PPTP server support

Hello,

Does FortiOS support PPTP server functionality. I know that it supports PPTP passthrough, but customer requirements demand PPTP server.

Thanks

Andreas

LOL who in their right mind demands PPTP server and WHY ?

 

PPTP = no security whatsoever as it uses MS-CHAPv2 and using any other auth mechanism is not supported by tha majority of PPTP clients out there.

 

macOS 10.12 has completly removed support for it and every security expert argues against it for obvious reasons.

Public sector bid. Obviously locked in a certain vendor...
