3.6.3.5.1 VPN - PPTP
The router supports PPTP VPN to establish secure, end-to-end private network connections
over a public networking infrastructure. There are two kinds of PPTP VPN connections, one
is remote access (dial-in & dial-out), and the other is LAN-to-LAN access.
Deploying a remote access VPN enables users to reduce the cost by leveraging the local
dial-up infrastructures of the ISP, in addition, transmitting data over a secure VPN tunnel.
LAN-to-LAN PPTP VPN is an alternative WAN infrastructure that is used to connect offices
and home offices to share network resources with each other over a secure VPN tunnel.
There are two types of PPTP VPN supported, Remote Access and LAN-to-LAN (please refer
below for more information.). Click Create to configure a new VPN connection.
