Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) is a network protocol that enables transfers of data 
from a remote client to a private server, creating a Virtual Private Network (VPN) using TCP/
IP-based networks.

PPTP supports on-demand, multi-protocol, and virtual private networking over public 
networks, such as the Internet.

Note: The ZyWALL supports one PPTP server connection at any given time.
