then will run as the secondary protocol. This is the default setting.

z PAP: Password Authentication Procedure. Authentication is done through username

and password.

z CHAP: Challenge-Handshake Authentication Protocol. Typically more secure than

PAP, CHAP uses username and password in combination with a randomly generated

challenge string which has to be authenticated using a one-way hashing function.

; MTU: Maximum Transmission Unit. The largest size packet that can be sent by the modem.

If the network stack of any packet is larger than the MTU value, then the packet will be

fragmented before the transmission. This can be set from a minimum 128 to maximum 1500.

; On Demand: Enables on-demand mode. The connection will disconnect if no activity is

detected after the specified idle timeout value. When checked, this field enables the Idle

Timeout field.

; Default Gateway: If checked, this connection becomes the default gateway to the Internet.

; Enforce MTU: Check box if you experience problems accessing the Internet over a PPPoE

connection. This feature will force all TCP traffic to conform with PPP MTU by changing TCP

Maximum Segment Size to PPP MTU. MTU (Maximum Transmission Unit) is defined as the

maximum packet size (In bytes), that a particular interface can handle.
