server.
  4. When username and password are correct, the provisioning template is downloaded.
