Description

Provides a client for connecting to PPTP VPN servers. PPTP is an older Microsoft tunneling protocol and is generally kept for compatibility with legacy networks.

Use it only when a network explicitly requires PPTP. For new VPN setups, stronger modern protocols are usually preferred because PPTP is considered outdated for security.
