HTTP/HTTPS digest-encrypted authentication via MD5 or Basic

The SPA8000 supports basic and digest (MD5) access HTTP/HTTPS authentication starting in this release. You can use this authentication to confirm the identity of a user before the phone sends sensitive information, such as the password.

Digest access (MD5) applies a hash function to the username, password, random nonce, and other information before the data is sent over the network. Basic access authentication uses the easily reversible Base64 encoding instead of hashing. If basic authentication is applied, we recommend that you use HTTPS as the transport protocol.
