(Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol). CHAP is more secure than PAP;
however, PAP is readily available on more platforms.
Use the drop-down list box to select an authentication protocol for outgoing calls.
Options are:
AUTO: Your ZyXEL Device accepts either CHAP or PAP when requested by this remote
node.
PAP: Your ZyXEL Device accepts PAP only.
CHAP: Your ZyXEL Device accepts CHAP only.
MSCHAP: Your ZyXEL Device accepts MSCHAP only. MS-CHAP is the Microsoft version
of the CHAP.
