Select the Send Authentication pop-up menu and choose the
type of connection security suppor ted by the network being
called. This should be
PAP , CHAP , or None (if the remote
network does not use PAP or CHAP). If you choose PAP or
CHAP , two (2) “send” and two (2) “receive” items appear below
the Send Authentication pop-up menu. On the Netopia ISDN
Router the default authentication is set for PAP, as this is
usually the most popular security parameter that ISP’s (Internet
Ser vice Providers) and other remote networks (set up for a
point-to-point connection) use.
Note: If you choose None , and the remote network expects to
connect to the Netopia ISDN Router using this connection
profile, you may need to set the answer profile to accept calls
using no authentication (
None ). See “Answering calls” on
page 2-26 .
