Unified Services Router User Manual 6.3 Configuring VPN clients Remote VPN clients must be configured with the same VPN policy parameters used in the VPN tunnel that the client wishes to use: encryption, authentication, life time, and PFS key-group. Upon establishing these authentication parameters, the VPN Client user database must also be populated with an account to give a user access to the tunnel. VPN client software is required to establish a VPN tunnel between the router and remote endpoint. Open source software (such as OpenVPN or Openswan) as well as Microsoft IPsec VPN software can be configured with the required IKE policy parameters to establish an IPsec VPN tunnel. Refer to the client software guide for detailed instructions on setup as well as the router's online help. The user database contains the list of VPN user accounts that are authorized to use a given VPN tunnel. Alternatively VPN tunnel users can be authenticated using a configured Radius database. Refer to the online help to determine how to populate the user database and/or configure RADIUS authentication. 6.4 PPTP / L2TP Tunnels This router supports VPN tunnels from either PPTP or L2TP ISP servers. The router acts as a broker device to allow the ISP's server to create a TCP control connection between the LAN VPN client and the VPN server. 6.4.1 PPTP Tunnel Support Setup > VPN Settings > PPTP > PPTP Client PPTP VPN Client can be configured on this router. Using this client we can access remote network which is local to PPTP server. Once client is enabled, the user can access Status > Active VPNs page and establish PPTP VPN tunnel clicking Connect.
