Testing the PPTP connection

Applies To: Windows Server 2003, Windows Server 2003 R2, Windows Server 2003 with SP1, Windows Server 2003 with SP2

Testing the PPTP connection

From a computer on the branch office network, the ping command is used to ping a computer on the corporate network and activate the demand-dial PPTP connection. Once connected, the ping command is used again. If a reply is received from that computer, the packets are being routed correctly. For more information, see Using the ping command.

For this scenario, the status of both the ISP and PPTP connections is determined by checking each of the following conditions:

  1. Is there a connection to the ISP?

    From the branch office server running Routing and Remote Access, the connection state of the ISP demand-dial interface is checked.

  2. Is there a connection by PPTP to the corporate network?

    From the branch office server running Routing and Remote Access, a manual connection to the corporate office is made by using the PPTP demand-dial interface. Once connected, a computer is pinged on the corporate network.

For more information, see Troubleshooting demand-dial routing.
