Use LabVIEW to login username and password into device IP webpage login prompt

[MikeS81]

Hi pessen,

the Authentication is part of the Header not of the GET line. The GET Line is everytime the same: GET /URL HTTP/1.1. i think it has to be something like this:

• GET / HTTP/1.1\r\n
• Authentication: Basic Y3li...=\r\n
• \r\n

it has to be the same string like you see in Wireshark.

Hi pessen,

Well,

I got it to work finally. The vi I was using was set up so that the text input would only take one line of text......so when I would try to input the request plus teh cerification header on seperate lines it would only take the first one. Like I said, I am fairly new to LabVIEW so it took me longer to realize what it was doing than it should have. Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it.

Hi pessen,

Sorry to bring up this issue again. I'm also faced  with the same issue of authenticating using LabVIEW and TCP/IP.

Could you kindly let me know what was the final header format that you followed to send the authentication command? Right now I'm at the same situation you were with error 401 appearing all the time.

Many thanks!

Cheers!

hello,

I want to login webpage of wireless router,but when I use wireshark to capture the communication data,there is no Post action.

I can find the user name and password information in Get action.

However,I can not log in successfully.

User name and Password information is included in Get action.

When I use this information to try login,but it still failed.

Any help is appreciated.
