	ttUserInterface interfaceHandle,
	ttEapMd5AuthFuncPtr authFuncPtr
	);

Function Description

When acting as a PPP server, a function must be called to validate an incoming authentication request. This function is passed the username and must return the associated secret.

The prototype of the notification function is:

char * myEapMd5Authenticate(char * username, int * errorCode);

If the username is valid and a secret is being returned, *errorCode should be set to TM_ENOERROR. However, if the specified username is invalid (an unknown user, for example), *errorCode should be set to a non-zero value.

Parameters

• interfaceHandle

  The interface for which to use this authentication routine.

• authFuncPtr

  The pointer to the function to authenticate the remote user.

Returns

• TM_ENOERROR

  Success.

• TM_EINVAL

  Invalid 'interfaceHandle' or 'authFuncPtr'.

• TM_ENOPROTOOPT

  'interfaceHandle' refers to a device that does not support EAP.
