-== Introduction == 
-The Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) is a method for implementing virtual private networks. PPTP does not provide confidentiality or encryption; It relies on the protocol being tunneled to provide privacy. PPTP has been made obsolete by Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) and IPSec. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PPTP] 
-For an alternative, have a look at the [[OpenVPN]] article.

-== Security == 
-A PPTP implementation may not fulfill enterprise class security requirements [http://pptpclient.sourceforge.net/protocol-security.phtml] but for home-use or for implementations that do not rely on high encryption grades should be sufficient. One of the big advantages of using PPTP over OpenVPN with DD-WRT is that PPTP is supported out-of-the-box for 4Mb firmware images and up.
