RE: Windows 2000 and Cicsco router interoperability



Paul, my comments were specific to the Remote Access VPN support that ships
in W2K Professional; and I believe all my comments are true.

W2K has no support for IKE-CFG, IKE-AUTH, IPCOMP, and requires PKI/Cert when
protecting L2TP (which is mandatory to create any 'useful' W2K VPN tunnel).

DUN = Dail-up-networking.

Steve.

Huh?  What about FQDN and similar identities?

Sure there is.  IPCOMP does just fine.  Better in fact, because it is
stateless.

What's a DUN?
