15.6 Configuring remote access client via L2TP
L2TP ( Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol) is a sophisticated tunneling protocol used to support virtual private
networks. L2TP encapsulates PPP frames into IP packets for transmission via global IP network, e.g. the
Internet. L2TP may be used for tunnel establishment between two local area networks. L2TP uses an
additional UDP connection for tunnel handling. L2TP protocol does not provide data encryption, therefore it is
usually combined with an IPsec protocol group that provides security on a packet level.
