3. Assign an IP address to the VT
interface or enable IP address
negotiation so that the VT
interface accepts the IP address
negotiated with the peer.
ip address address mask
ip address ppp-negotiate
Use either command.
By default, no IP address is
assigned by default.
4. Configure the authentication
method for the LAC to use to
authenticate the virtual PPP user.
ppp authentication-mode { chap
| pap } * [ domain isp-name ]
By default, no authentication is
performed for PPP users.
5. Configure the username and
password for PAP authentication
or CHAP authentication.
Method 1:
Configure the username and
password for PAP
authentication:
ppp pap local-user username
password { cipher | simple }
password
Method 2:
Configure the username and
password for CHAP
authentication:
a. ppp chap user username
b. ppp chap password
{ cipher | simple }
password
Use one method according to the
authentication method configured
on the LAC for virtual PPP users.
By default:
No PAP username and
password are configured for
PPP users.
No CHAP username and
password are configured for
PPP users.
6. Configure AAA authentication
for VPN users on the LAC side.
See "Configuring AAA
authentication for VPN users on
LAC side."

7. Trigger the LAC to establish an
L2TP tunnel with the LNS.
l2tp-auto-client enable
By default, an LAC does not
establish an L2TP tunnel.
For more information about commands interface virtual-template, ppp authentication-mode, ppp pap,
and ppp chap, see Network Management Command Reference.
Configuring an LNS
An LNS responds to the tunneling requests from an LAC, authenticates users, and assigns IP addresses to
users.
Before configuring an LNS, enable L2TP and create an L2TP group.
Creating a VT interface
A VT interface is intended to provide parameters for virtual access interfaces to be dynamically created
by the device, such as logical MP interfaces and logical L2TP interfaces.
After an L2TP session is established, a virtual access interface is needed for a data exchange with the
peer. An LNS can use different VA interfaces to exchange data with different LACs. You need to specify
the VT interface for receiving calls. The system will dynamically create a VA interface based on the
configuration parameters in the specified VT interface.
To create a VT interface:
