Hi,
I've been looking at the L2TP server support in FreeBSD.
So far, I've found the following:
sl2tps
mpd + some patch - L2TP patch documented in German
l2tpd - marked as broken
Given that the mpd patch was not in ports, and was only documented in
German, and that l2tpd was marked broken, I though I would try sl2tps.
However, when trying to connect from l2tpd on Linux, the FreeBSD box
logs the following and rejects the attempt: "processing failed on
mandatory AVP"
After a few attempts, the sl2tps process stops responding to any L2TP
packets. Even killing the process and starting it again doesn't help -
I have to completely reboot the FreeBSD box, which suggests there is a
fault in the kernel code.
Can someone please advise the preferred way of running a stable L2TP
server on FreeBSD? Which version of FreeBSD and which daemon? We are
aiming to terminate 100+ concurrent tunnels from a variety of client
devices.
Regards,
Daniel
