Application Scenario

Taking an example for TL-ER6120 v2 to explain how to establish PPTP server by VPN router using the new GUI. The connection topology is as follows:

Now we configure TL-ER6120 v2 as PPTP server.

Configuration Steps

Step1:

Connect TL-ER6120 v2 as topology to make it access Internet successfully. Record its WAN1 port IP address 153.91.2.145, which would be filled in VPN client. The LAN ports subnet is 192.168.0.1/24.

Step2:

This step we create VPN IP address pool. When VPN client is connected to PPTP server, server will assign a virtual IP address to client. This IP address comes from VPN IP address pool. Go to Preferences-->VPN IP Pool, Click Add.

On the popup page we name IP Pool Name as PPTP, configure Starting IP Address as 192.168.0.220, Ending IP Address as 192.168.0.250. Then click OK. So that VPN address pool is 192.168.0.220-192.168.0.250, which is in the same subnet with LAN ports subnet.

Note:

VPN IP address pool can be in the same subnet with LAN IP, and also can be different. When it is different from LAN IP subnet, we need to configure Multi-Nets NAT if VPN client want to take VPN Server as a proxy gateway. See more on How to access the internet by using VPN Server as a proxy gateway?.

Step3:

This step we enable PPTP. Go to VPN-->PPTP-->PPTP Server, click Add. On the popup page, choose WAN port as WAN1. Specify MPPE Encryption as Encrypted. Then click OK.

Step4:

This step we create account name and password for PPTP VPN client. Go to VPN--->Users, click Add. Also there will be a popup page for us to set. Here we specify Account Name as tplink, Password as tplink. Select Protocol as PPTP. Configure Local IP Address as 192.168.0.100 (Local IP Address is local VPN virtual network IP address. It’s suggested that we configure it in the same subnet with Lan IP). On the below options, we specify IP Address Pool as PPTP we created above, DNS Address as 8.8.8.8, Network Mode as Client-to-LAN, Max Connections as 5. Then click OK.

Till now, we have finished configuring PPTP Server in the router.
