PPTP
The Point to Point Tunneling Protocol is used to transfer information
securely between VPNs (Virtual Private Routers). Encryption methods
are employed in the transfer of information between you and your ISP
using a key encryption. This option is specific for European users where
ISPs support the PPTP protocol for the uplink connection. To connect to
your ISP’s server using this protocol, the information in this window
must be provided to you by your ISP and then properly implemented.
There are two ways to enable the router to become a PPTP client, one
is through assigning the router an IP address dynamically, which means
that the DHCP protocol will be implemented by the Router to
automatically configure the IP settings. The user may input the IP
settings manually by choosing the Static IP option above the configuring
area. To configure the router to be a PPTP client, complete the entry
fields and click the Save Settings button.
See table below for parameter description.
