Hello Daniel,

Why do you want to configure L2TP on this 861? L2TP LAC&LNS is only supported on high end routers like 7200s. Is the L2TP going to be used to connect to an Internet connection? Is this located at Israel?

Regards.

Yes is to connect to ISP in Israel but you say the 861 FE is not support this connection , rigth ?

Daniel,

Isarael's ISPs (Netvision) uses a different L2TP setup, it is not the same L2TP as in LAC & LNS. Here is a sample I had for that type of connection:

pseudowire-class dialer_to_ISP
encapsulation l2tpv2
ip local interface gi0/1
ip pmtu max 1470
!
!
!
interface gi0/1
description "---LINE_TO_CABLE_MODEM---"
ip address dhcp client-id gi0/1
ip virtual-reassembly
duplex auto
speed auto
no cdp enable
!
interface Virtual-PPP1
ip address negotiated
ip mtu 1420
ip nat outside
ip virtual-reassembly
no cdp enable
no ppp chap wait
ppp pap sent-username USERNAME password 0 PASSWORD
pseudowire 1 pw-class dialer_to_ISP
!
interface gi0/0
description "---To_Lan---"
ip address 192.168.8.1 255.255.255.0
ip nat inside
ip virtual-reassembly
!
interface Dialer0
no ip address
no cdp enable
!
ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 Virtual-PPP1
ip route 255.255.255.255 gi0/1

I hope this helps.

Hi Juan

The ISPs in Israel use the MS L2TP/ PPTP mode with "optional encryption( connect even if not encryption) " or the configuration in a router with support for L2TP (ej. Netgear) . I configure the router with the following info : "user ID","Password " ," L2TP Gateway" ,"MTU = 1392","Connection Type = Continuous", "Idle Time =10 minutes"

On the configuration you send me I have to make any change ? If yes where and what change?

I thanks you for your answers ( Gracias !)

Daniel,

De nada!! I would recommend trying the configuration I sent by just changing the username/password and using "L2TP Gateway" information as the ISP's next hop IP address.

Regards.
