Understanding PPP Password Authentication Protocol
For interfaces with PPP encapsulation, you can configure interfaces to support the
Password Authentication Protocol (PAP), as defined in RFC 1334, PAP Authentication
Protocols. If authentication is configured, the PPP link negotiates using CHAP or PAP
protocol for authentication during the Link Control Protocol (LCP) negotiation phase.
PAP is only performed after the link establishment phase (LCP up) portion of the
authentication phase.
During authentication, the PPP link sends a PAP authentication-request packet to the
peer with an ID and password. The authentication-request packet is sent every 2 seconds,
similar to the CHAP challenge, until a response is received (acknowledgment packet,
nonacknowledgment packet). If an acknowledgment packet is received, the PPP link
transitions to the next state, the network phase. If a nonacknowledgment packet is
received, an LCP terminate request is sent, and the PPP link goes back to the link
establishment phase. If no response is received, and an optional retry counter is set to
true, a new request acknowledgment packet is resent. If the retry counter expires, the
PPP link transitions to the LCP negotiate phrase.
You can configure the PPP link with PAP in passive mode. By default, when PAP is enabled
on an interface, the interface expects authenticate-request packets from the peer.
However, the interface can be configured to send authentication request packets to the
peer by configuring PAP to operate in passive mode. In PAP passive mode, the interface
sends the authenticate-request packets to the peer only if the interface receives the PAP
option from the peer during LCP negotiation—in passive mode, the interface does not
authenticate the peer.
