name
and
password
that the specified PPP port uses in the event the PPP peer
requests authentication.
Syntax Description
Default
The default value of both
name
and

Usage Guidelines
The
name
is also sent when a port transmits a CHAP authentication request. The implementation
responds to either CHAP or PAP authentication requests issued by the peer regardless of whether the
port is configured to authenticate the peer. The
name
parameter is a string with a length in the range of
[1..32] characters. The
password
parameter is also a character string, with a maximum length of 32
characters. If no
password
is provided on the command line, then you are prompted to enter the
password twice (with the second time serving as a confirmation). You should not enter the encrypted
parameter option (it is used by the switch when generating an ASCII configuration).
Example

titus
