L2TP/ipsec from Windows

[Frank_in_HH]

Hi.

I try to connect from Windows 7 (builtin Client) with L2TP/ipsec to pfsense 2.0.1 amd64.
I followed certain docs but allways stick in phase 1.
Is there a bug in the implementation?
Is there an official tutorial which works I can follow?

It's been discussed many times, just search the forum.

In short, neither L2TP/IPsec nor IKEv2 are supported by pfSense.

Didn't found it in the forum.

What I found is this:

S.o. managed it to work.

Is it planned to work in the future?

Supporting L2TP/IPsec (in a way that will allow remote access of Windows clients) under FreeBSD requires some work, check http://forums.freebsd.org/showthread.php?t=26755 for the details.
