L2TP VPN safe?

PepijnDeneut

Hi,

We want to implement L2TP VPN. Is this safe enough because almost every option gives a "not secure" bang in the phase 1 and Phase 2?

    Hello Pepijin,

    Thank you for contacting the Sophos Community!

    For a more secure setting for L2TP you can try for DH, DH14, for everything encryption at least AES128, and for everything authentication at least SHA2 256. The stronger the encryption protocols you use the lower the speed/performance. 

    This protocol uses port 500 by default, which is blocked by many ISP at the home user level, you could try using SSL VPN and change the port it used to connect to work around this potential issue.

    Regards,
