send a name or User ID, along with the authentication protocol’s secret or password (see above). Use
the

[S

Name>. If set at <Local Profile Name>, the local unit will send the 11 character unit name which
was defined on the Local (LAN) Profile screen. If this field is set to <Local Custom Name> you may
define a 32 character maximum alphanumeric value to represent the User ID which is sent during the
authentication process. Defining a custom User ID simply gives the end user more flexibility for this
value.
