Network
The network from which traffic should be routed into the tunnel.
RemoteEndpoint
The IP address of the L2TP/PPTP server.
TunnelProtocol
Specifies if PPTP or L2TP should be used for this tunnel. (Default: PPTP)

Specifies what IP address to use as source IP in e.g. NAT. (Default: LocalInterface)
OriginatorIP

DNS1
IP of the primary DNS server. (Optional)
DNS2
IP of the secondary DNS server. (Optional)

Password
The password to use for this PPTP/L2TP interface.
