The rest of the parameters are user preferential so you should set them as you see fit. A short explanation on these parameters is provided below:
* '''Local IP''' defines the server's virtual IP address
* '''Remote IP range''' parameters define the range of virtual IP addresses that will be assigned to connecting clients
* '''User name''' and '''Password''' parameters define a client's authentication info
* '''PPTP Client's IP''' option is used for assigning a specific virtual IP to a specific client. It is not mandatory and if lefty, the client will be assigned an IP address from the specified Remote IP range
Once you're done setting these parameters don't forget to click the '''Save''' button.
