To configure authentication for a PPTP VPN - CLI
config vpn pptp
set eip <starting_ip>
set sip <ending_ip>
set status enable
set usrgrp <user_group_name>
end
You also need to define a firewall policy that permits packets to pass from VPN
clients with addresses in the specified range to IP addresses that the VPN clients
need to access on the private network behind the FortiGate unit. The Action for
this firewall policy is ACCEPT, not ENCRYPT, because the allowed user group is
defined in the PPTP VPN configuration, not in the firewall policy.
For detailed information about configuring PPTP, see the
User
Guide.

Configuring authentication of remote IPSec VPN users

An IPSec VPN on a FortiGate unit can authenticate remote users through a dialup
group. The user account name is the peer ID and the password is the pre-shared
key. For information about authentication using peer IDs and peer groups, see the
FortiGate IPSec VPN User
Authentication through user groups is supported for groups containing only local
users. To authenticate users using a RADIUS or LDAP server, you must configure
XAUTH settings. See
