    Prestige 128+ ISDN Router Chapter 10 L2TP Support This chapter shows how to reduce the cost of remote dial-up networking by taking advantage of the Internet using L2TP (Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol). 10.1 What is L2TP? Tunneling is the key to L2TP (and other virtual dial-up services). With tunneling, protocol packets of one type of network are put inside or encapsulated in the protocol packets of another network for transport across that network.

  • Page 132: Advantages Of L2Tp

    Prestige 128+ ISDN Router 10.2 Advantages of L2TP: ♦ Users can take advantage of the low cost of the Internet. Instead of making a long-distance call to connect directly with the corporate site’s remote access server, remote users dial in to a local ISP and use the Internet to handle all long-distance connections.
  • Page 133 Prestige 128+ ISDN Router In L2TP terminology, the NAS (network access server) at the ISP is the L2TP client and is called a LAC (L2TP Access Concentrator). The Prestige at the corporate LAN is the server and is called a LNS (L2TP Network Server). A tunnel exists between the LAC and the LNS.

  • Page 134: The Prestige And L2Tp

    Prestige 128+ ISDN Router The remote user dials in to an ISP. A tunnel is then set up from the ISP across the Internet to a corporate gateway server. Once the tunnel is set up, mobile users access the corporate network as if they had dialed directly into that network. 10.3.3 Internet-based tunnel process: 1.

    Prestige 128+ ISDN Router 10.4.1 Endpoint Table Both the LNS and the LAC refer to this table to find the tunnel endpoint.

  • Page 136 Prestige 128+ ISDN Router In this scenario, the ISP is the LAC. The LAC will search for the Endpoint Name (domain or realm name) in its endpoint table to know whether it should create a tunnel or not (i.e., ordinary Internet access). In the above example, a tunnel is created between the Prestige LNS and the LAC.

  • Page 138: Figure 10-5 Menu 10 - Tunnel Endpoint Setup

    Prestige 128+ ISDN Router since the LAC’s IP address could be dynamically assigned each time a call is made to the ISP, the user can enter any IP address in this case i.e., it is irrelevant – see Figure 10-2. The LNS will accept the tunnel setup request from any IP address as long as My Host Name and Shared Secret are correct.
