Enhanced support for MS-CHAP
Support for the LAN Manager version of MS-CHAP enables you to specify MS-CHAP
authentication in RADIUS.
LAN Manager MS-CHAP support
LAN Manager and Windows 95 support a DES-based form of MS-CHAP. In the past, the
MAX unit was unable to support this form of authentication because it lacked knowledge of
the key used in password encryption. The MAX unit provides a key for encrypting passwords
by means of DES.
RADIUS support for MS-CHAP
RFC 2548 defines the VSA attributes necessary for supporting MS-CHAP authentication by
means of RADIUS. Two new VSA attributes are supported:
•

Configuring dial-in PPP for AppleTalk
You can configure a MAX unit so that individual users can dial into an AppleTalk network by
using a PPP dialer, such as AppleTalk Remote Access 3.0 or Pacer PPP. The MAX unit does
not need to be set up as an AppleTalk router to support dial-in PPP to AppleTalk.
You can set up a unit to enable an AppleTalk client to dial in using PPP in two ways:
