Fields in Menu 13 - Default Dial-in Setup

Field

Description

Telco Options:

CLID Authen

This field sets the CLID authentication parameter for all incoming calls.
The three options for this field are:
• None—No CLID is required (default).
• Required—You must provide the CLID, or the call is disconnected.
• Preferred—If the CLID is available, it is used to do authentication. If the

CLID is not available, the call continues.

PPP Options:

Recv Authen

This field sets the authentication protocol used for incoming calls.
The four options for this field are:
• CHAP/PAP—The router tries CHAP first, but PAP is used if CHAP is not

available (default).

• CHAP—Use CHAP only.
• PAP—Use PAP only.
• None—No authentication is required.

Compression

This field allows the negotiation of data compression with the equipment of
the dial-in user.

Mutual Authen

Some vendors (for example, Cisco Systems) implement a type of mutual
authentication. That is, the node that initiates the call requests a user
name and password from the far end that it is dialing to. If the remote node
that is dialing in implements this type of authentication, set this field to Yes.
Choose one of the following for setting PAP:
• PAP Login—This field is enabled only if the Mutual Authen field is

set to Yes. Enter the login name to be used to respond to the PAP
authentication request of the far end. This field does not apply to CHAP
authentication.

• PAP Password—This field is enabled only if the Mutual Authen field is

set to Yes. Enter the PAP password to be used to respond to the
authentication request of the far end. This field does not apply to CHAP
authentication.

Callback Budget Management:

Allocated Budget (min)

This field sets a budget callback time for all the remote dial-in users.
The default for this field is 0 for no budget control.

Period (hr)

This field sets the time interval to reset the above callback budget control.
