Name

IAuthenticationModule

Synopsis

This interface is implemented by all authentication modules. If you develop a custom authentication module, you must implement this interface and register an instance of your module with AuthenticationManager.Register().

Public Interface IAuthenticationModule
                  ' Public Instance Properties
   Public ReadOnly Property AuthenticationType As String  
   Public ReadOnly Property CanPreAuthenticate As Boolean  
' Public Instance Methods
   Public Function Authenticate(ByVal challenge As String, 
        ByVal request As WebRequest, 
        ByVal credentials As ICredentials) As Authorization  
   Public Function PreAuthenticate(
        ByVal request As WebRequest, 
        ByVal credentials As ICredentials) As Authorization  
End Interface
