*****
Outgoing: Authen This field sets the authentication protocol used for outgoing calls.
Your Prestige supports two authentication protocols: PAP
(Password Authentication Protocol) and CHAP (Challenge
Handshake Authentication Protocol).
• PAP sends the user name and password in plain text.
• CHAP scrambles the password before it is sent over the wire.
Generally speaking, CHAP is more secure than PAP, however,
PAP is readily available on more platforms. The recommendation
is to use CHAP whenever possible. Turning off the authentication
is STRONGLY discouraged.
Options for this field are:
• CHAP/PAP – your Prestige tries CHAP when CHAP is
requested by the Remote Node or PAP when PAP is
requested by the Remote Node.
• CHAP – use CHAP only.
• PAP – use PAP only.
