PPTP or L2TP protocols to pass through the router's firewall.
• PPTP Pass-through
to-Point Protocol (PPP) to be tunneled through an IP network. If you want to allow
PPTP tunnels to pass through the router, you can keep the default (Enabled).

"control/data" protocols such as FTP, TFTP, H323 etc.
• FTP ALG - To allow FTP clients and servers to transfer data across NAT, keep
the default Enable.
• TFTP ALG - To allow TFTP clients and servers to transfer data across NAT, keep
