Please enable L2TPv3 support and related modules

[Martijn vdS]

Hello,

Currently, the kernel doesn't include support for L2TP v3.

These are the relevant kernel options:
CONFIG_L2TP_V3 <Y>
CONFIG_L2TP_ETH <M>
CONFIG_L2TP_IP <M>

Debian has had it enabled since Squeeze.

Martijn.

Triaged: Just a config change and reporter states what they want, seems reasonable if it works
Low: It's just something new, not apparently a regression

I'm administrating an OpenStack cluster with machines running Ubuntu 12.04.
Is it possible to enable l2tpv3 also on Ubuntu 12.04 please?

It would be a key tecnology to operate cloud federation between distant clouds over the Internet.
Currently I am forced to set up a gateway host with Fedora, that supports l2tpv3 in the ip command.
I'm new to the community so please be kind :)
