Setup guide

(without need of bridging over EoIP tunnels).
Please, consult the respective manual on how to set up a L2TP client with the software you are
using.
The router in this example:
• [RemoteOffice]
Interface ToInternet 192.168.81.1/24
Interface Office 10.150.1.254/24
The client computer can access the router through the Internet.
On the L2TP server a user must be set up for the client:
[admin@RemoteOffice] ppp secret> add name=ex service=l2tp password=lkjrht
local-address=10.150.1.254 remote-address=10.150.1.2
[admin@RemoteOffice] ppp secret> print detail
Flags: X - disabled
0 name="ex" service=l2tp caller-id="" password="lkjrht" profile=default
local-address=10.150.1.254 remote-address=10.150.1.2 routes==""
[admin@RemoteOffice] ppp secret>
Then the user should be added in the L2TP server list:
[admin@RemoteOffice] interface l2tp-server> add name=FromLaptop user=ex
[admin@RemoteOffice] interface l2tp-server> print
Flags: X - disabled, D - dynamic, R - running
# NAME USER MTU CLIENT-ADDRESS UPTIME ENC...
0 FromLaptop ex
[admin@RemoteOffice] interface l2tp-server>
And the server must be enabled:
[admin@RemoteOffice] interface l2tp-server server> set enabled=yes
[admin@RemoteOffice] interface l2tp-server server> print
enabled: yes
mtu: 1460
mru: 1460
authentication: mschap2
default-profile: default
[admin@RemoteOffice] interface l2tp-server server>
Finally, the proxy APR must be enabled on the 'Office' interface:
[admin@RemoteOffice] interface ethernet> set Office arp=proxy-arp
[admin@RemoteOffice] interface ethernet> print
Flags: X - disabled, R - running
# NAME MTU MAC-ADDRESS ARP
0 R ToInternet 1500 00:30:4F:0B:7B:C1 enabled
1 R Office 1500 00:30:4F:06:62:12 proxy-arp
[admin@RemoteOffice] interface ethernet>
L2TP Setup for Windows
Microsoft provides L2TP client support for Windows XP, 2000, NT4, ME and 98. Windows 2000
and XP include support in the Windows setup or automatically install L2TP. For 98, NT and ME,
installation requires a download from Microsoft (L2TP/IPsec VPN Client).
For more information, see:
Microsoft L2TP/IPsec VPN Client Microsoft L2TP/IPsec VPN Client
On Windows 2000, L2TP setup without IPsec requires editing registry:
