coffeeit/xl2tp_server repository overview

⁠Fast use:

⁠Launch container

$ docker run -d --name l2tpserver --network host --privileged coffeeit/xl2tp_server

⁠Clients

Server already pre configured to use this pairs of passwords. Choose in your client MS-CHAP authentication and MPPE encryption

⁠Strongly recommended using your own passwords. As an option --privileged is required to work, a weak password will make a security risk.

⁠Custom settings

Replace USERNAME and PASSWORD from your:

$ echo "USERNAME * PASSWORD *" > chap-secrets
$ # If you need more than one users
$ echo "USERNAME * PASSWORD *" >> chap-secrets
$ docker run -d --name l2tpserver --privileged --network host \
-v {local_path_to_chap-secrets}:/etc/ppp/chap-secrets coffeeit/xl2tp_server

⁠Connection without MPPE ( INSECURE )

Use the coffeeit/xl2tp_server:nomppe tag to avoid using encryption

$ docker run -d --name l2tpserver --privileged --network host \
-v {local_path_to_chap-secrets}:/etc/ppp/chap-secrets coffeeit/xl2tp_server:nomppe

⁠Start the container automatically

If you want to use this container as part of your permanent infrastructure, you should set it to restart automatically when Docker restarts or if it exits. This example uses the --restart=always flag to set a restart policy for the container.
