username and password may be different for the CHAP and PAP authentication protocols.

Examples
ppp commands are not required for typical use of the Router. The most common use of the ppp
commands is to turn off the CHAP authentication protocol. Other commands require a more detailed
knowledge of the PPP protocol and are not recommended for use without such knowledge. For
example:
ppp modem0 lcp local auth none
This command sets the authentication type to none. The other choices are pap and chap.
Users often set the authentication type to none to examine the WAN link and then turn authentication
back on (chap or pap) once they are satisfied that the link is functioning properly.
The following commands are often used to connect to an Ascend router’s modem. Check the
parameters set on the Ascend router before using these commands. Note that the commands listed
below must be issued on both sides of the connection for proper configuration:
ppp modem0 lcp local accm 0xa0000
ppp modem0 lcp local acfc off
ppp modem0 lcp local pfc off
ppp modem0 pap user user_acct pwd
