Monitor L2TP Sessions

The Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) allows PPP frames to be tunneled (encapsulated within another protocol) across an IP network from the PortMaster that answers the call to another PortMaster that processes the PPP frames.

You can check PPP sessions that are tunneled by L2TP that either originate or terminate at this PortMaster. To check the status of L2TP sessions, click Monitor==>VPN==>L2TP Sessions.

Select a modem and use the Reset Counters button to restart the increase of values in PMVision only, not on the PortMaster. Use Restore Counters to restore the counters to their real-time values.

To view VPN L2TP Sessions simultaneously with other options in the PMVision tree, click New Window.
