L2TP
3 TopicsL2TP AD integration and DH key length
L2TP with IPSEC is for sure easy to setup, but even more convenient would be to use Active Directory authentication, such as one for SSL VPN and admin role setup. Windows internal VPN client offers domain credentials as on option for authentication, that would ease the setup. Of course there would be need for group membership checking or explicitly define, which users are allowed to login. Also, DH should allow use of 2048-bit keys.15KViews1like1CommentFVS336Gv3 - L2TP/IPsec on Windows 10
I have a Windows Server running RRAS with PPTP. The FVS forwards this with no problem. The problem is we now need to move to L2TP. I have created this on the Windows server, and from within the LAN, a client machine (my laptop) can connect directly to the server(using the internal server name). But as soon as I go outside the network it doesn't work (using external address). We do have a site to site IP SEC VPN running between this FVS and one in another site. I hope this isn't causing the problem?? I have forwarded UDP 500, 4500, 1701 and pretty much every other port in desperation. I have enabled L2TP Passthrough. I have made sure the external address is pingable. I have upgraded the firmware today to 4.3.4-1. Any suggestions greatfully welcome! thanks, Arron7.1KViews0likes9CommentsOrbi RBR40 L2TP Odd Behavior
Strange one here. I connect to a small business via L2TP VPN. My iOS devices connect just fine. My Mac OS X and Windows 10 devices cannot connect. This throws me. Why are the mobile devices working while the full-fledged devices aren't? Obviously, I'm able to reach the remote server from those devices, so the Orbi appears to be doing what it should. Any clue?
