Configuring the Maximum Retries for PAP and CHAP Authentication
You can optionally specify the maximum number of authentication retries the router allows before terminating the PPP session. By default, no retries are allowed for PAP and CHAP authentication. You can specify a value between 0 to 7. You can specify the value for maximum number of authentication retries from the Interface Configuration Mode and the Subinterface Configuration Mode.
To specify the maximum number of authentication retries:
- (Optional) From the Interface Configuration mode, specify
the following command:host1(config-if)#ppp max-bad-auth 3
Use the no version to return the number of retries to the default, 0.
