Linux VPN choices for China?

BarryG
Hi,

China (Great Firewall) is now blocking SSL VPNs, or at least OpenVPN, according to several sources; I'm going there in a few weeks and would like to be able to use a netbook running Linux, without having 3/4 of the internet blocked.

One site, How To Bypass The Great Firewall Of China 2014 - GreyCoder, recommends using L2TP.

1. has anyone tried the L2TP over IPSEC connection in Linux?

2. from China, recently?

3. Looking at https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/L2TP/IPsec_VPN_client_setup, there appear to be quite a few settings to get L2TP working...
Is there a recommended config for using OpenSwan (or some other Linux client) with the UTM?

Thank you,
Barry

    I've spoken to more than one customer using REDs from within china in the last year. I don't know much about what the great firewall is or isn't blocking, but it seems that at least recently, RED has worked well for users.
