Hi Azeez,

LoginLogoutUtil.login() talks to AuthenticationAdmin and call login
method. But after implementing "Basic Access Authenticator" in core we
do not need to call AuthenticationAdmin.login method to call a
service. But AuthenticationAdmin is kept as it is to make code
backward compatible.

Now, if we want to call an another admin service we do not need to
call AuthenticationAdmin.login and get a token. We can directly call
admin service with basic access" headers. Please see "Cleaning up
Carbon Authenticator Framework" mail thread in carbon-dev for more
information.

Thanks
AmilaJ
