Auth Type
Ĉ
You may choose PAP or CHAP authentication to enhance
the security of data transmission.
Ś
PAP –Short for Password Authentication Protocol , the
most basic form
of authentication, in which a user's name and
password are transmitted over a network and compared to a table
of name-password pairs. Typically, the passwords stored in the
table are encrypted. The Basic Authentication feature built into the
HTTP protocol uses PAP. The main weakness of PAP is that both the
username and password are transmitted "in the clear" -- that is, in an
unencrypted form.
Ś
CHAP –Short for Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol ,
a type of authentication in which the authentication agent (typically
a network server) sends the client program a random value that is
used only once and an ID value. Both the sender and peer share a
predefined secret.
