accel-ppp as a L2TP LAC?
Posted: 05 Dec 2019, 04:32
Hi
I was looking through the L2TP code and it appears, in theory, to have all the right bits to support this but I think the glue isn't present as I can't see how a L2TP tunnel is initiated from accel-ppp other than via the CLI.
Can accel-ppp act as a LAC, that is, receive PPP over L2TP sessions and then forward them over L2TP to another L2TP/PPP (LNS) end point for termination? In Cisco land, the end point is specified in a RADIUS AV Pair of:
Cisco-AVPair := "vpdn:ip-addresses=1.2.3.4"
Cisco-AVPair += "vpdn:tunnel-type=l2tp"
Cisco-AVPair += "vpdn:l2tp-tunnel-password=secret"
That causes the PPP session to be forwarded via L2TP to another L2TP end point.
Am I missing something? If not, I guess I had better get patching to make the glue...
Thanks
