Client-Server VPN (Client Mode)

Configuration > Security Setting >VPN-PPTP Client
Your router can be configured as a PPTP VPN client to connect to a PPTP VPN server
allowing your LAN IP network access to through the VPN tunnel. This method should
only be used when experiencing compatibility or connectivity issues with establishing an
IPsec Site-to-Site VPN.
Note: For connecting LAN network through a VPN over the Internet, it is strongly
recommended to use an IPsec Site-to-Site VPN.
To configure a PPTP Client-Server VPN tunnel between two VPN routers:
• Ensure that your router is connected to the Internet and computers and
devices are able to access the Internet through your router and make note of
the WAN (Internet) IP assigned to both routers under the Status page. See page
73 for checking the status page.
Example:
VPN Router A WAN (Internet) IP Address:
VPN Router B WAN (Internet) IP Address:
•
Make sure the LAN IP network on each VPN router is different.
Note: Changing the LAN IP address of your router will change the LAN IP
network of your router. See page 53 for changing the LAN IP address.
Example:
VPN Router A LAN IP Settings: 192.168.10.1 / 255.255.255.0
VPN Router B LAN IP Settings: 192.168.100.1 / 255.255.255.0
