Encryption method for AddUser

[p2p-sys]

Which encryption method to choose when adding a user?

Example:

sending {'method': 'global.login', 'params': {'userName': 'admin', 'ipAddr': '127.0.0.1', 'loginType': 'Loopback', 'clientType': 'Local', 'authorityType': 'Default', 'passwordType': 'Plain', 'password': 'admin'}, 'session': 0, 'id': 1}
answer '{"id":1,"params":{"keepAliveInterval":60},"result":true,"session":2147483573}\n'

no realm
no encryption method

sending {'method': 'userManager.getAuthorityList', 'params': {}, 'session': 2147483573, 'id': 4}
answer '{"id":4,"params":["AuthUserMag","Monitor_01","Replay_01","AuthSysCfg","AuthSysInfo","AuthManuCtr","AuthBackup","AuthStoreCfg","AuthEventCfg","AuthNetCfg","AuthPeripheral","AuthAVParam","AuthSecurity","AuthMaintence"],"result":true,"session":2147483573}\n'

Try 1, encryption Default:

realm = 'Login to {}'.format(serial)
auth_hash = hashlib.md5((username + ':' + realm + ':' + password).encode('latin-1')).hexdigest().upper()

sending {'method': 'userManager.addUser', 'params': {'user': {'Name': 'new_user1', 'Password': 'DD2EF076AC26F3911B0BB59CA317FC55', 'Group': 'admin', 'AuthorityList': ['AuthUserMag', 'Monitor_01', 'Replay_01', 'AuthSysCfg', 'AuthSysInfo', 'AuthManuCtr', 'AuthBackup', 'AuthStoreCfg', 'AuthEventCfg', 'AuthNetCfg', 'AuthPeripheral', 'AuthAVParam', 'AuthSecurity', 'AuthMaintence'], 'Sharable': True, 'Reserved': False, 'Encryption': 'Default', 'Type': 'Normal', 'Memo': '', 'MacOnly': '', 'MaxMonitorChannels': 0}}, 'session': 2147483573, 'id': 5}
answer {"id":5,"result":true,"session":2147483573}\n

try login: authorization failed

Try 2, encryption Plain:

sending {'method': 'userManager.addUser', 'params': {'user': {'Name': 'new_user2', 'Password': 'password', 'Group': 'admin', 'AuthorityList': ['AuthUserMag', 'Monitor_01', 'Replay_01', 'AuthSysCfg', 'AuthSysInfo', 'AuthManuCtr', 'AuthBackup', 'AuthStoreCfg', 'AuthEventCfg', 'AuthNetCfg', 'AuthPeripheral', 'AuthAVParam', 'AuthSecurity', 'AuthMaintence'], 'Sharable': True, 'Reserved': False, 'Encryption': 'Plain', 'Type': 'Normal', 'Memo': '', 'MacOnly': '', 'MaxMonitorChannels': 0}}, 'session': 2147483573, 'id': 6}
answer {"id":6,"result":true,"session":2147483573}\n

try login: authorization failed

Try 3, encryption Basic:

auth_hash = base64.b64encode(username.encode('latin-1') + b':' + password.encode('latin-1'))

sending {'method': 'userManager.addUser', 'params': {'user': {'Name': 'new_user3', 'Password': 'c3lzcTpUZXN0UGFyb2w4NzY=', 'Group': 'admin', 'AuthorityList': ['AuthUserMag', 'Monitor_01', 'Replay_01', 'AuthSysCfg', 'AuthSysInfo', 'AuthManuCtr', 'AuthBackup', 'AuthStoreCfg', 'AuthEventCfg', 'AuthNetCfg', 'AuthPeripheral', 'AuthAVParam', 'AuthSecurity', 'AuthMaintence'], 'Sharable': True, 'Reserved': False, 'Encryption': 'Basic', 'Type': 'Normal', 'Memo': '', 'MacOnly': '', 'MaxMonitorChannels': 0}}, 'session': 2147483573, 'id': 7}
answer {"id":7,"result":true,"session":2147483573}\n

try login: authorization failed

Try 4, encryption OldDigest:

auth_hash = Dahua_Gen1_hash(password)

sending {'method': 'userManager.addUser', 'params': {'user': {'Name': 'new_user4', 'Password': 'PakaXatZ', 'Group': 'admin', 'AuthorityList': ['AuthUserMag', 'Monitor_01', 'Replay_01', 'AuthSysCfg', 'AuthSysInfo', 'AuthManuCtr', 'AuthBackup', 'AuthStoreCfg', 'AuthEventCfg', 'AuthNetCfg', 'AuthPeripheral', 'AuthAVParam', 'AuthSecurity', 'AuthMaintence'], 'Sharable': True, 'Reserved': False, 'Encryption': 'OldDigest', 'Type': 'Normal', 'Memo': '', 'MacOnly': '', 'MaxMonitorChannels': 0}}, 'session': 2147483573, 'id': 8}
answer {"id":8,"result":true,"session":2147483573}\n

try login: authorization failed

format-wise only try 1 looks like the password I can see on my cam. Maybe there is something wrong with the pattern for combining username, realm and password?
