Bias-Free Language

The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product. Learn more about how Cisco is using Inclusive Language.

Introduction

This document examines common debugging problems for RADIUS when using Password Authentication Protocol (PAP) or Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP). Common PC settings for Microsoft Windows 95, Windows NT, Windows 98, and Windows 2000 are provided, as well as examples of configurations and examples of good and bad debugs.

Before You Begin

Prerequisites

There are no specific prerequisites for this document.

Components Used

The information in this document is based on Cisco IOS® Software Releases 11.2 and later.

The information presented in this document was created from devices in a specific lab environment. All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If you are working in a live network, ensure that you understand the potential impact of any command before using it.

Common PC Setting

Windows 95

Follow the instructions provided below:

  1. In the Dialup Networking window, select the connection name, then File > Properties.

  2. On the Server Type tab, see if the Require Encrypted Password box beneath Type of Dial-up Server is checked.

    • If this box is checked, it means the PC accepts only CHAP authentication.

    • If this box is not checked, it means the PC accepts PAP or CHAP authentication.

Windows NT

Follow the instructions provided below:

  1. In the Dial-Up Networking window, select the connection name, and then select File > Properties.

  2. Check the settings on the Security tab:

    • If the Accept any authentication including clear text box is checked, this means the PC accepts PAP or CHAP.

    • If the Accept only encrypted authentication box is checked, the PC accepts only CHAP authentication.

Windows 98

Follow the instructions provided below:

  1. In the Dial-Up Networking window, select the connection name, and then select Properties.

  2. On the Server Types tab, check the settings in the Advanced Options area:

    • If the Require encrypted password box is unchecked, this means the PC accepts PAP or CHAP authentication.

    • If the Require encrypted password box is checked, this means the PC accepts only CHAP authentication.

Windows 2000

Follow the instructions provided below:

  1. In Network and Dial-Up Connections, select the connection name, and then select Properties.

  2. On the Security tab, check the settings in the Advanced > Settings > Allow these protocols area:

    • If the Unencrypted password (PAP) box is checked, the PC accepts PAP.

    • If the Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) box is checked, the PC accepts CHAP per RFC 1994.

    • If the Microsoft CHAP (MS-CHAP) box is checked, the PC accepts MS-CHAP version 1 and does not accept CHAP per RFC 1994.
