Lukasz,

With L2TP, you are creating a point to point link. You will be
configuring the pseudowire on the virtual-ppp interface that would get
an IP address assigned via a pool on the LNS or using RADIUS
(framed-ip-address). The default route on your router on the left hand
side would point to the virtual-ppp interface.

Thanks Gaurav,



This is very good :)...last question if you add LAN to the router on the left and LAN behind L2TP server and you want to transmit the TCP traffic
from PC from the Router LAN into L2TP server LAN.
I guess you need to change the pseudowire source to be the LAN interface
(instead of loopback) but how routing will work?

Yes. You will need to use IPsec tunnel mode. Commonly seen
configuration calls for a loopback interface to be the source of all
the interesting traffic and the pseudowire-class would use the
loopback interface as the source. The IPsec ACL will be source as
loopback and destination as your LNS.

Thanks Gaurav,

that makes sens, but I guess in that situation at first the router on the left should not be able to reach the L2tp server till it establish IPsec connection to the firewall? If that is the case then I need Ipsec tunnel mode? If I put transport mode I probably need some static route on the
router or routing protocol which would points out the L2TP server?

Lukasz,

Yes. You can have IPsec terminating on a firewall and L2TP terminating on a router. The major advantage that you would get is off loading the crypto to a dedicated firewall. Until and unless you use routers such as 7200 with VAM2+ type encryption engine, it might be best to off load the crypto to another device. Another reason for using a firewall
to terminate IPsec would be the security that it provides (think
IDS/IPS, etc.).

Thanks,
Gaurav

Hi All,


I have feasibility question regarding l2tp and ipsec. I know you need
to
run
l2tp over ipsec but...can you terminate the ipsec on the ipsec head end
and
l2tp on the other device? If this is possible what is the advantage of
that
scenario? I believe the IPsec needs to be in transport mode in order
for
 this to work.

I only found information on cisco website about L2TPoverIPsec
terminated
on
the same head end.



scenario


 |router| ------- |IPsec Head end| ----- |L2TP head end|

      -----ipsec-------
 LAC     -------------------- L2TP --------------LNS



Thanks in advance

Lukasz
