Configure the Destination Networks attributes according to the following table.
User ID Allows you to specify the User ID that this end of the tunnel sends to the far end of the tunnel
for authentication during tunnel establishment.
If you are using another Business Communications Manager on the far side of the tunnel, this
User ID needs to match the tunnel name or interface name specified on the far side of the
tunnel. If you are not using another Business Communications Manager on the far side, then
this User ID must satisfy the authentication and other criteria for that device.
Password Allows you to specify the password used to authenticate with the far side of the tunnel. If PAP
is being used, this value is treated as simple password. If CHAP or MS-CHAP is used, this
value is used as the CHAP secret and the actual password is not passed over the link. Not
sending the actual password provides extra security.
This value must match the Incoming Password value specified for the tunnel on the far end.
Note : The password you choose must conform to the password policy used for your Business
Communications Manager system. For more information about the password policy, refer to
“Setting password policy” on page 134 .
Table 224 PPTP Destination Networks attributes
Attribute Description
Entry (N#) Displays the Destination Network identifier.
This is a read only attribute.
Destination Network Allows you to enter the IP address of the network or hosts that can be reached through this
PPTP tunnel. These IP addresses correspond to the private LAN addresses in the remote
sites connected by this tunnel.
When this Business Communications Manager receives a data packet from the networks
behind it with destination address in these destination networks, Business Communications
Manager routes those packets through this tunnel. If this tunnel is not active, it is automatically
brought up.
Note that Destination Networks are not necessary for persistent connections.
Enter the IP Address of the destination network in the remote site in dotted notation.
