> Is there any real scenario for usage of {{realm}} attribute in authentication-configuration? 
> If server provides DIGEST-MD5 mechanism and client chooses it, then server provides name of realm which should be used for creating {{user:realm:password}} digest. It was the original reason which was provided to us. However it seems that reason for that attribute is currently different. What is the reason for attribute {{realm}} in authentication-configuration?
> This information will be also needed for documentation.
