Development and Code Review / Implementing PPTP Client ?

« on: January 22, 2020, 04:42:17 pm »

I understand PPTP is considered insecure but in my case the usage is more for the static IP I would use it than for a perspective of security/anonymity

As @Franco was suggesting in https://forum.opnsense.org/index.php?topic=8601.msg38670#msg38670 it would be possible to extend the module os-pptp and adding a section client like OpenVPN have.

Also @Franco asked, it would be easier to implement with a specific consideration and add option on demand.
So the specific configuration is already possible on pfSense Linux and it is with PureVPN: https://support.purevpn.com/command-line-setup-in-debian-linux

What do you think ?

Hi everyone;

1.
My public IP, in fact all ip of my ISP are blacklisted by spamhaus.
if I active the IPS mode on my WAN and active the DROP list what will happen ?

2.
If the IPS mode is activated on my LAN interface and I forward a ports; do these ports still under the IPS protection or the traffic will be forward before ?
