5.5. PPTP
PPTP allows the secure connection over the Internet by simply dialing in a local point
provided by your ISP provider. The following screen allows client PCs to establish a normal
PPTP session and provides hassle-free configuration of the PPTP client on each client PC.
Host Name: This is optional.
MAC address: The default value is set to the WAN’s physical interface of the broadband
router.
Login / Password: Enter the PPTP username and password assigned by your ISP
provider.
Service Name: This is normally optional.
Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU): This is the maximum size of the packets.
Type: Enable the Auto-reconnect option to automatically re-establish the connection when
an application attempts to access the Internet again.
Idle Timeout: This is a maximum period of time for which the Internet connection is
maintained during inactivity. If the connection is inactive for longer than the
Maximum Idle Time, it will be dropped.
Note: you can leave the Host Name, MTU, Type and idle Timeout settings as default if you do
not know what to choose.
