        Short version: IPsec Xauth+PSK works, the others have not been tested or shown to be working by anyone I've heard from.

        L2TP is supported on its own, but not L2TP+IPsec. L2TP on its own offers no encryption, just tunneling.

        OpenVPN is supported via an app, and is the best VPN choice available.

          thanks your answer!
          i just setup complete all the ipsec VPN.
          but i still can't setup the L2TP/IPSec PSK or L2TP/IPSec RSA VPN
          do you know pfsense2.0.2 support the function?

          thanks, ray!

            No, L2TP+IPsec does not work on 2.0.x or 2.1 even.

            We might add support for L2TP+IPsec before 2.1 ships but it's not 100% certain.
