PPTP uses a TCP control channel and a Generic Routing Encapsulation tunnel to encapsulate PPP packets. Many modern VPNs use various forms of UDP for this same functionality.. The PPTP specification does not describe encryption or authentication The PPTP specification does not actually describe encryption or authentication features and relies on the PPP protocol being tunneled to implement security functionality. IKEv2 (Internet key exchange version 2) is part of the IPSec protocol suite. ACCEL-PPP is a high performance VPN server application for linux. Since version 1.8 it is also IPoE server.
