Authentication, Addresses and DNS Servers
PPP authentication utilizes PAP or CHAP. Your ISP will provide you with a user-ID
and password along with a phone number which you will enter in the GUI. The
authentication process will assign a local IP address and addresses of the ISPs DNS
servers to the router. You should use these DNS servers unless you wish to provide
your own.
You will obtain either a dynamic or static IP from your ISP. Firewall configuration
should be performed as is appropriate.
