8.1.2 Enable internet users to access resources of the LAN
Scenario: You have set up an FTP server within the LAN of the router.
Goal: Open the FTP server to internet users and enable them to access the resources of the FTP
server from the internet.
Solution: You can configure the PPTP server function to reach the goal. Assume that:
− The user name and password that the PPTP server assigns to the client are both
admin1.
− The WAN IP address of router is 113.88.112.220.
− The IP address of the FTP server is 192.168.0.136.
− The FTP server port is 21.
− The FTP login user name and password are both: JohnDoe

class C. Private IP addresses of class A range from 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255; Private IP addresses of
class B range from 172.16.0.0-172.31.255.255; Private IP addresses of class C range from 192.168.0.0-
