3931: Layer Two Tunneling Protocol - Version 3 (L2TPv3).

HTML TXT PS PDF

This document describes "version 3" of the Layer Two Tunneling Protocol (L2TPv3). L2TPv3 defines the base control protocol and encapsulation for tunneling multiple Layer 2 connections between two IP nodes. Additional documents detail the specifics for each data link type being emulated.
