Overview

We use L2TP for various things! For example:

AAISP Data SIMs can be relayed on to your L2TP server
AAISP DSL lines can be relayed on to your L2TP server
You can connect in to AAISP over an L2TP tunnel from a non-AAISP internet connection, either as a failover from your DSL line or for permanent internet access.

Our own FireBrick router can be used as an LNS or L2TP client - from single sites up to full gigabit LNS capabilities for ISPs.

Incoming L2TP Service

Used to connect in to AAISP over a third-party internet connection, ie l2tp.aa.net.uk

L2TP Handover/Relay

Relay a data connection from a mobile SIM or a DSL line to your own L2TP server. This enables you to manage the IP addressing, connectivity yourself.

-L2TP settings are set by staff, so please do contact them for any changes or setup. The information that would be requested is:
-*Target IP (with an optional backup IP) - the L2TP server at your side

-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: l2tp.aa.net.uk
-* Plain L2TP without any IPsec
-* MSCHAPv2 authentication
