Hi . i am new to APM.

why is that we are not using HTTP 401 response code in VPE instead i could see Logon .

In this article it has been stated that windows server has been configured to respond with http 4001 response code, but when the traffic comes to the F5 the VPE will be executed and first it will go to the logon page and then AD AUTH. is that not mandatory to use http 401 instead of Logon ?
