Introduction
This How To Note shows an example of using a dynamic routing protocol over an L2TP
tunnel.
Running dynamic routing protocols over a secure Internet connection can be a complex
issue, with the possibility of intermittent connections causing routing problems.
OSPF (or BGP) are more connection-oriented than RIP and therefore are more susceptible
to problems caused by intermittent loss of connection between 'neighbours'. A neighbour
that may bounce up and down can cause havoc to the correct propagation of OSPF routing
information for a network.
The following example scenario is for setting up RIP over an L2TP tunnel. RIP is simpler and
has less overhead and control, so it provides a more robust setup as a dynamic routing
protocol over an L2TP tunnel.
Which products does it apply to?
This Note applies to the following Allied Telesis routers, running software version 2.6.1 or
later:
