Re: (ASCEND) Problem with CLID/CHAP-PAP and RADIUS

Actually, this isn't quite true--IF you are running a later patch release of
5.0A. This was a known bug in 5.0A release version; upgrade yourself to
5.0Ap7. Correctly, this option tried CLID, and if that authentication
request fails, answers the call anyway and performs PAP/CHAP. This appears
to be the option you want, with the bug.

I'm not quite sure, either. I believe this performs CLID if PAP and CHAP
are both rejected by the remote peer.

Not really. You can use:
5155552121 Password = "Ascend-CLID"
Attribute = Value, ...
on Id Auth=Prefer; this is in fact how that option works.
