If you do not configure a DNS server, you must know the IP address of a machine in order to access it.2.1.4 Internet Access: PPTP Note: Enter the Internet access information exactly as given to you by your ISP.Figure 26 Internet Access: PPTP Encapsulation 2.1.4.1 ISP Parameters •Authentication Type - Select an authentication protocol for outgoing calls.
