Outgoing Authentication Protocol

Generally speaking, you should employ the strongest authentication protocol possible, for obvious reasons.
However, some vendor’s 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.

Nailed-Up Connection

A nailed-up connection is a dial-up line where the connection is always up regardless of traffic demand. The
ZyWALL does two things when you specify a nailed-up connection. The first is that idle timeout is disabled.
The second is that the ZyWALL will try to bring up the connection when turned on and whenever the
connection is down. A nailed-up connection can be very expensive for obvious reasons.
