Specifies protocols for authentication.
Syntax
public enum AuthenticationSchemes
Remarks
This enumeration is used to specify the method used to authenticate client requests being processed by System.Net.HttpListener objects.
Note Basic authentication requires the exchange of a password and should therefore be avoided except in the case of secure, encrypted connections.
