Inner Mode Sets the EAP-TTLS inner mode.
The WiMAX Device supports the following:
• MS-CHAP v2 - This is version 2 of Microsoft’s variant of Challenge
Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP). It allows for mutual
authentication between devices.
• MS-CHAP - This is Microsoft’s variant of Challenge Handshake
Authentication Protocol (CHAP). It allows for mutual authentication
between devices.
• CHAP - The Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP)
uses PPP to authenticate remote devices using a three-way
handshake and shared secret verification.
• MD5 - Message-Digest, algorithm 5, (MD5) encryption is typically
used for checking file integrity. Because this encryption protocol
contains a number of serious security flaws it is generally not
recommended that you use it for authentication security.
• PAP - Password Authentication Protocol uses unencrypted plaintext
to send a passwords for authentication over the network. It’s
probably not a good idea to rely on this for security.
