Hi List,
I have an Android phone that offers
- PPTP-VPN
- L2TP-VPN
- L2TP/IPSec PSK-VPN
- L2TP/IPSec CRT-VPN
(That's Android 2.2.1, but possibly with certain backports or
vendor-specific extensions by Motorola)
I would like to connect it to my pfSense 2.0.1-RELEASE box so I have a
secure connection with my LAN when I'm on the road.
I've found http://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Android_VPN_Connectivity but
I'm more confused than enlightened after reading that.
So far, I only have experience with OpenVPN, which isn't available on my
phone (and since it has a locked bootloader, I can't root it).
What is going to be the easy and painless way of establishing a VPN
connection between my phone and the pfSense box?
I faintly remember some protocols are less secure than others, but I
don't remember which ones, and saw the note on the above-mentioned wiki
page that L2TP does not encrypt traffic. I'm taking that as a hint that
I shouldn't be using L2TP on its own, but should I go the PPTP route or
is one of the L2TP/IPSec combinations going to work with the components
involved?
Thanks in advance for all your suggestions.
-Stefan
