Server
Some applications require a PPPoE server on the router, which can be
configured here. The PPPoE server is disabled by default.

The router can also be configured as VPN server or VPN client.
PPTP
When defining the PPTP server’s IP range, avoid overlap with the range
of IP addresses handed out by DHCP if DHCP is enabled. The IP range is
defined using the following syntax:
xxx.xxx.xxx.<start-ip>-<end-ip>
for example
192.168.1.20-30
Enter client login data follows:
<username> * <password> *
for example
testuser * test *
The encryption options can be set as follows
PPTP server type

OpenVPN
OpenVPN is a powerful and flexible VPN solution. OpenVPN security is
based on certificates that cannot created on the router itself. Please
refer to OpenVPN’s online documentation for instructions on creating
certificates and configuring OpenVPN.
2.3.3.5. USB
The router’s USB port can be used for several purposes. Here the basic
and advanced USB parameters are defined. Besides enabling USB and
defining the USB hardware standard to use you can also define if
printer and storage support for USB shall be enabled.
2.3.3.6. NAS
If USB hard drive support is enabled, you can start the integrated
ProFTPd server to share data on an attached hard disk via FTP.
