+ string AuthErrorLimit
+
+ This value defines the amount of authentication errors
+ that are allowed before informing VPN agent to clear
+ the credentials in case there was a previous successful
+ VPN connection made within one hour. This is to be used
+ with providers that allow only one login from one
+ account at a time to prevent clearing of credentials
+ when networks are rapidly changed. This value is used
+ as an integer and if unset this default to "1" for all
+ except OpenVPN that uses value "10". Setting value "0"
+ disables the feature for the provider.

There can be other properties also but as the VPN
technologies are so different, they have different
kind of options that they need, so not all options
