Configuring the Barricade Router

Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP)

Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) can be used to join different physical networks using the Internet as an intermediary. Using the above screen allows client PCs to establish a normal PPTP session and provides hassle-free configuration of the PPTP client on each client PC.

Enter the assigned IP address, subnet mask and default gateway IP address (usually supplied by your ISP), and then the PPTP User ID, Password and PPPTP Gateway IP address.

Enter a maximum Idle Time Out (in minutes) to define a maximum period of time for which the PPTP connection is maintained during inactivity. If the connection is inactive for longer than the Maximum Idle Time, it will be dropped. (Default: 10 minutes)
