L2TP / PPTP Connections
Find out how to integrate LT2P / PPTP connections within
VPN Tracker.
OS X has a built-in VPN client, that can connect to L2TP and PPTP VPN gate-
ways. VPN Tracker automatically integrates those connections, so you can eas-
ily use all your VPN connections from one place.
To create new L2TP / PPTP VPN connections:
You can add new connections in System Preferences. Go to the “Network”
pane and click the ‘+’ icon. Select “VPN” as your interface type and choose the
appropriate VPN protocol for your connection.
Then, enter your VPN connection settings. For further information, please click
the question mark icon to open the Mac OS X Help documentation.
Working with L2TP / PPTP VPN Connections in VPN Tracker
Any VPN connections you have set up in System Preferences will automatically
show up in a separate group within VPN Tracker’s connection list. Just click the
slider to connect or disconnect your L2TP or PPTP connection.
Mac OS X L2TP/PPTP VPN connections are always associated
with a specific network location. VPN Tracker therefore only
shows those VPN connections that belong to the current net-
work location (System Preferences > Network > Location).
