SLIP and PPP Security
You configure access to a SLIP or PPP link from the RA 6300
as follows:
1. Set the mode parameter to cli and have the user issue the slip or
ppp command from the CLI.
If the mode parameter is set to slip, the RA 6300 does not perform a
security check.
2. If you want authentication performed on the CLI connection
(rather than authenticating when the user issues the slip or ppp
command), set the slip_ppp_security and cli_security parameters
to Y. Then proceed to step 4.
3. To have authentication performed when the user issues the slip
or ppp command (rather than authenticating when the CLI
connection is made) set the cli_security parameter to N and the
slip_ppp_security parameter to Y.
4. Define a security server using the pref_secure1_host,
pref_secure2_host, or security_broadcast parameter (see
Configuring the Security Server
5. Create entries in the acp_regime file defining the authentication
systems to be used and the conditions under which to use
them.
The install program creates the acp_regime file, then prompts you
for a default regime and password file name, which it enters into
acp_regime. Subsequently, you can add to and/or change the
contents of this file. (See
15-245.)
6. Create entries in the appropriate password files (see
User Password Files
7. (Optional) Configure encryption for security messages (see
Encrypting Security Messages
