Hello list,
I am in the process of planning a build out of a L2 VPN, in which
I'd like to have my primary "switch" and DHCP server be a FreeBSD
system. I would like to join each new host to the VPN by
establishing an IP tunnel with the primary "switch" which transports
ethernet frames over the tunnel.
you haven't really described the network well enough..
try an ascii-art diagram (don't forget to set fixed width font :-)
a VPN required two ends.. one is FreeBSD... what's the other?
So far, the only protocol I have found supported by FreeBSD which
seems capable of this is EtherIP. As far as I can tell, it doesn't
look like there is any support for L2TPv3, and none of the PPP
implementations available appear to support BCP.
I'm not completely opposed to using EtherIP, but if there is
something more modern which will meet my needs, I would probably try
that first. So my question becomes:
* Does anyone know of a method supported under FreeBSD (other than
EtherIP) for tunneling ethernet over IP that they may be able to
suggest I check out?
if both ends are FreeBSD there are dozens of possibilities..
for example:
ng_eif->netgraph->ppp->ipsec->ppp->netgraph->ng_eif
ng_eif->ng_ksock(udp)->IPsec->ng_ksock->ng_eif
tap->ppp->ppp->tap
Thanks for any suggestions!
