10: Device Ports Modem Settings: PPP Mode Negotiate IP Address If the EMG unit and/or the serial device have dynamic IP addresses (e.g., IP addresses assigned by a DHCP server), select Yes. Yes is the default. If the EMG or the modem have fixed IP addresses, select No, and enter the Local IP (IP address of the port) and Remote IP (IP address of the modem). Authentication Enables PAP or CHAP authentication for modem logins. PAP is the default. With PAP, users are authenticated by means of the Local Users and any of the remote authentication methods that are enabled. With CHAP, the CHAP Handshake fields authenticate the user. CHAP Handshake The Host/User Name (for UNIX systems) or Secret/User Password (for Windows systems) used for CHAP authentication. May have up to 128 characters. CHAP Auth Uses For CHAP authentication, determines what is used to validate the CHAP host/ user sent by the remote peer: either the CHAP Host defined for the modem, or any of the users in the Local Users list. Same authentication for Dial-in & Dial-on-Demand (DOD) Select this option to let incoming connections (dial-in) use the same authentication settings as outgoing connections (dial-on-demand). If this option is not selected, then the dial-on-demand connections take their authentication settings from the DOD parameter settings. If DOD Authentication is PAP, then the DOD CHAP Handshake field is not used. DOD Authentication Enables PAP or CHAP authentication for dial-in & dial-on-demand. PAP is the default. With PAP, users are authenticated by means of the Local Users and any of the remote authentication methods that are enabled. With CHAP, the DOD CHAP Handshake fields authenticate the user. DOD CHAP Handshake For DOD Authentication, enter the Host/User Name for UNIX systems) or Secret/User Password (for Windows systems) used for CHAP authentication. May have up to 128 characters. Enable NAT Select to enable Network Address Translation (NAT) for dial-in and dial-out PPP connections on a per modem (device port or USB port) basis.

CBCP Server Allow No Callback For CBCP Server state, allows "No Callback" as an option in the CBCP handshake in addition to User-defined Number and Admin-defined Number. CBCP Client Type For CBCP Client, this selects the number that the client would like to use for callback - either a user-defined number passed to the server (specified by the Fixed Dial-back Number) or an administrator-defined number determined by the server based on the login that is PAP or CHAP authenticated. 3.
