Define the available IP address pool for the tunnel ends of the PPTP
clients in the fields "IP address pool". This pool must be in the network of
the LAN. The PPTP clients address their destination directly with IP
addresses in the LAN of the EBW-E100.
In order to add a new user, that is permitted for the connection of PPTP
clients, enter a user name and a password into the respective fields for
this. Click on "OK" to take over the user. You can delete existing users by
checking the checkbox in the column "delete" of the respective user and

Setting Up a PPTP Client
The settings for the PPTP client are configured here. All packets through the PPTP
tunnel are masked by the EBW-E100 with its tunnel address.
Configuration via web interface (menu "LAN (ext)", page "PPTP client")
In order to use the EBW-E100 as PPTP client, check the checkbox
"Activate PPTP client".
In order to display the messages of the last connection, select the link
"Display log of last connection".
In order to define the IP address or the domain name of the remote
terminal, to which the VPN connection is to be established, enter an IP
address or a domain name in the field "IP address or domain name of
remote site".
Enter the user name and the password of the PPTP client for login to the
server into the respective fields.
In order to select the encryption for the PPTP connection, select this
from the drop-down list "Encryption". The encryption that is also used by
the PPTP server must be selected.
In order to set the default route to this PPTP tunnel, check the checkbox
"Set default route". The complete data traffic will be routed through the
tunnel then. However, this is only possible, if no preferential default route
has been set before.
If no default route to the tunnel is set, the local subnet behind the tunnel
must be defined. Enter this network with respective netmask into the
field "Remote subnet". Only that way, packets into the network behind
the PPTP tunnel will be routed through the tunnel.
In order to adjust the MTU (maximum permissible number of bytes in a
packet to be transmitted), change the entry in the entry respective field.
In order to adjust the MRU (maximum permissible number of bytes in a
packet to be received), change the entry in the respective field.
