pptp ifadd dest = <string>
[rate = <number{10-10000}>]
[encaps = <{vcmux | nlpid}>]
[ac = <{never | always | keep}>]
dest The WAN destination for this PPTP tunnel.
Typically a phonebook entry.
REQUIRED
rate A number between 10 and 10000.
Represents the transmission speed (in bits/s) for the WAN link.
OPTIONAL
encaps The type of WAN encapsulation to be used with this PPTP profile.
Choose between:
>VC_MUX
>Network Layer Protocol IDentifiers (NLPID).
The default is vcmux.
OPTIONAL
ac The High-level Data Link Control(HDLC) framing option applicable
to PPTP interfaces using this PPTP profile.
Choose between:
>always: Before relaying the encapsulated PPP frames over the
PPPoA link, make sure that the address and control field
(0xFF03) is always in front of the frames.
>never: Before relaying the encapsulated PPP frames over the
PPPoA link, make sure the address and control field will never
be found in front of the frames.
>keep: Do not change the frames arriving via the PPTP tunnel.
The default is never.
Note The default setting is compliant to RFC2364, therefore it is
recommended to keep this setting.
