Hi,
I have put my L2TP implementation up as a project on Sourceforge:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/rp-l2tp/
I am actively looking for someone to take over maintainership of this
project. Current status:
- L2TP daemon works on Linux with pppd version 2.4.1 or later
- L2TP daemon can act as a LAC or LNS.
- Interoperability with Cisco routers has been verified.
- Interoperability with http://www.l2tpd.org/ has been verified.
- User interface for creating/tearing down sessions is... uh... primitive.
Why (yet another) implementation?
- There is a kernel-mode implementation at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/l2tp/ It appears to be stagnant, and the
code is very complex.
- There is a user-mode implementation at http://www.l2tpd.org/. The original
code base suffered from readability problems which (I believe) has slowed
development significantly.
- A commercial client needed a reliable L2TP implementation in a hurry, and
the quickest way I could get one was to write it. I believe rp-l2tp
is the smallest, simplest and cleanest of the three implementations. Take
a look for yourself and decide.
Regards,
David.
