FireBrick using L2TP as main connection: Difference between revisions

It is possible to have slow ADSL (if you're a long way from the exchange) but to have a faster (fibre) link to use.
In this case, you might want to keep an ADSL or two around for backups in case the fibre goes down.
 
If the fibre is provided by a third party, you could use [[L2TP]] over your main connection to avoid IPs changing if the fibre breaks.
 
This is a rough example for such a config, using NAT on the LAN and [[L2TP]] to AA as the main connection:
 
<syntaxhighlight lang="xml">
<pre>
<port name="LAN"
ports="1"/>
set-nat="true"/>
</rule-set>
</syntaxhighlight>
</pre>
