Of course, we could get really funky and start talking about tunnels, where the "interface" is really a logical construct that takes you into other processing that eventually comes back and does more route table lookups and starts the whole process over again...but that's getting off the subject. :)
Not for long. ;-) I am trying to set up some sort of Tunneling from our Total Controls in order to utilize a web filtering system. I would prefer to use L2TP, but I could cope with IPIP or PPTP.
The Arc support L2TP and PPTP...I'm with you in prefering L2TP there. :) They also support VTP, but that's pretty much only used for tunnels set up at the control of MPIP.
I am curious what needs to be set up in RADIUS (Cistron)
Well...would still be a framed user, you'll probably need a Tunnel-Type attributed, perhaps a Tunnel-Medium-Type attribute (though that probably defaults to what you'd expect), perhaps a Tunnel-Client-Endpoint (though, again, the probably defaults sanely), certainly a Tunnel-Server-Endpoint. You can put a Tunnel-Password on there to provide some measure of security on who you allow to set up the tunnel (assuming you don't have other access controls on that).
and what I need on the Linux box I intend to use as a LNS. I have seen L2TPd and the ip_tunneling modules in Linux, but I can't quite comprehend how to get it all working as a LNS. Thanx in advance.
On this part, you're on your own...I've never done l2tp or tunneling on a Linux box, it should be possible without any real problem, but I just don't have any experience with it. -- Jeff McAdams Email: jeffm@iglou.com Head Network Administrator Voice: (502) 966-3848 IgLou Internet Services (800) 436-4456 - To unsubscribe to usr-tc, send an email to "majordomo@xmission.com" with "unsubscribe usr-tc" in the body of the message.
