Hi Everyone,
I have spent the last couple of days playing with DDR using modems
(can't afford ISDN). I was under the impression from "Building Cisco
Remote Access Networks" that the called party was the first to issue a
challenge. But after looking at the debugs it appears that the calling
modem issues the challenge. Am I reading these debugs wrong?

Also, how does "callin" feature change the authentication process? The
"debug ppp auth" gives very little information about what is going on.
I've tried configuring the callin option several ways. First I put it on
both routers, which looks like normal ppp auth. The I added it on the
calling router and then the called router. In both cases it looks like
the same results. Can someone explain what goes on?

Thanks,
Stan Buskus
