9 | Layer Two Tunneling Protocol | ||
10 | |||
11 | From RFC 2661 <http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2661.txt>. | ||
12 | |||
13 | L2TP facilitates the tunneling of packets across an | ||
14 | intervening network in a way that is as transparent as | ||
15 | possible to both end-users and applications. | ||
16 | |||
17 | L2TP is often used to tunnel PPP traffic over IP | ||
18 | tunnels. One IP tunnel may carry thousands of individual PPP | ||
19 | connections. L2TP is also used as a VPN protocol, popular | ||
20 | with home workers to connect to their offices. | ||
21 | |||
22 | The kernel component handles only L2TP data packets: a | ||
23 | userland daemon handles L2TP the control protocol (tunnel | ||
24 | and session setup). One such daemon is OpenL2TP | ||
25 | (http://openl2tp.org/). | ||
26 | |||
27 | If you don't need L2TP, say N. To compile all L2TP code as | ||
28 | modules, choose M here. | ||
