In a typical WLAN implementation, these rules include a captive portal to authenticate users’ credentials. In the case of L2TP, the ZoneFlex AP functions as a remote bridge. As such, it forwards traffic into PPP sessions over the L2TP tunnel. This implementation ensures that you have complete visibility into MAC addresses of users, as individual Wi-Fi clients are essentially placed (bridged) onto the ISP’s core network.
