Define the following Session parameters:

Select OK to save the changes and overrides to the T2TP Tunnel screen. Select Reset to revert the
screen to its last saved configuration.

Select the Manual Session tab.

After a successful tunnel connection and establishment, individual sessions can be created.
Each session is a single data stream. After successful session establishment, data
corresponding to that session (pseudowire) can be transferred. If a session is down, the
pseudowire associated with it is shut down as well.

Name

Enter a 31 character maximum session name. There is no idle timeout for a tunnel. A tunnel is not
usable without a session and a subsequent session name. The tunnel is closed when the last
session tunnel session is closed.

Pseudowire ID

Define a psuedowire ID for this session. A pseudowire is an emulation of a layer 2 point-to-point
connection over a packet-switching network (PSN). A pseudowire was developed out of the
necessity to encapsulate and tunnel layer 2 protocols across a layer 3 network.

Traffic Source Type

Lists the type of traffic tunnelled in this session.

Traffic Source Value

Define a VLAN range to include in the tunnel session. Available VLAN ranges are from 1 - 4,094.

Native VLAN

Select this option to provide a VLAN ID that will not be tagged in tunnel establishment and packet
transfer.
