The form can use either the "get" or the "post" methods, but the "post" method is recommended. The form's
action must absolutely or relatively reference
https://<controller_IP>/auth/index.html/u.
You can construct an authentication form using the following HTML:
<FORM method="post" ACTION="/auth/index.html/u">
...
</FORM>
A recommended option for the <FORM> element is:
autocomplete="off"
This option prevents Internet Explorer from caching the form inputs. The form variables are input using any
form control method available such as INPUT, SELECT, TEXTAREA, and BUTTON. Example HTML code follows.
Username Example
Minimal:
<INPUT type="text" name="user">
Recommended Options:
accesskey="u" Sets the keyboard shortcut to 'u'
SIZE="25 "Sets the size of the input box to 25
VALUE= ""Ensures no default value
Password Example
Minimal:
<INPUT type="password" name="password">
Recommended Options:
accesskey="p" Sets the keyboard shortcut to 'p'
SIZE="25 "Sets the size of the input box to 25
VALUE= ""Ensures no default value
FQDN Example
Minimal:
<SELECT name=fqdn>
<OPTION value="fqdn1" SELECTED>
<OPTION value="fqdn2">
</SELECT>
Recommended Options:

Finally, an HTML also requires an input button:
<INPUT type="submit">
