outgoing SPI value are different. However, the Incoming SPI value must match the Outgoing SPI value at the other end of the tunnel, and vice versa. The connection status on the remote endpoint of this tunnel is as the following figure shows. The SPI value is obtained via auto-negotiation. 3.5.3 L2TP/PPTP Layer 2 VPN tunneling protocol consists of L2TP (Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol) and PPTP (Point to Point Tunneling Protocol).
