How to disable PPTP connections in brackets?

Question

Mikrotik

Hello.
There is a PPTP server on Mikrotik, other Mirotiks connect to it.
For example, there is a pptp-home connection.
Other clients connect to my Mikrotik and everything works fine.
If there is a short break in the connection, then the microtics reconnect, but the name in the interface becomes in brackets, respectively, all the rules and routes stop working on them.
I remove the parenthesized connection and the client reconnects correctly in pptp-home.
I'm tired of deleting connections in parentheses every time.
How to make it so that connections in brackets are not created?

Answer 1

You need to set the minimum keep alive in the pptp server settings. In this case, it makes sense to set the value from the server side to less than from the client side.
In this case, the client will reconnect only after the router considers the old tunnel to be down.

show screenshot.
and try fixing them:

/interface pptp-server
add name=pptp-home user=pptp-home
