We need to enter the IP address of the VPN server and the credentials for access. You should configure all those options printed in blue and framed in red. Click on the button and you can see drop-down menu with all available PPP interfaces.Ĭhoose the L2TP client option from the list. Here are all PPP connection on the device. Everything can be done in one window or with the single command line.Ĭlick on the PPP menu item. On Mikrotik devices that runs RouterOS version 6.x, you can set the L2TP/IPSec VPN connection in a minute. Therefore, we will show here setup for the one RouterOS 6.36.3 device and one 5.26. The setup procedure depends on the Mikrotik RouterOS version. In the second step, they will use this link to establish the VPN connection to the Contoso router. In the first step, both Mikrotik routers will establish the PPPoE connection. These two Mikrotik devices will use the same mechanism as Windows clients in order to connect to the network. In today’s scenario, we will add two more devices in our virtual network.
You can find the following tutorials related to the L2TP/IPSec VPN clients on my blog: Furthermore, we need to use a very simple IPSec policies as we are using the IPSec tunnel in the transport mode. In the other hand, the IPSec part will protect our tunnel with the strong encryption. Using the routing tunnel means that we can assign the IP address to it and use it as any other network interface. We can see the benefits from this combination. Using the L2TP/IPSec VPN connection, you will have in the same time the routable tunnel and the full power of IPSec encryption.
The most common scenario is that you want to connect a remote network with a main network. Here is a new scenario – we may have a need to use another Mikrotik device as the VPN client. In this scenario, we are using either Windows clients or mobile devices based on Android or Apple iOS operating systems. In the previous post we have shown a Mikrotik router as a L2TP/IPSec server.
