How to create asp.net web page with basic authentication

I want to create ASP.NET web page which will prompt me basic authentication popup where in I will enter credentials.
I tried adding below lines of code in PreInit and PreLoad event handlers but still it is not showing me basic authentication popup.

    protected override void OnPreInit(EventArgs e)
        {
            base.OnPreInit(e);
            Response.Headers.Add("WWW-Authenticate", "Basic");
        }



protected override void OnPreLoad(EventArgs e)
{
    base.OnPreLoad(e);
    Response.Headers.Add("WWW-Authenticate", "Basic");
    Response.AppendHeader("WWW-Authenticate", "Basic");
}

Can you please help me with this ?
Thanks in advance.

You would typically do this in IIS. See: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/iis/configuration/system.webserver/security/authentication/basicauthentication

The short version:

ensure that the basic authentication feature is enabled on your server
disable anonymous authentication in your site and enable basic authentication
