I've posted a summary of current NetworkManager-l2tp known issues and workarounds for Ubuntu and Debian here : https://github.com/nm-l2tp/network-manager-l2tp/issues/12
I haven't created a new network-manager-l2tp PPA because because of the strongSwan AppArmor name space issue involving NetworkManager and also some Ubuntu 16.04 users have had an issues with the system xl2tpd, but not with a locally built copy. Unfortunately I haven't been able to reproduce the xl2tpd issue since I changed computers a couple of months ago. I hope to submit a network-manager-l2tp package to Debian once the strongSwan AppArmor issue has been resolved. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/264691 Title: Please add NM option for connecting to L2TP IPSEC VPN Status in NetworkManager: Unknown Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in network-manager package in Debian: Invalid Bug description: Binary package hint: network-manager Missing feature: You cannot connect to a (Microsoft) L2TP IPSEC VPN with Network Manager.
