Field Description Options
Outgoing: My
Password This is a required field [?] if [Call Direction] is either [Both]
or [Outgoing]. Enter the password for your Prestige when it
calls this Remote Node.
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).
l
PAP sends the user name and password in plain text.
l
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:
l
CHAP/PAP - Your Prestige will try CHAP when
CHAP is requested by the Remote Node or PAP
when PAP is requested by the Remote Node.
[CHAP/PAP]
l
CHAP - use CHAP only. [CHAP]
Outgoing: Authen
l
PAP - use PAP only. [PAP]
