Hello redfsi,

It looks like IOS will only terminate PPTP. It cannot serve as a client or intiate PPTP tunnels. PPTP is a Microsoft protocol and can only be controlled by the Microsoft client.

Hope this helps! If so, please rate.

Thanks,

Hi Hemendoz,

Thank you for information.

So, i'm going to switch to PPPoE

Hi,

Shifting from PPTP to PPPoE, I do not see quite a relevant thing. I guess you would like to shift to L2TP which is jointly created by MS and Cisco Systems.

Also the best would be to shift to IPSec
