.SH NAME
l2tpd \- provide L2TP (layer two tunneling protocol) encapsulated PPP connections
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B l2tpd
[
.B \-f
.I configuration file
]
.SH DESCRIPTION

.B l2tpd
is an implementation of Layer Two Tunneling Protocol for UNIX systems.

Most aspects of the server's operation are controled by its configuration
file (see
.BR l2tpd.conf (5)).
This man page discusses only the operation of the server itself, which only
takes one option.

The server can be controled (somewhat minimally) at runtime with the file
.I /var/run/l2tp-control

.SH OPTIONS

.B \-f
.I configuration file

.RS 3
Selects a different configuration file from the default, set at compile
time (typically /etc/l2tp/l2tpd.conf).
See
.BR l2tpd.conf (5)
for more information.
.RE
.SH FILES

.B /etc/l2tp/l2tpd.conf
.RS 3
Configuration file for l2tpd, specifies virtually all information for its
operation.
.RE

.B /etc/l2tp/l2tp-secrets
.RS 3
Secrets used for challenge authentication and information hiding.
.RE

.B /var/run/l2tp-control
.RS 3
Can be used for runtime controlling of the l2tp server.

.SH NOTES AND LIMITATIONS

.B l2tpd
is an experimental program and does not entirely implement the draft L2TP
specification.  

.B pppd
version 2.3.3 or higher is required.

.B l2tpd 
must be restarted when the configuration is modified before it will read
its new configuration.  This limitation is planned to be removed.

.SH SIGNALS

Sending a 
.B SIGUSR2
signal to l2tpd (killall -SIGUSR2 l2tpd) will cause the server to dump
a table of its running configuration as well as the status of any open 
tunnels and calls.

.SH BUGS
Does not implement the entire l2tp specification.
