PPTP Client on securepoint firewall to share connection

[ajl119]

Hello, one application that would be really great would be a PPTP client on the securepoint firewall.

For example; instead of client PC's on the internal network using manually setup PPTP Client VPN connections, how about if securepoint had a PPTP client.

Client PC on internal network tries to connect to a remote network, securepoint sees the attempt to connect to a network, securepoint connects to the PPTP VPN and hence can share the PPTP connection to the internal network.

After a timeout of inactivity, the securepoint disconnects the VPN.

Hallo, ein Programm, das wäre wirklich toll wäre ein PPTP Client auf dem securepoint Firewall.

Zum Beispiel, statt des Client-PC's im internen Netzwerk mit manuell Setup PPTP Client VPN-Verbindungen, wie etwa, wenn securepoint hatte einen PPTP Client.

Client-PC auf interne Netzwerk versucht, eine Verbindung zu einem Remote-Netzwerk, securepoint ist der Versuch, eine Verbindung zu einem Netzwerk, securepoint Verbindung mit dem PPTP-VPN-und damit kann die PPTP-Verbindung mit dem internen Netzwerk.

Nach einem Timeout der Inaktivität, die die VPN-securepoint trennt.

hello,

thanks for your respond. we dont plan to implement a vpn client in the
firewall. thats because the vpn protocol is very old and not really secure.
the pptp vpn server on the firewall is still available because of historical
reasons.

I agree in that PPTP is old and not very secure and so i do not blame you for not wanting to implement the client!
cheers,
