L2TP network server 2821 router?

[marijavuk41]

Can 2821 router with appropirate IOS image be L2TP network server and support 400-500 L2TP simultaneous connections? We want to use access VPDN that uses L2TP as tunneling protocol to provide remote users access to our services and to the Internet.

Hi Marija,

That's right, the 2821 can be used as an L2TP server (LNS or LAC).

It supports 900 IDBs, which means that you can provide access to around 900 remote-users. Also, it supports a maximum of 880 L2TP sessions/tunnels.

You can find detailed information on the following link:
