4.2 Outgoing Authentication Protocol

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