Matt,
         That's correct.  Think about authentication in terms of  cisco's 3
tier design model;

Core(WAN)
Distribution(Routed/Switched)
Access(User)

This is why you get the message you noted.

> 01:57:10: Se0 PPP: Treating connection as a dedicated line

The use of authentication within ppp,  is typically to provide "user access"
authentication support whereas within the WAN authentication might be
implemented thorugh the use of physical security, or within a routing
protocol itself.

Take a look at the Dial ISDN/Async configuration areas of CCO, this may
help.  Here's a link to using two routers in a back-to-back scanerio, using
authentication.

watch the line wrap.

The one exception here would be no need to use the "multilink" command if
using one interface.  This should however display the information yyou're
trying to observe.
