2

Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) properties.

3

Double-click the Advanced tab.

Parameters

8

Add the following registry value to this key:
Value Name: ProhibitIpSec
Data Type: REG_DWORD
Value: 1

9

Save the changes and restart the computer for the changes to take effect.
You must add the ProhibitIpSec registry value to each Windows 2000-based

endpoint computer of an L2TP or IPSec connection to prevent the automatic filter for
L2TP and IPSec traffic from being created. When the ProhibitIpSec registry value

is set to 1, your Windows 2000-based computer does not create the automatic filter
that uses CA authentication. Instead, it checks for a local or active directory IPSec
policy.

To connect to the L2TP VPN

1

Start the dialup connection that you configured in the previous procedure.

2

Enter your L2TP VPN User Name and Password.

3

Select Connect.

Note: If a RADIUS server is used for authentication do not select Require data encryption.
L2TP encryption is not supported for RADIUS server authentication.

Note: The default Windows 2000 L2TP traffic policy does not allow L2TP traffic without IPSec
encryption. You can disable default behavior by editing the Windows 2000 Registry as
described in the following steps. See the Microsoft documentation for editing the Windows
Registry.
