(Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol). CHAP is more secure than PAP; 
however, PAP is readily available on more platforms.
Use the drop-down list box to select an authentication protocol for outgoing calls. 
Options are:
CHAP/PAP - Your ZyWALL accepts either CHAP or PAP when requested by this 
remote node. 
CHAP - Your ZyWALL accepts CHAP only. 
PAP - Your ZyWALL accepts PAP only.
