Note that the PPTP UI is all there, but it's hidden due to bug 1551823.

FWIW, Apple is about to remove the ability to use PPTP VPNs: “iOS 10 and macOS Sierra will remove PPTP connections from any VPN profile … we don't recommend that you use it for secure, private communication.” <https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT206844>
