Encapsulation

Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) is a network protocol that enables secure

 

 

transfer of data from a remote client to a private server, creating a Virtual Private

 

 

Network (VPN) using TCP/IP-based networks. PPTP supports on-demand, multi-

 

 

protocol, and virtual private networking over public networks, such as the Internet.

 

 

The ZyWALL supports only one PPTP server connection at any given time. To

 

 

configure a PPTP client, you must configure the User Name and Password fields

 

 

for a PPP connection and the PPTP parameters for a PPTP connection.
