Configuring the L2TP LNS Peer Interface

The peer interface connects the LNS to the cloud towards the LACs so that IP packets can be exchanged between the tunnel endpoints. MPLS and aggregated Ethernet can also be used to reach the LACs.

Note: On MX Series routers, you must configure the peer interface on an MPC.

To configure the LNS peer interface:

  1. Specify the interface name.
    [edit interfaces]user@host# edit interface-name
  2. Enable VLANs.
    [edit interfaces interface-name]user@host# set vlan-tagging
  3. Specify the logical interface, bind a VLAN tag ID to the interface, and configure the address family and the IP address for the logical interface.
    [edit interfaces interface-name]user@host# edit unit logical-unit-number[edit interfaces interface-name unit logical-unit-number]user@host# set vlan-id numberuser@host# set family family address ip-address

    Note: The IPv6 address family is not supported as a tunnel endpoint.
