Note: The default Windows XP L2TP traffic policy does not allow L2TP traffic without IPSec encryption. You can disable default behavior by editing the Windows XP Registry as described in the following steps. See the Microsoft documentation for editing the Windows Registry.

7Use the registry editor (regedit) to locate the following key in the registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\Rasman\ Parameters

8Add the following registry value to this key:

Value Name: ProhibitIpSec

Data Type: REG_DWORD

Value: 1

9Save your changes and restart the computer for the changes to take effect.

You must add the ProhibitIpSec registry value to each Windows XP-based endpoint computer of an L2TP or IPSec connection to prevent the automatic filter for L2TP and IPSec traffic from being created. When the ProhibitIpSec registry value is set to 1, your Windows XP-based computer does not create the automatic filter that uses CA authentication. Instead, it checks for a local or active directory IPSec policy.
