8.12.3 PPTP Encapsulation
Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) is a network protocol that enables secure transfer of
data from a remote client to a private server, creating a Virtual Private Network (VPN) using
TCP/IP-based networks.
PPTP supports on-demand, multi-protocol and virtual private networking over public
networks, such as the Internet. The screen shown next is for PPTP encapsulation.

DESCRIPTION
You can configure the WAN port's MAC address by either using the factory
assigned default MAC Address or cloning the MAC address of a computer on your
LAN. By default, the ZyWALL uses the factory assigned MAC Address to identify
itself on the WAN.
Otherwise, select this option and enter the IP address of the computer on the LAN
whose MAC you are cloning. Once it is successfully configured, the address will be
copied to the rom file (ZyNOS configuration file). It will not change unless you
change the setting or upload a different ROM file.
Enter the IP address of the computer on the LAN whose MAC you are cloning.
If you clone the MAC address of a computer on your LAN, it is recommended that
you clone the MAC address prior to hooking up the WAN port.
Click Apply to save your changes back to the ZyWALL.
