As soon as the internet access over PPTP is selected the LANCOM enquires all needed PPTP parameters with the Internet Access Wizard. Additionally to the entries for PPPoE access the IP address of the gateway must be specified. A PPTP gateway is often a DSL modem. Detailed information is available from your DSL provider.
The configuration can be changed in the PPTP list:
LANconfig: communication / protocols / PPTP list
WEBconfig: LCOS menu tree / Setup / WAN / PPTP list
The PPTP configuration consists of three parameters:
- 'Remote site'—the entry from the DSL-Broadband-Peers list.
- 'IP address'—IP address of the PPTP gateway, often the address of the DSL modem.
- 'Port'—IP port the PPTP protocol runs on. For conformity with the protocol standard enter the port '1.723'.
