PPTP example
To enable a firewall to allow PPTP traffic, you must provision the firewall to allow inbound and outbound TCP
packets specifically destined for por t 1723. The source por t may be dynamic, so often it is not useful to apply
a compare function upon this por tion of the control/negotiation packets. You must also set the firewall to allow
inbound and outbound GRE packets, enabling transpor t of the tunnel payload.
From the Main Menu navigate to Display/Change IP Filter Set, and from the pop-up menu select Basic Firewall.
Select Display/Change Input Filter.
