Re: (ASCEND) VPN to a cisco?



The Max has supported L2TP since 6.0 and updates to the current L2TP draft
in 6.1. I don't know if Cisco supports it yet, but you ought to be able to
get it in a beta. The Max can be either endpoint in an L2TP tunnel.

So Leon would just need L2TP software from Cisco to handle the tunnel.
