8.6 PPTP VPN Client
Use this screen to view settings for Point to Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) clients.
Auth Protocol Select the Authentication Protocol allowed for the connection. Options are:
• PAP - Password Authentication Protocol (PAP) authentication occurs in clear
text and does not use encryption. It’s probably not a good idea to rely on this
for security.
• CHAP - Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) provides
authentication through a shared secret key and uses a three way handshake.
• MSCHAPv1 - Microsoft CHAP v1 (MSCHAPv1) provides authentication
through a shared secret key and uses a three way handshake. It provides
improved usability with Microsoft products.
• MSCHAPv2 - Microsoft CHAP v2 (MSCHAPv2) provides encryption through a
shared secret key and uses a three way handshake. It provides additional
security over MSCHAPv1, including two-way authentication.
MPPE
