l2tpns - Layer 2 tunneling protocol network server (LNS)
.SH SYNOPSIS
.PP
\f[B]l2tpns\f[R] [-\f[B]d\f[R]] [-\f[B]v\f[R]] [-\f[B]c\f[R]
\f[I]file\f[R]] [-\f[B]h\f[R] \f[I]hostname\f[R]]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
\f[B]l2tpns\f[R] is a daemon for terminating layer 2 tunneling protocol
(L2TP: RFC2661) sessions.
.PP
\f[B]l2tpns\f[R] is a complete L2TP implementation.
It supports the LAC, LNS, PPPOE and DHCPv6 server.
.PP
Once running, \f[B]l2tpns\f[R] may be controlled by telnetting to port
23 on the machine running the daemon and with the \f[B]nsctl\f[R]
utility.
.SH OPTIONS
.PP
\f[B]-d\f[R] Detach from terminal and fork into the background.
By default l2tpns will stay in the foreground
.PP
\f[B]-v\f[R] Increase verbosity for debugging.
Can be used multiple times
.PP
\f[B]-c\f[R] \f[I]file\f[R] Specify configuration file
.PP
\f[B]-h\f[R] \f[I]hostname\f[R] Force hostname to \f[I]hostname\f[R]
