Contains the authentication parameters for this endpoint:
Rx Method
These are methods the ATLAS uses to authenticate the peer. None
is selected when you do not want to authenticate the peer. PAP,
CHAP, or EAP is selected when you will allow the peer to be
authenticated with one of the listed authentication protocols. In this
case, the most secure method will be used first (EAP, then CHAP,
then PAP). CHAP or EAP is selected when you will authenticate
the peer only using one of the encrypted authentication protocols.
EAP is selected when you will authenticate the peer only using the
EAP authentication protocol.
Rx Authentication
Selects the different types of authentication used to authenticate the
peer. To use the local username and password for this port, select
L .
OCAL
Rx Username
The username ATLAS uses to authenticate the peer.
Rx Password

Tx Method
This field displays a list of the methods that we will allow the peer
to authenticate us with. This is of use when a peer wants to do PAP
just to get your password. None is selected when you do not want to
be authenticated by the peer. PAP, CHAP, or EAP is selected when
you will let the peer use one or all of the authentication protocols.
CHAP or EAP is selected when you will let the peer use only one of
the encrypted authentication protocols. EAP is selected when you
will let the peer use only the EAP authentication protocol.
Tx Username
The username that the peer will use to authenticate the ATLAS.
Tx Password
The password that the peer will use to authenticate the ATLAS.
