L2TP (Layer Two Tunneling Protocol) is a combination of the Point-to-Point Tunneling
Protocol (PPTP) and Layer 2 Forwarding (L2F.) Compared to PPTP, which only establishes a
single tunnel between the two end points, L2TP supports the use of multiple tunnels. IPsec is
often used to secure L2TP packets by providing confidentiality, authentication and integrity
checks. The combination of these two protocols provides a high-security VPN solution which
is known as L2TP/IPsec. L2TP/IPsec is supported by most clients, including Windows, Mac,
Linux, and mobile devices.
