LL::NG portal is a REST server that gives access to configuration, session and also authentication.
The authentication service is always available with REST, you just need to send credentials on portal URL. But by default, the portal is protected by one time tokens to prevent CSRF. You must disable them or set a rule (configuration parameter requireToken) so token will not be required for REST requests, for example:
$env->{HTTP_ACCEPT} !~ m:application/json:
Request parameters:
