Unified Services Router User Manual 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 Server A PPTP VPN can be established through this router. Once enabled a PPTP server is available on the router for LAN and WAN PPTP client users to access. Once the PPTP server is enabled, PPTP clients that are within the range of configured IP addresses of allowed clients can reach the router's PPTP server. Once authenticated by the PPTP server (the tunnel endpoint), PPTP clients have access to the network managed by the router. 86

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.

PPTP Tunnel Support
Setup > VPN Settings > PPTP > PPTP Server
A PPTP VPN can be established through this router. Once enabled a PPTP server is
available on the router for LAN and WAN PPTP client users to access. Once the
PPTP server is enabled, PPTP clients that are within the range of configured IP
addresses of allowed clients can reach the router’s PPTP server. Once authenticated
by the PPTP server (the tunnel endpoint), PPTP clients have access to the network
managed by the router.
