Transcript text: What does a remote access server use for authorization?
Remote access policies
CHAP or MS-CHAP
SLIP or PPP
Usernames and passwords
Solution
The answer is the first one: remote access policies.
Explanation for each option:
Remote access policies: Correct. Remote access servers use remote access policies to determine whether a user is authorized to connect to the network. These policies can include conditions such as time of day, type of connection, and user group membership.
CHAP or MS-CHAP: Incorrect. CHAP (Challenge-Handshake Authentication Protocol) and MS-CHAP (Microsoft Challenge-Handshake Authentication Protocol) are authentication protocols used to verify the identity of a user or device, not for authorization.
SLIP or PPP: Incorrect. SLIP (Serial Line Internet Protocol) and PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol) are protocols used for establishing a direct connection between two network nodes, typically for dial-up connections. They are not used for authorization.
Usernames and passwords: Incorrect. Usernames and passwords are used for authentication, which is the process of verifying the identity of a user. Authorization, on the other hand, determines what resources the authenticated user is allowed to access, which is managed by remote access policies.
Summary:
Remote access servers use remote access policies for authorization to determine if a user is allowed to connect to the network based on various conditions.
