PPTP Support
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 a TCP/IP-based network.
PPTP supports on-demand, multi-protocol and virtual private networking over public networks, such as the
Internet.
IP Alias
IP alias allows you to partition a physical network into logical networks over the same Ethernet interface.
Call Scheduling
