Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : accel-pptp Version : 0.8.3 Upstream Author : Dmitry Kozlov <x...@mail.ru> * URL : http://accel-pptp.sf.net/ * License : GPL-2+ Programming Lang: C Description : kernel accelerated pptp and l2tp implementation
Core features are: * PPTP server * L2TPv2 server * PPPoE server * Radius including CoA/DM(PoD) * Built-in shaper (tbf) * Command line interface (telnet) * SNMP agent * IPv6 including builtin Neighbor Discovery and DHCPv6 A good reason for including this package or the related accel-pppd package in Debian is that the available pptp implementations in Debian are userspace based. Thus every transferred packet causes a context switch and therefore latency. The kernel implementation (available in wheezy's 3.2 kernel for instance) solves this issue, but yet lacks a userspace in Debian. This userspace is accel-pptp or accel-pppd.
