Chapter 24 Remote Node Configuration

24.2.3 Outgoing Authentication Protocol

For obvious reasons, you should employ the strongest authentication protocol possible.
However, some vendors’ implementation includes specific authentication protocol in the user
profile. It will disconnect if the negotiated protocol is different from that in the user profile,
even when the negotiated protocol is stronger than specified. If the peer disconnects right after
a successful authentication, make sure that you specify the correct authentication protocol
when connecting to such an implementation.

PAP – accept PAP (Password Authentication Protocol) only.
