# LNS Service Configuration Mode Commands

The LNS Service Configuration Mode is used to create and manage L2TP services within contexts on the system. L2TP Network Server (LNS) services facilitate tunneling with peer L2TP Access Concentrators (LACs).

IMPORTANT:

The commands or keywords/variables that are available are dependent on platform type, product version, and installed license(s).

Syntax

    authentication { { [ allow-noauth ] [ chap chap_priority ] [ mschap mschap_priority ] [ pap pap_priority ] } | msid-auth }

allow-noauth

Default: Disabled

Configures the LNS to allow PPP sessions access even though they have not been authenticated. This command issued by itself causes the LNS not to attempt authentication for any PPP sessions.

When the allow-noauth option is used in conjunction with commands specifying other authentication protocols and priorities to use, then if attempts to use those protocols fail, the system treats the allow-noauth option as the lowest priority.

If no authentication is allowed, the system constructs an Network Access Identifier (NAI) to provide accounting records for the PPP session.
chap chap_priority

Default: 1

Configures the LNS to attempt to use Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (CHAP) to authenticate the PPP session.

A chap_priority must be specified in conjunction with this option. Priorities specify which authentication protocol should be attempted first, second, third and so on.

chap_priority must be an integer from 1 through 1000. The lower the integer, the higher the preference. CHAP is enabled by default as the highest preference.
mschap mschap_priority

Default: Disabled

Configures the LNS to attempt to use the Microsoft Challenge Handshake Authentication Protocol (MSCHAP) to authenticate the PPP session.

A mschap_priority must be specified in conjunction with this option. Priorities specify which authentication protocol should be attempted first, second, third and so on.

mschap_priority must be an integer from 1 through 1000. The lower the integer, the higher the preference.
pap pap_priority

Default: 2

This option configures the LNS to attempt to use the Password Authentication Protocol (PAP) to authenticate the PPP session.

A pap_priority must be specified in conjunction with this option. Priorities specify which authentication protocol should be attempted first, second, third and so on.

pap_priority must be an integer from 1 through 1000. The lower the integer, the higher the preference. PAP is enabled by default as the second highest preference.
msid-auth

Default: Disabled

This option configures the LNS to attempt to authenticate the PPP session based on the Mobile Station Identity (MSID).
Usage:

Use to specify how the LNS service should handle authentication and what protocols to use. The flexibility is given to configure this option to accommodate the fact that not every mobile will implement the same authentication protocols.
By default LNS authentication options are set as follows:

- allow-noauth disabled
- chap enabled with a priority of 1
- mschap disabled
- msid-auth disabled
- pap enabled with a priority of 2

IMPORTANT:

At least one of the keywords must be used to complete the command.
Example:
The following command configures the LNS service to allow no authentication for PPP sessions and would perform accounting using the default NAI-construct of username@domain:

    authentication allow-noauth

The following command configures the system to attempt authentication first using CHAP, then MSCHAP, and finally PAP. If the allow-noauth command was also issued, when all attempts to authenticate the subscriber using these protocols failed, then the subscriber would be allowed access:

    authentication chap
    1 mschap 2 pap 3

avp map called-number apn

clear-on-valid-packet

Default: disabled

Configures the service to reset the reneg-limit and drop-limit counters after receipt of a properly addressed packet.
drop-limit num

Default: 10

Sets the number of allowed source violations within a detection period before forcing a call disconnect. If num is not specified, the value is set to the default.

num can be an integer from 1 through 1000000.
period secs

Default: 120

The length of time (in seconds) for a source violation detection period to last. drop-limit and reneg-limit counters are decremented each time this value is reached.

The counters are decremented in this manner: reneg-limit counter is reduced by one (1) each time the period value is reached until the counter is zero (0); drop-limit counter is halved each time the period value is reached until the counter is zero (0). If secs is not specified, the value is set to the default.

secs can be an integer from 1 through 1000000.
reneg-limit num

Default: 5

Sets the number of allowed source violations within a detection period before forcing a PPP renegotiation. If num is not specified, the value is set to the default.

num can be an integer from 1 through 1000000.
Usage:

This function allows the operator to configure a network to prevent problems such as when a user gets handed back and forth between two PDSNs a number of times during a handoff scenario.

When a subscriber packet is received with a source address violation, the system increments both the IP source-violation reneg-limit and drop-limit counters and starts the timer for the IP-source violation period. Every subsequent packet received with a bad source address during the IP-source violation period causes the reneg-limit and drop-limit counters to increment.

For example, if reneg-limit is set to 5, the system allows five packets with a bad source address (source violations), but on the fifth packet, it re-negotiates PPP.

If the drop-limit is set to 10, the above process of receiving five source violations and renegotiating PPP occurs only once. After the second 5-source violation, the call is dropped. The period timer continues to count throughout this process.

If at any time before the call is dropped, the configured source-violation period is exceeded, the counters for drop-limit is decremented by half and reneg-limit is decremented by 1. See period definition above.
Example:
To set the maximum number of source violations before dropping a call to 100, enter the following command:

    ip source-violation drop-limit 100

    keepalive-interval seconds

    no keepalive-interval

no

Disables the generation of Hello keepalive messages on the tunnel.
seconds

Default: 60

Specifies the number of seconds to wait before sending a Hello keepalive message as an integer from 30 through 2147483648.
Usage:

Use this command to set the amount of time to wait before sending a Hello keepalive message or disable the generation of Hello keepalive messages completely. A keepalive mechanism is employed by L2TP in order to differentiate tunnel outages from extended periods of no control or data activity on a tunnel. This is accomplished by injecting Hello control messages after a specified period of time has elapsed since the last data or control message was received on a tunnel. As for any other control message, if the Hello message is not reliably delivered then the tunnel is declared down and is reset. The transport reset mechanism along with the injection of Hello messages ensures that a connectivity failure between the LNS and the LAC is detected at both ends of a tunnel.
Example:
Use the following command to set the Hello keepalive message interval to 120 seconds:

    keepalive-interval 120

Use the following command to disable the generation of Hello keepalive messages:

    no keepalive-interval

local-receive-window

Syntax

    max-retransmission integer

integer

Default: 5

Specifies the maximum number of retransmissions of a control message to a peer as an integer from 1 through 10.
Usage:

Each tunnel maintains a queue of control messages to be transmitted to its peer. After a period of time passes without acknowledgement, a message is retransmitted. Each subsequent retransmission of a message employs an exponential backoff interval. For example; if the first retransmission occurs after 1 second, the next retransmission occurs after 2 seconds has elapsed, then the next after 4 seconds. If no peer response is detected after the number of retransmissions set by this command, the tunnel and all sessions within are cleared.

Use this command to set the maximum number of retransmissions that the LAC service sends before closing the tunnel and all sessions within. it.
Example:
The following command sets the maximum number of retransmissions of a control message to a peer to 7:

    max-retransmissions 7

Syntax

    [ default | no ] single-port-mode

no

Disable single port mode
Usage:

Use this command to control the L2TP LNS tunnel local UDP port assignment mode. If single-port-mode is enabled, the LNS-service uses the standard UDP port (port 1701) for the life of the incoming tunnel. Otherwise, it assigns a new local UDP port number for a tunnel when it responds to a tunnel create request received on the standard port number. This is done for load distributing the tunnel processing between multiple tasks within the system to increase the capacity and performance. Even though all L2TP LACs are required to support such dynamic port assignments during tunnel establishments, there exist some LACs that do not support port assignment other than port 1701. This single-port-mode feature can be enabled to support such LAC peers. This configuration must be applied for the LNS-Service before the bind command is executed.
