That's cool!

I guess I need to read up on PPTP (sigh).
Does the protocol work through a 1:1 NAT today?

If so... what's the size of your external IPv4 pool?

Are you able to perform some measurements of the number of PPTP sessions?
Or rather the number of sessions you have which are not UDP, TCP. And sort them 
IP src, dst and protocol?

The question I want to answer is. How big must the external IPv4 pool be, for a 
transport layer independent NAT to function.
E.g. if all your PPTP sessions goes to _different_ destination addresses, a 
single IPv4 address works fine.
But if a larger number than the number of source addresses PPTP sessions go to 
the _same_ destination address we would be in trouble.

Best regards,
Ole
