CHAP Authentication settings

 

 

 

Hostname

 

By default, the router uses its hostname to identify itself to the peer. If

 

 

required, you can enter a different hostname to use for all CHAP challenges

 

 

and responses. For example, use this field to specify a common alias for all

 

 

routers in a rotary group.

 

 

 

Secret

 

The secret used to compute the response value for any CHAP challenge from

 

 

an unknown peer. Enter the secret again in the Confirm field.

 

 

Encrypted Secret

When selected, this indicates that the password you entered is already

 

 

encrypted. When deselected, this indicates that the password you entered is

 

 

in clear text.

 

 

 

Authorization settings

 

 

Authorize Using

AAA authorization settings for the PPP connection:

AAA Policy Default List—Uses the default authorization method list that is defined in the device’s AAA policy. See AAA Policy Page, page K-87.

Prioritized Method List—Defines a sequential list of methods to be queried when authorizing a user. Enter the names of one or more AAA server group objects (up to four), or click Select to display an Object Selectors, page F-593. Use the tranverse arrows in the AAA Sever Groups Selector to select server groups and then the up and down arrows to define the order in which selected server groups should be used.

Note The device tries initially to authorize users using the first method in the list. If that method fails to respond, the device tries the next method, and so on, until a response is received.

If the AAA server group you want is not listed, you can click the Create button in the selector to display the AAA Server Group Dialog Box, page F-12. From here you can define a AAA server group object.

Note Leave this field blank to perform authorization using the local database on the router.
