Question or Symptom

I need to set up a "standard" (PPTP) Microsoft VPN server. Can I do this with NAT turned on? What do I need to forward?

Resolution

You need to allow GRE protocol (47), and tcp port 1723. The following commands will set this up for a FlowPoint of Efficient router:

     system addserver <PPTP server IP address> tcp 1723
     system addserver <PPTP server IP address> 47 0
