I set up an L2TP VPN with npppd recently using pppx, and other than some routing issues with ospfd it works great. I'm trying to add a second VPN connection, but that doesn't seem to work using pppx.
With this config: interface pppx0 address 10.128.120.1 ipcp IPCP_admin interface pppx1 address 10.128.120.129 ipcp IPCP bind tunnel from L2TP_ipv4 authenticated by LOCAL_admin to pppx0 bind tunnel from L2TP_ipv4 authenticated by LOCAL to pppx1 npppd won't start: # npppd -d 2014-03-19 14:08:27:NOTICE: Starting npppd pid=28792 version=5.0.0 2014-03-19 14:08:27:WARNING: pptpd GRE protocol not allowed 2014-03-19 14:08:27:NOTICE: Load configuration from='/etc/npppd/npppd.conf' successfully. 2014-03-19 14:08:27:INFO: pppx0 Started pppx 2014-03-19 14:08:27:ERR: pppx1 open(/dev/pppx1) failed: No such file or directory If I switch to tun instead of pppx: interface tun0 address 10.128.120.1 ipcp IPCP_admin interface tun1 address 10.128.120.129 ipcp IPCP bind tunnel from L2TP_ipv4 authenticated by LOCAL_admin to tun0 bind tunnel from L2TP_ipv4 authenticated by LOCAL to tun1 it works fine: # npppd -d 2014-03-19 14:14:28:NOTICE: Starting npppd pid=3355 version=5.0.0 2014-03-19 14:14:28:WARNING: pptpd GRE protocol not allowed 2014-03-19 14:14:28:NOTICE: Load configuration from='/etc/npppd/npppd.conf' successfully. 2014-03-19 14:14:28:INFO: tun0 Started ip4addr=10.128.120.1 2014-03-19 14:14:28:INFO: tun1 Started ip4addr=10.128.120.129 Is there any way to make two VPN connections work with pppx, or are you stuck with tun for that scenario? Thanks...
