OpenL2TP is a complete implementation of RFC2661 - Layer Two Tunneling
|
|
Protocol Version 2, able to operate as both a server and a client.
|
|
|
|
OpenL2TP has been written specifically for Linux. It consists of
|
|
- a daemon, openl2tpd, handling the L2TP control protocol exchanges
|
|
for all tunnels and sessions
|
|
- a plugin for pppd to allow its PPP connections to run over L2TP
|
|
sessions
|
|
- a Linux kernel driver for efficient datapath (packaged separately).
|
|
- a command line application for management.
|
|
|
|
All data packets are handled by the Linux kernel in order that the
|
|
datapath be as efficient as possible. The Linux PPP-over-L2TP kernel
|
|
driver (pppol2tp.o) must be loaded either dynamically as a kernel
|
|
module or linked in statically.

See README.SLACKWARE for post-installation configuration notes.
