Table 6-1.	Fields in Menu 13 - Default Dial-in Setup
Field		Description
Telco Options:
CLID Authen		This field sets the CLID authentication parameter for all incoming calls.
		The three options for this field are:
		• None—No CLID is required (default).
		• Required—You must provide the CLID, or the call is disconnected.
		• Preferred—If the CLID is available, it is used to do authentication. If the
		CLID is not available, the call continues.
PPP Options:
Recv Authen		This field sets the authentication protocol used for incoming calls.
		The four options for this field are:
		• CHAP/PAP—The router tries CHAP first, but PAP is used if CHAP is not
		available (default).
		• CHAP—Use CHAP only.
		• PAP—Use PAP only.
		• None—No authentication is required.
Compression		This field allows the negotiation of data compression with the equipment of
		the dial-in user.
Mutual Authen		Some vendors (for example, Cisco Systems) implement a type of mutual
		authentication. That is, the node that initiates the call requests a user
		name and password from the far end that it is dialing to. If the remote node
		that is dialing in implements this type of authentication, set this field to Yes.
		Choose one of the following for setting PAP:
		• PAP Login—This field is enabled only if the Mutual Authen field is
		set to Yes. Enter the login name to be used to respond to the PAP
		authentication request of the far end. This field does not apply to CHAP
		authentication.
		• PAP Password—This field is enabled only if the Mutual Authen field is
		set to Yes. Enter the PAP password to be used to respond to the
		authentication request of the far end. This field does not apply to CHAP
		authentication.
