Authentication Protocol

Select one of three methods to define the authentication protocol to be used when a remote site is dialing into your site:

None - No authentication needed.

PAP - User Name and unencrypted Password are transmitted over the network.

CHAP - DHCP sends a key which is used to encrypt the user name and password.

Note: If you select PAP or CHAP, you must indicate where the authentication process should occur, by selecting Use Local Settings, Use Local Client List or Use RADIUS Authentication.

Use Local Settings

If you check this option, the fields under this option become active for you to create a Remote User Name and Remote Password. All users will login to the system with this common user name and password.
