Introduction

HTTP Digest access authentication is one of the agreed-upon methods a device can use to negotiate credentials with a HTTP server to increase the security. This extra security can also be used during the HTTP Auto provisioning process.

HTTP digest is always been available in the Gigaset devices, but with the latest software additional functionality is added.

• N510 BL192 or higher.
• N720 BL84 or higher
• DE900/700 BL02.00.10 or higher
• DE410/310 BL02.00.07 or higher

Web-Interface configuration

In the webinterface of the device go to: Settings - Security Settings - Server Authentication.

Enter the HTTP Digest Username and Password.

When the device connects to the Auto provisioning server and will receive the message 401 unauthorised, it will try to connect again using the HTTP credentials you inserted.

This feature is often used in a Broadsoft Auto provisioning process.
