Select the Enable check box to enable the PPTP Server
Select the Minimum Authentication Required. Access is denied to remote users attempting to
connect using an authentication scheme weaker than the selected scheme. The schemes are
described below, from strongest to weakest.
• Encrypted Authentication (MS-CHAP v2): The strongest type of authentication to use; this
is the recommended option
• Weakly Encrypted Authentication (CHAP): This is the weakest type of encrypted password
authentication to use. It is not recommended that clients connect using this as it provides very
little password protection. Also note that clients connecting using CHAP are unable to encrypt
traffic
• Unencrypted Authentication (PAP): This is plain text password authentication. When using
this type of authentication, the client password is transmitted unencrypted.
• None
Select the Required Encryption Level. Access is denied to remote users attempting to connect
not using this encryption level. Strong 40 bit or 128 bit encryption is recommended
