You can specify that this router will Initiate Connections (acting as a PAC) or only answer them (acting as a PNS).
■Tunnels are normally initiated On Demand; however, you can disable this feature. When disabled, the tunnel must be manually established via the call management screens or may be scheduled using the scheduled connections feature.
■Some networks that use Microsoft Windows NT PPTP Network Servers require additional authentication information, called Windows NT Domain Name, when answering PPTP tunnel connection requests. Not all Windows NT installations require this information, since not all such installations use this authentication feature. The Optional Windows NT Domain Name is not the same as the Internet domain name, but is the name of a group of servers that share common security policy and user account databases. Your PPTP tunnel partner’s administrator will supply this Windows NT Domain Name if it is required.
■You can specify the Idle Timeout, an inactivity timer, whose expiration will terminate the tunnel. A value of zero disables the timer. Because tunnels are subject to abrupt termination when the underlying datalink is torn down, use of the Idle Timeout is strongly encouraged.
