Names and Passwords Example

In the sample configuration provided, the small office SOHO communicates
with the central site HQ and the Internet Service Provider ISP.
System Passwords
SOHO has a system password 'SOHOpasswd'. This password is used
when SOHO dials out to site HQ for authentication by that site, and at
any time when HQ challenges SOHO.
HQ has a system password 'HQpasswd' which is, likewise, used when
HQ dials out to site SOHO for authentication by SOHO, and at any time
SOHO challenges HQ.
ISP has a system password 'ISPpasswd' used for the same purpose.
Remote Passwords
Each router has a remote router's password for each remote router
defined in its Remote Router Database. The router will use the remote
password to authenticate the remote site when the remote router dials in
or is challenged by the local site.
For example, SOHO has remote router entries for HQ and ISP, and
defined in each entry are the respective remote router's password.
The following table shows the names and passwords for each router that must
be defined for authentication to be performed correctly. (This assumes that
all three systems use some form of authentication protocol.)
Note: If you have trouble with passwords, we recommend that you set the
remote router security to "disable authentication" to simplify the process.
