L2TP Parameters

Parameter: Ack Timeout (milliseconds)

Path: Configuration Manager > Protocols > IP > L2TP > L2TP Configuration

Default: 250

Options: 1 to 350 milliseconds

Function: Specifies the maximum number of milliseconds that can elapse before the LNS sends an acknowledgment to the LAC that it received an L2TP control message, such as a tunnel authentication or session control message.

Instructions: If you are unsure of the stability of the connection or the L2TP session, set this parameter to a number smaller than the default. Otherwise, accept the default.

MIB Object ID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.23.2.1.10

Parameter: LNS System Name

Path: Configuration Manager > Protocols > IP > L2TP > L2TP Configuration

Default: BayRS

Options: The router’s system name or any name you specify

Function: Specifies the name of the LNS. This name applies to the router, not just the slot with the LNS interface.

Instructions: Site Manager automatically enters the name from the router’s system information. You can modify it, if you choose. If no system name is provided, the router uses BayRS.

MIB Object ID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.23.2.1.12

Parameter: RADIUS Primary Server IP Address

Path: Configuration Manager > Protocols > IP > L2TP > L2TP Configuration

Default: None

Options: Any 32-bit IP address

Function: Specifies the primary RADIUS server for user authentication.

Instructions: Enter the IP address of the RADIUS server. If the RADIUS server is already configured, Site Manager automatically supplies the address.

MIB Object ID: 1.3.6.1.4.1.18.3.5.22.2.1.3
