Overview

Microsoft VPN uses the Microsoft VPN Adapter which is provided in recent versions of Windows. This

feature can be used to provide remote access to your LAN by individual PCs. This method provides an

alternative to using IPSec VPN, which is described in the previous chapter. Using Microsoft VPN provides

easier setup than using IPSec VPN.

The following Microsoft VPN configuration screens are provided:

• Server

• Clients

• Status

7.1 PPTP Server

The IP-2000VPN incorporates a PPTP (Peer-to-Peer Tunneling Protocol) server which is compatible with the

"VPN Adapter" provided with recent versions of Microsoft Windows. Remote Windows clients are able to

connect to this Server. Once connected, they can access the LAN as if they connected locally.

The Server setup screen is accessed by selecting the Server option on the Microsoft VPN menu.
