l2tp authentication question

lgontarsk · ‎01-09-2008

Hi,

We have a LNS which is connecting to our partners LAC. I've been mandated to provide password authentication for this connection. Looking online, all that I see is authentication for the users that will be using the LAC/LNS connection. But... I don't see a way to authenticate the LAC itself. This is a working tunnel currently, with no password for the LAC/LNS connection.

Here's our config:

vpdn-group VZ

accept-dialin

protocol l2tp

virtual-template 1

terminate-from hostname VZWLAC

source-ip 216.x.x.254

local name GC

l2tp tunnel framing capabilities all

l2tp tunnel bearer capabilities all

ip pmtu

ip mtu adjust

interface Virtual-Template1

ip unnumbered Loopback0

ip mtu 1400

ip policy route-map clear-df

peer default ip address pool guamcell

no keepalive

ppp authentication chap

ppp ipcp dns 63.x.x.20 63.103.50.17

Thanks!

Better you can try LNS authentication server performs an authentication process based on the LNS local name and shared password . And the LNS can perform the authentication locally
