L2TP commands

allow l2tp

Use allow l2tp to configure an LNS to accept L2TP tunneling requests from a specified LAC, and to
specify a VT interface for tunnel setup.
Use undo allow to restore the default.
Syntax
For L2TP group 1:
•
allow l2tp virtual-template virtual-template-number [ remote remote-name ]
undo allow
For L2TP groups other than L2TP group 1:
•
allow l2tp virtual-template virtual-template-number remote remote-name
undo allow
Default
An LNS denies L2TP tunneling requests from any LACs.

Parameters
virtual-template virtual-template-number: Specifies a VT interface by its number in the range of 0 to 1023.
An LNS dynamically creates virtual access (VA) interfaces based on the configuration of a VT interface.
Each VA interface is used to carry data for a different L2TP session.
remote remote-name: Specifies the name of the tunnel peer (LAC) initiating tunneling requests, a
case-sensitive string of 1 to 31 characters.
Usage guidelines
The allow l2tp command is available only to L2TP groups in LNS mode.
Make sure the specified name of the tunnel peer is consistent with the local name configured on the LAC.
If you execute this command multiple times for an L2TP group, the most recent configuration takes effect.
For L2TP group 1, if you do not specify the remote remote-name option, an LNS accepts tunneling
requests from any LACs. In this case, L2TP group 1 serves as the default L2TP group.
The allow l2tp command is available only to LNSs. When an LAC that initiates a tunneling request
matches the tunnel peer name configured in an L2TP group, the LNS uses the tunnel parameters (for
example, tunnel authentication and flow control) configured in this L2TP group for tunnel setup. When the
LAC does not match the tunnel peer name configured in any L2TP group, the LNS uses the tunnel
parameters for the default L2TP group (if it exists), or it cannot set up a tunnel with the LAC (if the default
L2TP group does not exist).
