What is a PtP connection, btw?
It's a connection between two single machines (point to point) as opposed to most routing rules which connects networks, or single machines to networks. It can be used for a number of things, with the point to point protocol daemon pppd (usually dialup connections), but also certain types of DSL uses some form of point-to-point to connect through the DSL modem. Another use is in VPN.
