for Password Authentication protocol. It is an authentication protocol uses a
password. PAP is used in Point-to-Point protocol, to validate users for giving

Radius client takes PAP id and password sends them in an Access-Request packet
as the User-Name and User-Password. Radius client may include the Attributes
Service-Type = Framed-User and Framed-Protocol = PPP as a hint to the RADIUS
