Shiva Password Authentication Protocol (SPAP)

Shiva Password Authentication Protocol (SPAP) is a simple encrypted password authentication protocol supported by Shiva remote access servers. With SPAP, the remote access client sends an encrypted password to the remote access server. SPAP uses a two-way encryption algorithm. The remote access server decrypts the password and uses the plaintext form to authenticate the remote access client.

To configure a connection for SPAP, see Configure identity authentication and data encryption settings.

Note

  • You cannot use Microsoft Point-to-Point Encryption (MPPE) if SPAP is used to authenticate the connection.
