The manipulation radio buttons selection on this page allows you
to choose whether the new connection will be a client or a server.
For the
Client
radio button selection, no further details need to be
provided. For the
Server
radio button selection, the following
information needs to be provided:
For PPTP connection, the
PPTP Server
text field requires an IP
address or a host name of the PPTP server. For L2TP connection,
the
L2TP Server
text fields require an IP address of the L2TP
server.
The
Authentication
manipulation radio buttons are only present
if the
Connection Type
selected on the previous page is PPTP.
They are used to select the corresponding authentication protocol
by which the client communicates with the server. The
MSCHAPv2
selection enables the
Encryption
drop down list where the
encryption method can be selected.

The
Start
functional button initiates the selected connection(s). If it is a client connection, then this button initiates a client activity of reaching the server.
The
Start
option is applicable for multiple connections selected at the same time.
The
Stop
functional button is used to stop the selected connection(s). Stopping the server connection will disconnect all connected clients and close the
PPTP/L2TP tunnel. The
Stop
option is applicable for multiple connections selected at the same time.
PPTP Server Configurations
The
PPTP Server Configuration
page is used to configure the
PPTP server settings and offers the following components:
The
PPTP Subnet
text fields are used to enter the IP address
range for the PPTP server and clients within the PPTP tunnel. The
value specified for the subnet mask is fixed to 24 to restrict the
possible number of clients for the PPTP connection.
Please Note:
The first address specified in the PPTP Subnet will be
assigned to the PPTP server; others will be assigned to the clients.
The PPTP server subnet should be different from the L2TP server
subnet, otherwise a corresponding error message will appear.
The
Authentication
manipulation
radio buttons are used to select
the corresponding authentication protocol by which the client
communicates with the server. The
MSCHAPv2
selection enables
Encryption
drop down list where the encryption method can be
selected.
