Gateway Half Dial Link Configuration
Fields Enable dial
ID protocol
(Y/N) A Y (Yes) value activates the dial ID protocol for a dial
link. The dial ID protocol verifies the identity of a
remote node and ensures that both local and remote
nodes have the required security access.
The dial ID protocol should be disabled (by entering N)
only to connect a dial link to a remote node that does
not support the dial ID protocol (that is, a non-HP
node).
