and allows you to create a new PPTP or L2TP connection.
The PPTP/L2TP Connection Wizard – Page 1 consists of the
following components:

name. The name of the connection cannot start with a digit
symbol, however it can contain digits further in the name.
Connection Type

connection (PPTP or L2TP).

The PPTP/L2TP Connection Wizard – Page 2 consists of the
following components:
The Peer Name text field requires the connection peer name. If
you are about to create a client connection, then the server’s
name should be defined here. If you are creating a server
connection, then the client’s name should be defined here.
Please Note: When creating a connection with a Windows
Server, ensure that a user with the Quadro’s host name and
Dial-in access exists on the server. When creating a connection
with a Windows Client, ensure that the Peer name specified on
this page matches the Dial-in connection’s username.
Please Note: The input in the Peer Name field should only be in
Latin characters, otherwise an error occurs and no connection
can be created.
The Password text field requires the password
for the
connection establishment.
Please Note: These authentication settings should be
identically configured on both peers for the successful
connection establishment.

The manipulation radio buttons selection on this page allows
you to choose whether the new connection will be a client or a
server. For the Client radio button selection, no further details
need to be provided. For the Server radio button selection, the
following information needs to be provided:
For PPTP connection, the PPTP Server text field requires an IP
address or a host name of the PPTP server. For L2TP
connection, the L2TP Server text fields require an IP address of
the L2TP server.
The Authentication manipulation radio buttons are only present
if the Connection Type selected on the previous page is PPTP.
They are used to select the corresponding authentication
protocol by which the client communicates with the server. The
MSCHAPv2 selection enables the Encryption drop down list
where the encryption method can be selected.

The Stop functional button is used to stop the selected connection(s). Stopping the server connection will disconnect all connected clients and close
the PPTP/L2TP tunnel. The Stop option is applicable for multiple connections selected at the same time.
