Click to begin the Quick Start configuration. This option allows you to
configure interfaces, set up PPTP tunnels for up to three users, and establish
a connection to the Switch. If you prepare for the configuration (refer to
“
Preparing for Configuration” on page 4-2), the Quick Start can take as
little as 15 minutes to complete.

Configuration can to take 2 to 3 hours to complete, depending on how extensive
your configuration will be.
