Open Policy Manager and "add a service". Find and add PPTP (or IPSEC depending on your needs). Hit Close. Back on the Policy Manager you should now see PPTP. Open PPTP and make sure Incoming is Enabled and Denied (unless you need to VPN into your network) and make sure Outgoing is Enabled and Allowed. You can take it further by stating the FROM and TO rules, allowing only the trusted network (or specific IP address) to send out in the FROM box. And specifying the destination Public IP in the TO box.

After this is set, select File > Save > to Firebox (it will save the config file as well). It may require a reboot, but it will tell you.
