To enable a firewall to allow PPTP traffic, you must provision the firewall to allow inbound and outbound TCP
packets specifically destined for port 1723. The source port may be dynamic, so often it is not useful to apply
a compare function upon this portion of the control/negotiation packets. You must also set the firewall to allow
inbound and outbound GRE packets, enabling transport of the tunnel payload.
From the Main Menu navigate to Display/Change IP Filter Set, and from the pop-up menu select Basic Firewall.
Select Display/Change Input Filter.
