page to capture HTTP Basic or Negotiate authentication. The HTTP 407 Response action provides
three branches: Basic, Negotiate, and fallback. Typically, a basic type of authentication follows
on the Basic branch and a Kerberos Auth action follows on the Negotiate branch. An HTTP 407
response action provides these configuration elements and options:
