Specifies
Send Auth
Authentication protocol that the unit uses to send a password to the far
end of a PPP connection.
end of a PPP connection.
Send Name
Name that the unit sends to the far end device during PPP
authentication. Authentication fails if the name does not match what
the far-end device expects. Also, authentication fails if either the
password or IP address (for IP-routed connections) for the Connection
profile does not match what the far-end device expects. You can
specify up to 16 characters. The default is null.

Send PW
Password that the unit sends to the far end while the connection is
being authenticated. If this password is not received by the far-end
device, authentication fails. If the link uses Combinet bridging and the
far-end Answer profile specifies that a password is required (Password
Reqd=Yes), you must enter a password using all lowercase letters.

Aux Send PW
Password the unit sends when it adds channels to a multichannel PPP
call that uses PAP-TOKEN-CHAP authentication. The unit obtains
authentication of the first channel of this call from the user’s hand-held
security card.

DBA Monitor
How the unit monitors the traffic over an MP+ connection. Only the
initiating side of the call can add or subtract bandwidth. If both sides
of the link have DBA Monitor set to None, DBA is disabled.
