Does Astaro support GRE protocol ?

I am trying to create a packet filter to allow MS Windows 2000 VPN sessions through.

Microsoft states:
You can resolve this problem by ensuring that GRE Protocol 47 is open at the router or firewall. This protocol is required for PPTP to work correctly.

How can I define this in Astaro ? I do not see any "GRE" definition.

I have installed the latest version of ASL and I have GRE listed in the Packet Filter page. It's in the Service Drop-down. I have GRE allowed outbound and port 1723 allowed outbound and I can VPN into work to beat the band.

Does anyone know this? if ASL supports the GRE protocol (47) - I need to NAT this through to a VPN server on the inside.

I have ASL 2.027
