Firebrick using L2TP over dongle: Difference between revisions

=Overview=

Some customers prefer to use a dongle as their main connection in areas where ADSL speeds are particularly poor.

People may find that CGNAT or other limiting factors within the cellular network break certain services such as SIP. We can get around this using L2TP.

 

The config below is a small modification to the config generated by the FireBrick itself.

The idea is to set the ''payload-table'' for L2TP to table 1, and to then put the LAN interface on this table.

 

<port name="USB" ports="" dongle="Dongle"/>

<interface name="LAN" port="LAN" table="1" comment="Default LAN interface">

<rule name="Allow Firebrick" source-interface="self" comment="Allow all from the FireBrick to LAN"/>

</rule-set>
