Using BCP to Create Layer 2 Networks Over the Internet, Faris Jawad (SMK IDN, Indonesia). Bridging a local area network through the internet is not a new idea. The interface of the MikroTik EOIP tunnel has made this easy for almost 18 years. One of the disadvantages of EOIP is that the endpoint IP address must be a public IP or tunnel must be built on a separate VPN tunnel, thus increasing packet overhead and adding additional configuration steps to create each tunnel. In this presentation, I will show BCP or Bridge Control Protocol, which is a method of bridging PPP tunnels, which provide Layer 2 connectivity (and when combined with L2TP), providing encryption in a single configuration step even when both devices have dynamic IP addresses.
