I want to authenticate Splunk using Apache Http Server.
I am able to configure reverse proxy for splunk, but not able to authenticate through server.
Please suggest the possible way to perform this.

These documents doesn't have information how to configure Http Server Authentication(HSA).
They just tell you should do HSA as first step before doing SSO.
Not useful document.
