Tunneling allows additional security to be applied to IP data traffic. This is useful when sites across an unsecure network such as the public internet. The IP Office supports two methods of tunneling, L2TP and IPSec. Once a tunnel is created, it can be used as the destination for selected IP traffic in the IP Route table. |
Two types of tunneling are supported:
| • |  L2TP - Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol PPP (Point to Point Protocol) authentication normally takes place between directly connected routing devices. For example when connecting to the internet, authentication is between the customer router and the internet service provider's equipment. L2TP allows additional authentication to be performed between the routers at each end of the connection regardless of any intermediate network routers. The use of L2TP does not require an IP Office license. |
| • | IPSec IPSec allows data between two locations to be secured using various methods of sender authentication and or data encryption. The use of IPSec requires entry of an IPSec Tunneling license (IP400 IPSec VPN RFA) into the IP Office at each end. |
