    As part of the remote access services run at the Technion, few servers are operated which 'talk' the above mentioned protocols of which the recommended protocol is L2TP. It is possible and even desired to define a second protocol so in case one of the protocols doesn't work, the other can be used as backup.
    Some 'finger rules' in choosing the preferred protocol:

    • Use L2TP for Windows 200, XP or 2003

    • Use PPTP for older operating systems

    • Use PPTP if you have an advanced operating system but you must connect to your work place with the IPSec protocol.

    Each remote connection to the Technion network must use an OTP device. Passwords generated by the card are valid in local systems for two minutes which more then enough to complete the identification procedure.
