How to set "Splunk Authentication" in Splunk Java SDK?

I got authentication like "Splunk xyz-hnhn-hsnsnhdn-etahshd" (Of course I am putting wrong password here so don't try to encrypt it). What is this authentication? and how can I set this authentication in Splunk Java SDK?

Thanks for sharing but as you can see in the first link, the last example they are getting connected through Basic authentication and Instead of that I have something call Splunk xyz-hnhn-hsnsnhdn-etahshd . so how can I use it to connect to splunk? If I use my credentials as a basic credentials,everything works fine but with the splunk credentials it gives authentication error.
