L2TP VPN
Server
Path: VPN > L2TP VPN > Server
A L2TP VPN can be established through this switch. Once enabled, an L2TP server is available on the switch for
LAN and Option L2TP client users to access. Once the L2TP server is enabled, L2TP clients that are within the
range of configured IP addresses of allowed clients can reach the controller’s L2TP server. Once authenticated by
the L2TP server (the tunnel endpoint), L2TP clients have access to the network managed by the switch.
The range of IP addresses allocated to L2TP clients can coincide with the LAN subnet. The L2TP server will default
to local L2TP user authentication, but can be configured to employ an external authentication server should one
be configured.
