Billion BIPAC-7500G–802.11g ADSL VPN Firewall Router with 3DES Accelerator

Remote Access L2TP Connection

Connection Name: This allows you to identify this particular connection, e.g. “Connection to office”.

Type: Check Dial Out if you want your router to operate as a client (connecting to a remote VPN server, e.g. your office server), check Dial In operates as a VPN server.

When configuring your router as a Client, enter the remote Server IP Address (or Hostname) you wish to connection to.

When configuring your router as a server, enter the Private IP Address Assigned to Dial in User address.

Username: If you are a Dial-Out user (client), enter the username provided by your Host. If you are a Dial-In user (server), enter your own username.

Password: If you are a Dial-Out user (client), enter the password provided by your Host. If you are a Dial-In user (server), enter your own password.

PPPAuthentication Type: Default is Auto if you want the router to determine the authentication type to use, or else manually specify CHAP (Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol) or PAP (Password Authentication Protocol) if you know which type the server is using (when acting as a client), or else the authentication type you want clients connecting to you to use (when acting as a server). When using PAP, the password is sent unencrypted, whilst CHAP encrypts the password before sending, and also allows for challenges at different periods to ensure that the client has not been replaced by an intruder.

Idle Time: Auto-disconnect the VPN connection when there is no activity on the connection for a predetermined period of time. 0 means this connection is always on.

Click Apply after changing settings.

IPSec: Enable for enhancing your LT2P VPN security.
