PPTP insecurity / bug - EAP-TLS ?? was created by reetp
I have some 2820 routers and wanted to be able to usee PPTP to VPN occasionally.

Having read around it would that normal PAP/MSCHAP authentication for PPTP is more full of holes than gorgonzola cheese and I wondered if PPTP will support EAP-TLS as it does not appear to at the minute ?

"1) All users and providers of PPTP VPN solutions should immediately start migrating to a different VPN protocol. PPTP traffic should be considered unencrypted.

2) Enterprises who are depending on the mutual authentication properties of MS-CHAPv2 for connection to their WPA2 Radius servers should immediately start migrating to something else. "

It would seem that effecively PAP/MSCHAP authentication is deprecated and should be considered a bug that needs fixing.

Anyone (Draytek perhaps ?) have any thoughts on this ??
