PPTP VPN
Server
Path: VPN > PPTP VPN > Server
A PPTP VPN can be established through this switch. Once enabled a PPTP server is available on the switch for
LAN and Option PPTP client users to access. Once the PPTP server is enabled, PPTP clients that are within the
range of congured IP addresses of allowed clients can reach the controller’s PPTP server. Once authenticated
by the PPTP server (the tunnel endpoint), PPTP clients have access to the network managed by the controller.
The range of IP addresses allocated to PPTP clients can coincide with the LAN subnet. The PPTP server will default
to local PPTP user authentication, but can be congured to employ an external authentication server.
