Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP)
Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) can be used to join
different physical networks using the Internet as an intermediary.
Using the above screen allows client PCs to establish a normal
PPTP session and provides hassle-free configuration of the
PPTP client on each client PC.
Enter the assigned IP address, subnet mask and default gateway
IP address (usually supplied by your ISP), and then the PPTP
User ID, Password and PPPTP Gateway IP address.
Enter a maximum Idle Time Out (in minutes) to define a
maximum period of time for which the PPTP connection is
maintained during inactivity. If the connection is inactive for
longer than the Maximum Idle Time, it will be dropped. (Default:
10 minutes)
