Steps

  1. Send any request without credentials; the server returns 401 Unauthorized with a WWW-Authenticate: basic realm="Radius" header and a Set-Cookie header
  2. Base64-encode 'username:password' and resend the request with header Authorization: Basic <base64>
  3. Store the ECLYPSERESTSESSIONID cookie returned in the response
  4. Include that cookie on subsequent requests instead of resending the Authorization header each time
  5. Re-send Authorization: Basic whenever a fresh session is needed - each time you do, the server issues a new cookie
