Next, you must configure a working L2TP connection. This subsection contains instructions on how to do just that.

New L2TP instances can be created from the '''Services → VPN → L2TP''' section of the router's WebUI. Select a role (Server or Client), enter a custom name and click the "Add" button to create a new instance. Then click the "Edit" button located next to the newly created instance to enter its configuration page.
Although technically it doesn't matter on which router you create the Server or the Client, we recommend that for the sake of clarity and easier management you create the L2TP Server on the same router where you created the IPsec Server and the L2TP Client on the same router where you created the IPsec Client.
