IPsec Tunnels with Transport Mode for L2TP

The encapsulation mode of the IPsec tunnel in the example above is set to Transport. With
transport mode, the following recommendations should be followed:

The AddRouteToRemoteNet setting should be disabled. If the administrator has an indepth
understanding of what this setting does with transport mode, it could be enabled.

If AddRouteToRemoteNet is enabled with transport mode and the OuterPBRTable is set to
the same routing table as the RoutingTable , cOS Core will give a warning message and
disable AddRouteToRemoteNet automatically.

The reason for this is that if it is allowed, IKE/ESP traffic will be routed into its own tunnel after
tunnel establishment. This means that a traffic loop will be created so that no ESP/IKE packets
will get sent to the tunnel's remote endpoint.
