MSP432E401Y: HTTP User Session

Hi,

I need to authenticate a login and only allow that user session to access web server files and cgi scripts. How do we do this with the TI NDK HTTP Server? We are using simplelink_msp432e4_sdk_4_20_00_12.

Thanks,

-Mike

HI,

I find a NDKTCPIP User's guide. In chapter 2.2.12 Adding Clients and Servers might help your issue.

I think the way to do this is to set a cookie with a session ID. I managed to do this from the server side (MSP432) but I don't see how to get the HTTP headers when the client responds back with the session ID.

I found that the URLHandler_ScanFieldFxn callback has the client header which contains the cookie.
