Configuring L2TPv3 Tunnels

L2TPv3 improves the performance of bridging Ethernet frames over a WAN interface. Ethernet frames are
bridged over an IP network at high data packet rates and low CPU consumption. IEC61850 GOOSE messages
exchange and LAN extension are some applications of this feature.
ROX II supports Static L2TPv3 tunnel over UDP starting with version 2.5. Static tunnel is an unmanaged tunnel
type. All tunnel information, such as tunnel id, session id, cookies etc., must be agreed in advance between two
endpoints to establish a tunnel. There are no control messages exchanged with this type of tunnel.
To configure L2TPv3 tunnels, do the following:
1. Change the mode to Edit Private or Edit Exclusive.
Navigate to tunnel » l2tpv3 » static. The Static L2TPv3 Tunnels Enable form appears.

The Maximum Receive Unit (MRU) or maximum packet size passed when received.
Description
Enables L2TP.
The local IP address. When set, all L2TP interfaces (l2tp-ppp-0, l2tp-ppp-1, etc.) will use
the same IP address. To use different local IP addresses (chosen from an IP pool) for
different L2TP interfaces, leave this parameter empty.
The first address in the IP address pool. If local-ip is not set, both local and remote IP
addresses will be taken from this pool.
The maximum number of connections.
Default: 60
The number of seconds to wait before the tunnel is cleaned up after the tunnel moves to
closing-wait state.
