Administrator's Guide

The connection to the ISP must be established first, before contacting

the enterprise PPTP VPN server. This includes dial-up access as well

as direct access through the cable modem and DSL modem paths.

Virtual Private Network (L2TP)

Connection

Layer Two Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) merges Microsoft's PPTP

protocol with Cisco's Layer Two Forwarding (L2F) protocol. L2TP is

basically the same as PPTP; the primary difference is that L2TP

supports encryption.

This is a connection from the thin client Ethernet port directly to the

enterprise intranet. No additional hardware is required.

In this configuration all network services may be used, including the

enterprise DHCP server. A DHCP server on the network may provide

not only the terminal's IP address, but also the location of the file

server containing the software updates.

The Port Lock dialog box allows you to enable or disable COM 1 and

LPT ports.

Open the Port Lock dialog box by double-clicking the Port Lock icon

in the Control Panel.

To enable (lock) a port, select the appropriate check box(es) and click

OK.

HP Compaq t5300 thin client models do not have legacy ports.

Therefore, the Port Lock program will not appear in the Control Panel

for those systems.
