Protocol
Value (Hex)
Information
PAP
0x00040000
Password for authentication is being transmitted in clear-text! In-
secure!
CHAP
0x00080000
Uses a random value, together with the password, for creating a
one-way hash value which is being transmitted to the server for
authentication.
MS-CHAP
0x00100000
This is Microsoft’s implementation of CHAP. It provides several
enhancements to standard CHAP.
MS-CHAP v2
0x00200000
This is version 2 of the MS-Chap protocol. It provides mutual
authentication between peers. This protocol should be used!
EAP
0x00400000
Developed by the IETF. Supports several authentication mech-
anisms like RADIUS, certificates, … . However, this usually im-
plies other software packages to be installed on the CE device
and is therefore disabled by default.
To prohibit more than one protocol, you need to interpret the hexadecimal value like a bitmask and add the
bit-wise values. For example:
Protocols to prohibit PAP, CHAP, MS-CHAP
PAP value binary 0000 0000 0000 0100 0000 0000 0000 0000
CHAP value binary 0000 0000 0000 1000 0000 0000 0000 0000
MS-CHAP value binary 0000 0000 0001 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000
Overall binary value (sum) 0000 0000 0001 1100 0000 0000 0000 0000
Hex value to configure 0x001C0000
The Flags attribute configures if the RAS Server should allow any of the following features. Any of these
features can be combined by setting the appropriate bitmask value (similar to the procedure from above).

Information
Data Encryption
0x01
Requires data encryption, if set
Unauthenticated Access
0x02
Allows unauthenticated access, if set
Use of VJ header compression
0x04
Prevents the use, if set
Use data compression
0x08
Prevents the use, if set
Configure a modem connection
You can use a to the CE device attached modem for enabling incoming dial in connections. Therefore, the
resulting connection is a point-to-point communication via the telephone network.
