    The address really doesn't have anything to do with either. DNS is just used to resolve a friendly name to an IP address. You can use a DNS name or IP address to connect to either. Those are used to specify where the VPN server is located.

    From a client's perspective, you'd basically just select L2TP or PPTP from a drop-down list. The underlying technology, ports, protocols, etc. vary between them though. You may want to hit up Wikipedia or Google to find more details. I'm not sure what level of knowledge you need for the Network+ on this topic.

    you really only need to know what a VPN does and that PPTP and L2TP are associated with it.

    just that pptp and l2tp are tunneling protocols used in a VPN connection and that they can be used to create secure connections across the internet.
