Specify the Local username and Local password this profile will send to the remote site during the
authentication process. For example, the ISP profile uses these values to log on to your ISP account.
Note
Local username and Local password are case-sensitive.
5.
Specify the type of password the DIVA LAN ISDN Modem will send to the remote: encrypted or any
(unchecked). If the remote is not using the same type of encryption, the call will be rejected.
Note
This setting applies to outgoing calls only.
6.
Enable Always authenticate the remote if you want the DIVA LAN ISDN Modem to ask the remote to
identify itself with a username and password. The DIVA LAN ISDN Modem will compare the values the
remote sends against the settings you make for Remote username and Remote password. Remote
username and Remote password are case-sensitive.
Note
This setting applies to outgoing calls only. The DIVA LAN ISDN Modem always authenticates the
remote when receiving an incoming call.
