Description
This field sets the Calling Line Identification (CLID) authentication parameter for
all incoming calls. There are three options for this field:
• None: No CLID is required. This is the default.
• Required: Must provide CLID, or the call is disconnected.
• Preferred: If the CLID is available, CLID is used for authentication. If the CLID
is not available, the call continues.
This field sets the authentication protocol used for incoming calls. User names
and passwords are configured for individual users in following screens. Options
for this field are:
• CHAP/PAP: The router will try CHAP first, but PAP will be used if CHAP is not
available. (Default)
• CHAP: Use CHAP only.
• PAP: Use PAP only.
• None: No authentication required.
Some vendors implement a type of mutual authentication. The node that initiates
the call requests a user name and password from the far end that the initiating
node is dialing to. If the remote node that is dialing in implements this type of
authentication, set this field to Yes.
This field is enabled only if the Mutual Authentication field is set to Yes. Enter the
login name to be used to respond to the PAP authentication request of the far
end. This field does not apply to CHAP authentication.
This field is enabled only if the Mutual Authentication field is set to Yes. Enter the
PAP password to be used to respond to the authentication request of the far
end. This field does not apply to CHAP authentication.
This value is the number of idle seconds that elapses before the dial-in user is
automatically disconnected. Idle timeout is the period of time when there is no
data traffic between the dial-in user or remote node and the router. This field is
used only if the Authentication field is set to None and the call is not mapped to
any remote node or remote dial-in user or if the router calls back to the remote
dial-in user.
Enter the maximum data transfer rate in kilobits per second (Kbps) between
your router and the remote dial-in user. There are two options for this field:
• 64K: One B channel is used.
• 128K: One or both B channels can be used. (Default)
When the router calls back to the Remote Dial-in User the maximum data
transfer rate is always 64 Kbps.
