Abstract

RFC2617 does not define how to treat Unicode characters [UNICODE] outside the ASCII range [RFC20] with the "Digest" scheme. This document defines an extension to the "Digest" scheme, and a mechanism that enables the client and server to negotiate their support for the UTF-8 [RFC3629] character encoding scheme.
