> Remote Name
This is the name of the remote device.
• For PAP entries, this is the name of the device we are requesting a pass-
word from, when the Request PAP Authentication checkbox is set in
this router’s PAP Configuration Dialog Box.
• For CHAP entries, this is the name of the device we will send a challenge
to, when the Request CHAP Authentication checkbox is set in this
router’s CHAP Configuration Dialog Box.
v Note: If there is a Compatible Systems router at the far end, these names
correspond to the names entered in the CHAP Configuration Dialog Box
and/or PAP Configuration Dialog Box Name fields.
> Password/Secret
This is the password or secret string for the remote device.
• For PAP entries, this is the password value which must be returned from
the remote device before we will grant it access to this router.
• For CHAP entries, this is the secret value which is shared with the remote
device which will be challenged by this router. This value, along with the
random value in the challenge, will be used to determine whether a
response is valid.
v Note: If there is a Compatible Systems router at the far end, these strings
correspond to the Password entered in the PAP Configuration Dialog Box
and/or the Secret entered in the CHAP Configuration Dialog Box.
> Interfaces
This is the list of interfaces on which we will accept the entered Name and
Password as valid. The entry will be invalid on interfaces not selected here.
