Example: Configuring a LAN-to-LAN PPTP VPN Connection
The branch office establishes a PPTP VPN tunnel with head office to connect two private networks
over the Internet. The routers are installed in the head office and branch offices accordingly.
Server side: Head Office
The above is the common setting for PPTP Server, set as you like for authentication and encryption.
The settings in Client side should be in accordance with settings in Server side.

Then the PPTP Account.
Client Side: Branch Office
The client user can set up a tunnel connecting to the PPTP server, and can also set the tunnel as the
default route for all outgoing traffic.
Note:
users can see the “Default Gateway” item in the bar, and user can check to select the tunnel as
the default gateway (default route) for traffic. If selected, all outgoing traffic will be forwarded to this
tunnel and routed to the next hop.
L2TP
The Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol 2TP) is a Layer2 tunneling protocol for implementing virtual private
networks.
L2TP does not provide confidentiality or strong authentication by itself. IPsec is often used to secure
L2TP packets by providing confidentiality, authentication and integrity. The combination of these two
protocols is generally known as L2TP/IPsec.
In L2TP section, both pure L2TP and L2TP/IPSec are supported. Users can choose your preferable
option for your own needs.
Note:
4 sessions for Client and only one for Server respectively.

i
L2TP over IPSec, Select “Default or IPSec Tunnel” only when there is IPSec for L2TP rule in place.
i
Pure L2TP, Select Default (there is no IPSec for L2TP in place) or other interface to activate the pure
L2TP.
