Enable Pptp On The Edge - Watchguard Firebox X15 User Manual

Enable PPTP on the Edge

1. To connect to the System Status page, type
interface in the browser address bar.
The default URL is https://192.168.111.1
2. From the navigation bar, select VPN > Mobile VPN.
The Mobile User page appears.
3. To enable PPTP, select the Activate remote user VPN with Mobile VPN with PPTP check box.
4. Select the Enable drop from 128-bit to 40-bit check box to allow the tunnels to drop from 128-bit to
40-bit encryption for connections that are less reliable.
The Firebox X Edge always tries to use 128-bit encryption first. It uses 40-bit encryption if the client
cannot use the 128-bit encrypted connection. Usually, only customers outside the United States use
this check box.
5. Select the Log all allowed PPTP traffic to have the Edge record a log message for all PPTP traffic.
6. When a PPTP user connects to the Edge, the Edge must assign that user's computer an available IP
address from the network the user wants to connect to. Type the first IP address in the address pool
the Edge can use to assign PPTP user IP addresses in the Start of IP address pool field. The Edge gives
out this IP address to the first PPTP user that connects. The Edge increments the IP address by 1 and
assigns an address to each subsequent PPTP user that connects (up to 10 users).
The IP address that you set as the start of the IP address pool must be the first of ten sequential IP
addresses available and identified on your Edge as part of the trusted or optional network.
