SnapGear 1.7.8 Manuel D’Utilisation

PPTP client setup 

The SnapGear PPTP client enables the SnapGear appliance to establish a VPN to a 
remote network running a PPTP server (usually a Microsoft Windows server). 

To set up a SnapGear PPTP VPN Client, select PPTP VPN Client from the VPN menu 
and create a new VPN connection by entering: 

•  A descriptive name for the VPN connection. This may describe the purpose for 

the connection. 

•  The remote PPTP server IP address to connect to. 

•  A username and password to use when logging in to the remote VPN. You may 

need to obtain this information from the system administrator of the remote PPTP 
server and,  

•  Optionally, the remote network’s netmask. This is used to determine which 

packets should go the remote network. 

•  Click Add.
