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