Configure the L2TP Server
As an alternate solution to IPSec VPN tunnels, you can configure a Layer 2 Tunneling
Protocol (L2TP) server on the wireless VPN firewall to allow users to access L2TP clients
over L2TP tunnels.
An L2TP Access Concentrator (LAC) typically initia
tes a tunnel to fullfil a connection request
from an L2TP user; the L2TP server accommodates the tunnel request. After an L2TP tunnel
is established, the L2TP user can connect to an L2TP client that is located behind the
wireless VPN firewall.
Note: IPSec VPN provides stronger authentication and encryption than
L2TP. (Packets that traverse the L2TP tunnel are not encapsulated
by IPSec.)
