4.1.3 Outgoing Authentication Protocol
For obvious reasons, you should employ the strongest authentication protocol possible. However, some
vendor’s implementation includes specific authentication protocol in the user profile. It will disconnect if
the negotiated protocol is different from that in the user profile, even when the negotiated protocol is
stronger than specified. If the peer disconnects right after a successful authentication, make sure that you
specify the correct authentication protocol when connecting to such an implementation.
