PPTP
You can set up VPN connections between FortiGate units and remote Windows
clients using Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP).
Setting up a PPTP-based VPN
Using PPTP, you can create a virtual private network (VPN) between a remote client
PC running Windows and your internal network behind a FortiGate unit. Because it is
a Windows standard, PPTP does not require third-party software on the client
computer. If your Internet Service Provider (ISP) supports PPTP connections through
its network, you can create a secure connection by making simple configuration
changes to the client computer and the FortiGate unit.
To create a PPTP VPN configuration
1
Add a user group to the FortiGate unit.
The PPTP clients must be authenticated before being allowed to start a VPN tunnel.
To enable authentication, you must add a user group to the FortiGate unit. Within the
user group, add a user name for each PPTP client. You can add users to the FortiGate
user database, to authentication servers (RADIUS or LDAP), or to both. See
“Users
and authentication” on page 233
.
2
Enable PPTP and specify a PPTP address range. See
“Enabling PPTP and specifying
a PPTP range” on page 260
.
3
Add a source address range for the firewall policy. The source address range must
match the range of PPTP addresses. See
“To add an address” on page 200
.
Name
The name of the tunnel.
Remote gateway
The IP address and UDP port of the remote gateway. For dynamic DNS
tunnels, the IP address is updated dynamically.
Timeout
The time before the next key exchange. The time is calculated by
subtracting the time elapsed since the last key exchange from the keylife.
Proxy ID Source
The IP address range that VPN users of this tunnel can connect to.
Proxy ID
Destination
The IP address range from which VPN users of this tunnel can connect.
