Sets the authentication protocol expected for inbound calls.

sent authentication protocol

Sets the authentication protocol sent for inbound calls.

Configures CHAP authentication.

pap

Configures PAP authentication.

Default Values

By default, there is no configuration for authentication.

Applicable Platforms

This command applies to the NetVanta 1000R, 3000, 4000, and 5000 Series units.

Command History

Release 11.1

Command was introduced.

Functional Notes

There are certain PPP parameters that must be known before PPP can negotiate an inbound call when
using demand routing. To ensure PPP convergence, it is recommended (in most cases) that demand
routing interfaces use the same settings as those specified in the data-call commands. If the PPP
parameters do not match the authenticated user, the link is renegotiated.

Usage Examples

The following example sets the authentication protocol expected for incoming calls to CHAP. The router
will then authenticate the peer using CHAP:

(config)#data-call authentication protocol chap

The following example sets the authentication protocol sent for incoming calls to PAP. This router may be
authenticated by the peer using PAP:

(config)#data-call sent authentication protocol pap
