Use the following guidelines:
• Message area - Displays messages as dialing progresses and the connection is 
established. If this is an interactive login connection, type appropriate responses to 
messages if you are prompted (ask your network administrator for the dialed server 
password and other dialog requirements).
• Data area - Displays data and statistics about the connection.
• Refresh - Updates the statistics display of the connection.
• Reset - Cancels dialing and resets the connection statistics area to 0.
• Disconnect - Disconnects the connection.
Configuring PPTP VPN Access
PPTP (Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol) is a network protocol that enables the secure 
transfer of data between a remote client (in this case a thin client) and an enterprise server 
environment by creating a virtual private network (VPN) across TCP/IP-based data 
networks such as the Internet. It provides a password-protected path through the 
enterprise firewall to the enterprise server environment in which the network and session 
services required by thin clients reside.
The PPTP Manager dialog box is used to initiate a connection to a virtual private network 
(VPN) PPTP server through any of several access services (for example, dial-up, cable, or 
DSL). Connection parameters are entered using the PPTP Property dialog box.
Note
Modem access to an Internet Service Provider (ISP) server must be 
established before attempting to use this dialog box.
Selecting PPTP Manager in the Desktop menu opens the Dialup Manager dialog box. The 
PPTP Manager dialog box can also be set to open automatically on thin client start as 
described in "Configuring Network Settings."

Use the following guidelines:
• Description/Protocol area - Lists a description and protocol of each PPTP property 
entry created using the PPTP Property dialog box.
• Connect - Initiates a PPTP connection for a currently-selected list entry. After initiation, 
a PPTP Status dialog box opens (if Show progress in detail is selected in the PPTP 
Property dialog box and a path to an enterprise PPTP VPN server is available) 
displaying messages and allowing you to refresh or disconnect the connection. A 
PPTP connection is also initiated automatically on system start-up if this feature is 
selected in the PPTP Property dialog box.
