Guys, What are the authentications used in PPP? sabastian 21-April-2009 03:30:36 AMComments PAP uses a two-way authentication process where the username and password is sent followed by a response message indicating successful or failed authentication. CHAP, however, is much more paranoid about its authentication. It performs a three-way authentication process, which takes place not only at the beginning of a connection, but also every two minutes. As if that wasn't paranoid enough, CHAP never sends the password across the link. Instead, an MD5 hash is used to mask the password.
