Is it possible to run both PPTP Client and PPTP Server on a single MikroTik router simultaneously?

Running both a PPTP Client and PPTP Server on a single MikroTik router simultaneously is indeed possible. When configuring a MikroTik router, the PPTP Client establishes a connection to an external PPTP server, while the PPTP Server allows incoming connections from remote clients.

This dual functionality is useful for various scenarios. For instance, a router might need to connect to a VPN (Virtual Private Network) via a PPTP Client for secure data access, while simultaneously offering its own PPTP Server capabilities to allow remote users or branches to connect back to the local network.

MikroTik routers are designed to handle multiple tasks and manage multiple connections efficiently, which is why this dual setup can be advantageous in network configurations that require both client and server capabilities.
