DESCRIPTION
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 device
supports only one PPTP server connection at any given time. To
configure a PPTP client, you must configure the User Name and
Password fields for a PPP connection and the PPTP parameters for a
PPTP connection.
