type —Authentication type:
—Use the MD5 algorithm to create an encoded checksum of the packet. The

uses the authentication key to verify the packet, discarding it if the digest does not
match. This algorithm provides a more secure authentication scheme.
none —Disable authentication. If
is ignored.
—Use a simple password. The password is included in the transmitted packet,
simple
