Summary
L2TP (Layer 2 Tunnel Protocol) supports encrypted tunnels over IP. The MikroTik RouterOS
implementation includes support for both L2TP client and server.
General applications of L2TP tunnels include:
• secure router-to-router tunnels over the Internet
• linking (bridging) local Intranets or LANs (in cooperation with EoIP)
• extending PPP user connections to a remote location (for example, to separate authentication
and Internet access points for ISP)
