pptp-server not pushing default gateway to clients?

Thu Apr 30, 2009 6:48 am

Hi,

Is there a way to make the pptp-server on RouterOS 3.23 push the default route gateway to pptp clients? The "Routes" option in ppp secrets seems to be for creating dynamic routes on the router itself, not the client.

I am asking this because I am trying to access the pptp-server from a Nokia E90 with SymVPN, which doesn't offer the option to add custom routes manually. It works with the PPTP server at work though, and it's only with RouterOS that I don't get a default gateway sent back with the pptp IP (it stays unset to 0.0.0.0)

Maybe it's because the RouterOS' dhcp server doesn't work with pptp-server?

Any ideas?

Thanks

Arnaud

You need to apply settings for configuring default gateway on client interface.

When RouterOS is used as PPTP-client, there is the option to set 'add-default-route=yes', perhaps there is the similar options on your interface or at least opportunity to set static route configuration.
