L2TP from Customers to AAISP

This is used to connect in to AAISP over a third-party internet connection. This gives you your usual AAISP IP (4 and 6) blocks and access to the internet as if you were conencted via a normal DSL circuit.

• Hostname: AAISP
• Endopint: l2tp.aa.net.uk
• Username & Password as supplied
• Plain L2TP without any IPsec
• MSCHAPv2 authentication

MTU

You may have to set a lower MTU to accommodate the host ISP, possible as low as 1462 (or lower for some ISPs). In theory fragments will work to allow 1500 MTU on our service, but fragments are inefficient, and if everyone sends fragmented packets that could degrade the service.
