Bias-Free Language

The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

Introduction

A virtual private dial-up network (VPDN) allows a private network dial in service to span across to remote access servers (defined as the L2TP Access Concentrator [LAC]). When a Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) client dials into a LAC, the LAC determines that it should forward that PPP session on to an L2TP Network Server (LNS) for that client, which then authenticates the user and starts the PPP negotiation. Once PPP setup has completed, all frames are sent through the LAC to the client and the LNS.

This sample configuration allows you to use TACACS+ authentication with Virtual Private Dial-Up Networks (VPDNs). The LAC queries the TACACS+ server, determines which LNS to forward the user, and establishes the appropriate tunnel.

For more information on VPDNs, refer to Understanding VPDN.

Prerequisites

Requirements

There are no specific requirements for this document.

Components Used

The information in this document is based on these software and hardware versions:

  • Cisco Secure ACS for UNIX version 2.x.x and later or TACACS+ freeware

  • Cisco IOS® Software Release 11.2 and later

The information in this document was created from the devices in a specific lab environment. All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If your network is live, make sure that you understand the potential impact of any command.

Conventions

For more information on document conventions, refer to the Cisco Technical Tips Conventions.

Configure

This section presents the information needed to configure the features described in this document.

In this example, the user is "jsmith@hp.com" with password "test". When "jsmith@hp.com" dials into the ISP router, the ISP router sends "hp.com" userid to the ISP TACACS+ server. The ISP server finds the "hp.com" userid and sends its tunnel-id ("isp"), the IP address of the home gateway (HGW) router (10.31.1.50), the Network Access Server (NAS) password ("hello"), and the gateway password ("there") back to the ISP router.

The ISP router initiates a tunnel and connects to the HGW router, which forwards the passwords for userid "hp-gw" ("there") and then userid "isp" ("hello") to the HGW TACACS+ server. Once the tunnels is established, the ISP router forwards to the HGW router the userid ("jsmith@hp.com") and password ("test") of the user that dials in. This user is authenticated on the HGW server. In the sample configurations in this document, the ISP router host name is "koala" and the HGW router host name is "thing_one".
