Description: If Proxy PPP was performed, then this field may indicate the type of authentication that was initiated
What is accL2tpSessionAuthMethod?
This OID identifies which authentication protocol was used during proxy PPP negotiation, such as PAP (Password Authentication Protocol) or CHAP (Challenge-Handshake Authentication Protocol). Engineers verify this value to ensure strong authentication methods are being enforced and to detect sessions using weaker protocols that may need policy updates. For example, if all sessions show auth method "PAP", you should review your security policy because PAP sends passwords in clear text, and you should enforce CHAP or MS-CHAPv2 instead.
