8.7.3 PPTP Encapsulation

Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) is a network protocol that enables secure transfer of
data from a remote client to a private server, creating a Virtual Private Network (VPN) using
TCP/IP-based networks.
PPTP supports on-demand, multi-protocol and virtual private networking over public
networks, such as the Internet. The screen shown next is for PPTP encapsulation.

Multicast Version Choose None (default), IGMP-V1 or IGMP-V2. IGMP (Internet Group Multicast

Protocol) is a session-layer protocol used to establish membership in a Multicast

group – it is not used to carry user data. IGMP version 2 (RFC 2236) is an

improvement over version 1 (RFC 1112) but IGMP version 1 is still in wide use. If

you would like to read more detailed information about interoperability between

IGMP version 2 and version 1, please see sections 4 and 5 of RFC 2236.
