Configuring VPDN
Virtual private dial-up networking (VPDN) enables users to configure secure networks that take
advantage of Internet service providers (ISPs) that tunnel a company’s remote access traffic through
the ISP cloud.
Remote offices or mobile users can connect to their home network using local third-party dial-up
services. The dial-up service provider agrees to forward the company’s traffic from the ISP point of
presence (POP) to a company-run home gateway. Network configuration and security remains in the
control of the client. The dial-up service provider provides a virtual connection between the
company’s sites.
Note
The MMP feature uses VPDN to connect multiple PPP sessions for which individual dial-in
calls have arrived on different stack group members. VPDN provides speed and reliability for the
setup and shutdown of Multilink PPP.

To verify your VPDN configuration:
•
Enter the show vpdn command to make sure the tunnels are active (see line 2 in the following
example):
5300# show vpdn
Active L2F tunnels = 2
