3.7.3 3.7.3. L2TP
L2TP (Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol) combines PPTP (Point to Point Tunneling Protocol) and L2F (Layer 2 Forwarding).
L2TP only supports user authentication, but no encryption. Therefore, L2TP is used in conjunction with an IPSec
tunnel to guarantee encryption. L2TP is oen used to connect single computers (keyword: road warrior) to the
network.

Under VPN > L2TP > L2TP Client the corresponding client for the tunnel is created. The respective entries must be
added with the Add button and are only completely saved when the Apply & Save button is clicked.
