PPTP

The PPTP protocol is typically used for VPN connection. Use the necessary

 

information from your ISP to complete the PPTP configuration:

 

IP Address: Enter the IP address of the WAN port that can be accessible

 

from the Internet.

 

Subnet Mask: Enter the subnet mask.

 

Gateway: Enter the IP address of default gateway.

 

User Name: Enter the username that is required to log into the PPTP

 

server.

 

Password: Enter the password that is required to log into the PPTP

 

server.

 

PPTP Server IP Address: Enter the IP address of the PPTP server.

 

MPPE Encryption: Microsoft Point-to-Point Encryption (MPPE) encrypts

 

data in PPP-based dial-up connections or PPTP VPN connections. Check

 

this box to enable the MPPE encryption to provide data security for the

 

PPTP connection that is between the VPN client and the VPN server.

 

Connect Idle Time: Choose this option to let the security appliance

 

disconnect from the Internet after a specified period of inactivity (Idle

 

Time). This choice is recommended if your ISP fees are based on the time

 

that you spend online.

 

Keep alive: Choose this option to keep the connection always on,

 

regardless of the level of activity. This choice is recommended if you pay

 

a flat fee for your Internet service.

 

MTU: Choose Auto to use the default MTU size, or choose Manual if you

 

want to specify another size.

 

MTU Value: If you choose Manual, enter the custom MTU size in bytes.
