juniPppLinkConfigAuthentication

Module: Juniper-PPP-MIB

OID (symbolic): Juniper-PPP-MIB::juniPppLinkConfigAuthentication

OID (numeric): 1.3.6.1.4.1.4874.2.2.11.1.1.2.1.5

Node type: OBJECT-TYPE

Type: JuniPppAuthentication

Access: read-create

Description: Specifies the type(s) of authentication, if any, to be negotiated with the peer: none No authentication is negotiated. pap PAP negotiation only. chap CHAP negotiation only. papChap PAP negotiation is attempted first; if fails, attempt CHAP. chapPap CHAP negotiation is attempted first; if fails, attempt PAP.

If authentication negotiation is not supported for this PPP interface, then any attempt to explicitely set this object will result in a notWritable error and it will be implicitily set to the DEFVAL on row creation.

Setting this object to none(0) will set juniPppLinkConfigAuthenticatorVirtualRouter object to an empty string.

This object returns a null(0) value on the get operation. New object juniPppLinkConfigAuthentication2 will reflect the configured values.

Setting this object along with the juniPppLinkConfigAuthentication2 object will return an inconsistentValue error.

What is juniPppLinkConfigAuthentication?

This configures which PPP authentication method(s) -- none, pap, chap, papChap, or chapPap -- are offered to the peer during LCP negotiation. Admins pick papChap or chapPap to allow a fallback method when the peer doesn't support the preferred one, or chap alone for stronger security. For example, setting this to chap enforces CHAP-only authentication and rejects peers that only support PAP.
