With CHAP authentication a known "secret" is sent between the
authenticator and the peer. Although CHAP authentication is one-way RFC
1994 states that the same "secret" may be used for mutual
authentication. This would be where both sides act as an authenticator
and a peer and use the same "secret". This is why the passwords must be
the same for CHAP authentication.

Subject: ppp chap password
I have a question about ppp chap. I know ppp pap can
have different passwords on each side. This is done
with the ppp sent username password command. Can the
ppp chap password be different on each side? If you
have an example that would be helpful. I have tried
using the ppp chap password command but it has not
worked. Any clue?
