!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] ([PAP]) is a [password-based] [authentication] [protocol] used by [Point-to-Point Protocol] ([PPP]) to validate users.
Almost all network [Operating System] remote servers support [{$pagename}].
[{$pagename}] is considered a __weak__ [authentication] scheme and [SHOULD] be avoided in general.
[{$pagename}]'s deficiencies is the fact that it transmits [plaintext] [passwords] over the network. [{$pagename}] is therefore used only as a __last resort__ when the remote server does not support a stronger scheme such as [CHAP] or [EAP].
