has been negotiated, and Bi-Dir Auth is set to Required, the authentication takes place in only
one direction. The calling unit authenticates the MAX unit.

Setting up bidirectional CHAP on the MAX unit for selected incoming calls

Figure 4-10 shows a configuration in which the MAX unit authenticates the calling device by
means of CLID or DNIS authentication. The MAX unit and the dial-in client then authenticate
each other by means of CHAP.

Figure 4-10. Bidirectional CHAP for selected calls to the MAX unit

To configure selective bidirectional CHAP on the MAX unit for selected incoming calls,
proceed as follows:

1

Open the Ethernet > Answer profile.

2

Set the Profile Reqd parameter to Yes.

3

Set the Id Auth parameter to Prefer, Require, Called Require, Called Prefer, or Called
First.

4

Open the PPP Options subprofile.

5

Set the Bi-Dir Auth parameter to None or Allowed.

6

Exit the profile and, at the exit prompt, select the exit and accept option.

7

Open the Ethernet > Connections > Connection profile for which you want to set up
bidirectional CHAP.

8

If you are using CLID authentication, set the Calling # parameter to CLID.

9

If you are using DNIS authentication, set the Called # parameter to the number the calling
party dials.

10 Open the PPP Options subprofile.

11 Set the Send Auth parameter to CHAP. This value indicates the mode for both incoming

and outgoing authentication.

12 Set the Bi-Dir Auth parameter to Required or Allowed. Required specifies that

bidirectional authentication must be carried out or the call is dropped. Allowed specifies
that authentication can be bidirectional. The MAX unit identifies the calling device, and
the calling device can identify the MAX unit, but the calling device need not do so for the
call to be accepted.

13 Open the Encaps Options subprofile.

14 Set Send PW to any text string. The password you specify is the one sent to the calling

unit during the authentication initiated by the calling unit.

15 Set Recv PW to any text string. The password you specify is the one sent by the calling

unit during the authentication initiated by the MAX unit.
