Configuring Host Password

Use the following sample configuration to specify the host password at DNN level which is used as a password for PAP-based authentication.

config 
   profile dnn profile_name 
      outbound password password 
      end 

NOTES:

  • profile dnn profile_name : Specify the DNN profile name as an alphanumeric string to enter the DNN configuration mode.

  • outbound password password : Specify the DNN host password for authentication. By default, the SMF sends this password in PAP user-password if it is not explicitly overridden using the password-use-pco option.

    By default, the SMF encrypts the given password using AES-128-CFB encryption algorithm.
