+ Layer Two Tunneling Protocol
+
+ From RFC 2661 <http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2661.txt>.
+
+ L2TP facilitates the tunneling of packets across an
+ intervening network in a way that is as transparent as
+ possible to both end-users and applications.
+
+ L2TP is often used to tunnel PPP traffic over IP
+ tunnels. One IP tunnel may carry thousands of individual PPP
+ connections. L2TP is also used as a VPN protocol, popular
+ with home workers to connect to their offices.
+
+ L2TPv3 allows other protocols as well as PPP to be carried
+ over L2TP tunnels. L2TPv3 is defined in RFC 3931
+ <http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3931.txt>.
+
+ The kernel component handles only L2TP data packets: a
+ userland daemon handles L2TP the control protocol (tunnel
+ and session setup). One such daemon is OpenL2TP
+ (http://openl2tp.org/).
+
+ If you don't need L2TP, say N. To compile all L2TP code as
+ modules, choose M here.
+

+
+ If unsure, say 'Y'.
+
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module
+ will be called l2tp_debugfs.

+ Layer Two Tunneling Protocol Version 3
+
+ From RFC 3931 <http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3931.txt>.
+
+ The Layer Two Tunneling Protocol (L2TP) provides a dynamic
+ mechanism for tunneling Layer 2 (L2) "circuits" across a
+ packet-oriented data network (e.g., over IP). L2TP, as
+ originally defined in RFC 2661, is a standard method for
+ tunneling Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) [RFC1661] sessions.
+ L2TP has since been adopted for tunneling a number of other
+ L2 protocols, including ATM, Frame Relay, HDLC and even raw
+ ethernet frames.
+
+ If you are connecting to L2TPv3 equipment, or you want to
+ tunnel raw ethernet frames using L2TP, say Y here. If
+ unsure, say N.
+
+config L2TP_IP
+ tristate "L2TP IP encapsulation for L2TPv3"
+ depends on L2TP_V3
+ help
+ Support for L2TP-over-IP socket family.
+
+ The L2TPv3 protocol defines two possible encapsulations for
+ L2TP frames, namely UDP and plain IP (without UDP). This
+ driver provides a new L2TPIP socket family with which
+ userspace L2TPv3 daemons may create L2TP/IP tunnel sockets
+ when UDP encapsulation is not required. When L2TP is carried
+ in IP packets, it used IP protocol number 115, so this port
+ must be enabled in firewalls.
+
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module
+ will be called l2tp_ip.
+
+config L2TP_ETH
+ tristate "L2TP ethernet pseudowire support for L2TPv3"
+ depends on L2TP_V3
+ help
+ Support for carrying raw ethernet frames over L2TPv3.
+
+ From RFC 4719 <http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc4719.txt>.
+
+ The Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol, Version 3 (L2TPv3) can be
+ used as a control protocol and for data encapsulation to set
+ up Pseudowires for transporting layer 2 Packet Data Units
+ across an IP network [RFC3931].
+
+ This driver provides an ethernet virtual interface for each
+ L2TP ethernet pseudowire instance. Standard Linux tools may
+ be used to assign an IP address to the local virtual
+ interface, or add the interface to a bridge.
+
+ If you are using L2TPv3, you will almost certainly want to
+ enable this option.
+
+ To compile this driver as a module, choose M here. The module
+ will be called l2tp_eth.
