Use the MLP tab of the PPP dialog box to define Multilink PPP (MLP) parameters for the selected PPP
connection.
Navigation Path
Go to the PPP Dialog Box, page 59-76, then click the MLP tab.
Password The password to send in PAP authentication requests. Enter the
password again in the Confirm field. The password can contain 1 to 25
uppercase or lowercase alphanumeric characters. The password is case
sensitive.
The username and password are sent if the peer requests the router to
authenticate itself using PAP.
Encrypted Password When selected, this indicates that the password you entered is already
encrypted.
When deselected, this indicates that the password you entered is in
clear text.
CHAP Authentication settings
Hostname By default, the router uses its hostname to identify itself to the peer. If
required, you can enter a different hostname to use for all CHAP
challenges and responses. For example, use this field to specify a
common alias for all routers in a rotary group.
Secret The secret used to compute the response value for any CHAP challenge
from an unknown peer. Enter the secret again in the Confirm field.
Encrypted Secret When selected, this indicates that the password you entered is already
encrypted. When deselected, this indicates that the password you
entered is in clear text.
Authorization settings
Authorize Using AAA authorization settings for the PPP connection:
• AAA Policy Default List—Uses the default authorization method
list that is defined in the device’s AAA policy. See AAA Policy
Page, page 60-6.
• Prioritized Method List—Defines a sequential list of methods to be
queried when authorizing a user. Enter the names of one or more
AAA server group objects (up to four), or click Select to select it.
Use the up and down arrows to define the order in which selected
server groups should be used. If the object that you want is not
listed, click the Create button to create it.
The device tries initially to authorize users using the first method
in the list. If that method fails to respond, the device tries the next
method, and so on, until a response is received.
Note Leave this field blank to perform authorization using the local
database on the router.
