How to enable VPN Passthrough on the 585v7 BeBox
If you are like me and have been losing sleep and hair over the inability to VPN in to a Windows Based PPTP VPN server then here is your answer.
It seems that there is no web based configuration ability to enable Protocol 47 (GRE) on the bebox.
Start by mapping the PPTP and possibly IPSEC-IKE to the VPN server using the normal "Games & Applications" area on the BeBox.
You can then telnet in and issue:
nat mapadd intf=Static_IP type=napt outside_addr=87.194.x.x inside_addr=192.168.3.10 protocol=gre saveall
Replace 87.194.x.x with your external Be* IP.
Replace 192.168.3.10 with your internal server IP.
Or you can edit your config nat section to look like this:
[ nat.ini ] ifconfig intf=Static_IP translation=enabled mapadd intf=Static_IP outside_addr=87.194.x.x inside_addr=192.168.3.10 protocol=gre weight=10 mapadd intf=Static_IP outside_addr=87.194.x.x inside_addr=127.0.0.1 weight=10 config
Replace 87.194.x.x with your external Be* IP.
Replace 192.168.3.10 with your internal server IP.

The above was extrapolated and rewritten for the 585v7 from the following documentation http://pagesperso-orange.fr/michel-m/Speedtouch/outils/Guide_to_Pinholing_the_Alcatel_SpeedTouch_Pro.doc
VPN Passthrough on the 585v6 & 780 BeBox
Use the above instructions but replace "Static_IP" with "RoutedEthoA"
Dynamic IP with a 585v7
If software version is 7.4.20.3 and you use a dynamic IP try the above instructions but replace "Static_IP" with "Dynamic_IP".
If that does not work, try replacing "Static_IP" with "Internet".
