PPTP Settings
For most companies, the PPTP server creates a secure connection that a
remote user can access a host within the company. The remote user has to
run a PPTP client and connect to the PPTP server. The PPTP server has to
validate the remote user as being in the User List in section 9.1. The server
certifies the PPTP client with a username and password. After passing the
certification, the server will assign a private IP address to the client. The
remote user will be treated like a member of the LAN and can access the
local hosts inside the company. Please refer to Appendix A for more details
about configuring a PPTP VPN connection. To run the PPTP server on the
company side, please follow the steps below:
1. In PPTP Settings page: Select the Enable button in PPTP Server field.
(Figure 6.1)
2. Enter the private IP address of the server in Server IP Address field.
3. Enter the Client IP Range. The server will assign the IP to each client
within the range.
4. Click the apply button.
