1.  Introduction

http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2831.html
2.1.1  Step One
   The meanings of the values of the directives used above are as
   follows:

   realm
      Mechanistically, a string which can enable users to know which
      username and password to use, in case they might have different
      ones for different servers. Conceptually, it is the name of a
      collection of accounts that might include the user's account. This
      string should contain at least the name of the host performing the
      authentication and might additionally indicate the collection of
      users who might have access. An example might be
      "[EMAIL PROTECTED]".  This directive is
      optional; if not present, the client SHOULD solicit it from the
      user or be able to compute a default; a plausible default might be
      the realm supplied by the user when they logged in to the client
      system. Multiple realm directives are allowed, in which case the
      user or client must choose one as the realm for which to supply to
      username and password.
