Use Client Certificate: This certificate is necessary for TLS and an option for PEPA and TTLS. Check “Use Client Certificate” to verify the authenticity of a Client Certificate during the authentication process.

Clicking More will open the Client Certificate Selection Window (shown in Figure 3-7). Users can select one suitable certificate as Client Certificate. (Default: OFF)

Tunnel Authentication: PEPA and TTLS use two-step authentication method. The first step is that Server sets up a Tunnel with its authentication. No option is need to be set for Client (the PC with the Adapter). The second step is to confirm the validity of Client with assigned authentication type in the Tunnel. Data needed for authentication includes Tunnel ID, Tunnel Password, Client Certificate or Server Authentication.

Protocol: Use assigned authentication type in the safe tunnel.

Tunnel ID: Users’ accounts.

Password: Passwords for users’ accounts.
