authentication and limits of the generated enterprise wsdl

 I am considering using the generated enterprise wsdl for ETL operations from an external system into SFDC. I have a few questions concerning the wsdl:

1) There doesn't seem to be any authentication in the wsdl. Is this the case or did I miss something?

2) Are there any governor limits on wsdl use?

1. the WSDL defines both a login method, and a SessionHeader soap header that is used in subsequent calls.

 

2. there is nothing specific to the WSDL, the API calls that are generated from the WSDL have total & concurrent limits as detailed in the web services API docs.
