Static IP and dynamic DNS monitor
The list of tunnels provides information about VPN connections to remote peers that
have static IP addresses or domain names. You can use this list to view status and IP
addressing information for each tunnel configuration. You can also start and stop
individual tunnels from the list.

PPTP
FortiGate units support PPTP to tunnel PPP traffic between two VPN peers. Windows
or Linux PPTP clients can establish a PPTP tunnel with a FortiGate unit that has been
configured to act as a PPTP server. As an alternative, you can configure the FortiGate
unit to forward PPTP packets to a PPTP server on the network behind the FortiGate
unit.
For information about how to perform these tasks, see
“PPTP configuration
procedures” on page 285
.

VPN > PPTP > PPTP Range

unit. A network range may be displayed if the source address in the firewall
encryption policy was expressed as a range of IP addresses.
