authentication is set for PAP, as this is usually the most popular
security parameter that ISP’s and other remote networks set up
for a point-to-point connection use.
■ If you choose None, and the remote network expects to
connect to the Netopia Router using this connection pro-
file, you may need to set the answer profile to accept calls
using no authentication (None). See
“Default profile” on
page 2-39 .
■ If you choose to use PAP for calling the remote network,
you will need to obtain a name and password from the
remote network’s administrator. Enter the name in Send
User Name and enter the password in Send Password. If
you want the remote network to use this connection profile
when it calls the Netopia Router, select Receive Name and
enter a name. Select Receive Password and enter a pass-
word. You will need to give this name and password to the
remote network’s administrator.
If you choose PAP, and the remote network expects to connect
to the Netopia Router using this connection profile, you may
need to set the answer profile to accept calls using PAP. See
“Default profile” on page 2-39 .
■ If you choose to use CHAP for calling the remote network,
obtain a name and secret (the CHAP term for password)
from the remote network’s administrator. Enter the name
in Send Host Name and enter the password in Send
Secret. If you want the remote network to use this connec-
tion profile when it calls the Netopia Router, select Receive
Host Name and enter a name. Select Receive Secret and
enter a secret. You will need to give this name and secret
to the remote network’s administrator.
Note: If you choose CHAP, and the remote network expects to
connect to the Netopia Router using this connection profile, you
may need to set the answer profile to accept calls using CHAP.
