7.4.3 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.

DESCRIPTION
Select From ISP if your ISP dynamically assigns DNS server information (and the
NBG-417N's WAN IP address). The field to the right displays the (read-only) DNS
server IP address that the ISP assigns.
Select User-Defined if you have the IP address of a DNS server. Enter the DNS
server's IP address in the field to the right. If you chose User-Defined, but leave
the IP address set to 0.0.0.0, User-Defined changes to None after you click
Apply. If you set a second choice to User-Defined, and enter the same IP
address, the second User-Defined changes to None after you click Apply.
Select None if you do not want to configure DNS servers. If you do not configure
a DNS server, you must know the IP address of a computer in order to access it.
The MAC address section allows users to configure the WAN port's MAC address
by using the NBG-417N's MAC address, copying the MAC address from a
computer on your LAN or manually entering a MAC address.
Select Factory default to use the factory assigned default MAC Address.
Select Clone the computer's MAC address - IP Address 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. It will not
change unless you change the setting or upload a different ROM file.
Select this option and enter the MAC address you want to use.
Click Apply to save your changes back to the NBG-417N.
Click Reset to begin configuring this screen afresh.
