We're trying to configure Quantum REST Proxy Plugin to use an external Network service developed by ourselves in the context of OpenNaaS Project [1]. We have developed a REST server to listen Proxy requests. We want to modify Plugin configuration as described in OpenStack official documentation [2] and OpenStack Wiki [3].

What kind of authentication is used by REST Proxy Plugin? Is there any configuration a part of user name and password? It is possible using Basic HTTP Authentication [4]?

Thank you!
