4.2.3 Outgoing Authentication Protocol
For obvious reasons you should generally employ the strongest authentication protocol possible. However,
some vendors’ implementation includes a 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 you encounter a case where the peer disconnects right after a
successful authentication, please make sure that you specify the correct authentication protocol when
connecting to such an implementation.
4.2.4 Bridging in General
Bridging bases the forwarding decision on the MAC (Media Access Control), or hardware address and
allows the Prestige to transport packets of network layer protocols.
