Example: Configuring your Router to Dial-in to the Server
Currently, Microsoft Windows operation system does not support L2TP incoming service. Additional
software may be required to set up your L2TP incoming service.
L2TP Connection - LAN to LAN
L2TP VPN Connection
Name: A given name of the connection.
Connection Type: Remote Access or LAN to LAN.
Active: This function activates or deactivates the L2TP connection. Check Active checkbox if you want
the protocol of tunnel to be activated and vice versa.
Note: When the Active checkbox is checked, the function of Edit and Delete will not be available.
Type: Check Dial Out if you want your router to operate as a client (connecting to a remote VPN server,
e.g. your office server), check Dial In operates as a VPN server.
When configuring your router establish the connection to a remote LAN, enter the remote Server
IP Address (or Hostname) you wish to connection to.
When configuring your router as a server to accept incoming connections, enter the Private IP
Address Assigned to Dial in User address.
Peer Network IP: Enter Peer network IP address.
Netmask: Enter the subnet mask of peer network based on the Peer Network IP setting.
Username: If you are a Dial-Out user (client), enter the username provided by your Host. If you are a
Dial-In user (server), enter your own username.
Password: If you are a Dial-Out user (client), enter the password provided by your Host. If you are a
Dial-In user (server), enter your own password.
Authentication Type: Default is Auto if you want the router to determine the authentication type to use,
or else manually specify CHAP (Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol) or PAP (Password
Authentication Protocol) if you know which type the server is using (when acting as a client), or else the
authentication type you want clients connecting to you to use (when acting as a server). When using PAP,
the password is sent unencrypted, whilst CHAP encrypts the password before sending, and also allows
for challenges at different periods to ensure that the client has not been replaced by an intruder.
Tunnel Authentication: This enables router to authenticate both the L2TP remote and L2TP host. This
is only valid when L2TP remote supports this feature.
