9.
Enter the authentication information needed. To begin entering the information, select
Authentication from the Device Table Menu. The following menu will then be displayed:
Provide the necessary device authentication information for your selected Line Protocol. (Refer
to
On-node Device Database Security Requirements
for details). For example, for a PPP device,
specify a CHAP secret. Or, for an HDLC device, enter a Bridge Ethernet Address.
For PPP, the ability to enable/disable outbound authentication (selection 3) is available.
However, it is generally not necessary to enable outbound authentications on a point-to-point
line. If the device is associated with a frame relay virtual circuit, and the PVC name is different
than the device name, then outbound authentication is required.
In addition, if you want to add user-level security to IP, AppleTalk and bridge devices, you
may also enable User Level Authentication. This requires the user that initiates a connection
between the remote device and the CyberSWITCH to be authenticated at the user level as well.
Refer to
Device and User Level Security
for details.
Note: Do not enable User Level Authentication for terminal server devices which connect
through the digital modem.
