PPTP Server
The
Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol
(PPTP) is a Layer2 tunneling protocol for implementing
virtual private networks through IP network.
In the Microsoft implementation, the tunneled PPP traffic can be authenticated with PAP, CHAP, and
Microsoft CHAP V1/V2 . The PPP payload is encrypted using Microsoft Point-to-Point Encryption
(MPPE) when using MSCHAPv1/v2.
NOTE:
4 sessions for Client and 4 sessions for Server respectively.
