VPN PPTP client configuration – Mikrotik RouterOS

Type, default ip address of the router: http://192.168.88.1
Go to “PPP” (1) tab and add (2) new interface: “PPTP Client” (3)

In the “General” (4) tab, in “Name” (5) field , type interface name: VPNonline-PPTP
In the “Max MTU” (6) and “Max MRU” (7) field, type “1400”

Click “Dial Out” (8) tab and fill in the fields below:

In the “User:” (10) field, type your User Name

To save settings, click “OK” (12)

Go to the “IP” (13) tab and next to“Firewall” (14)
Select “NAT” (15) tab and add new NAT rule (16)

In the “New NAT Rule” (17) select “Chain: srcnat” (18) and “Out. Interface: VPNonline-PPTP” (19)

In the next step, go to “Action” (20) tab and in the “Action” (21) field choose “masquerade”.
Click“OK” (22)

Go to the“Mangle” (23) tab and add new rule (24)

In the “Src Address” (27) field, type either the IP, or the IP range which you wish to have routed through the VPN tunnel.

In this example, we are using source address in order to identify packets which should be routed throught VPN (192.168.88.2-192.168.88.254). You can also use other means of identification or a combination of identifiers such as destination port and source address. Keep in mind, you need to make sure that traffic originating from the MikroTik router is exluded from this marking or it will attempt to communicate with the VPN server through the VPN itself, causing the connection to brake.

Go to “Action” (28) tab and in the “Action” field choose “mark routing” (29)
In the “New Routing Mark” (30) field, type “VPNonline”
To save the settings click “Apply: (31) and “OK” (32)

“Gateway” (39) – VPNonline-PPTP
“Routing Mark” (40) – VPNonline
To save settings, click “OK” (41)
