have a given name which will be used when using the configuration FIFO 
(normaly /var/run/l2tpd\-control). See l2tpd.8  for more details.

The specific given name 
.B default
will specifies parameters applicables for all the following sections.
.SH "GLOBAL SECTION"
.TP 
.B auth file

acting as a LNS. The format is the same as the 
.B ip range 
option.

.TP

If set to yes, the private AVP's will be used by l2tpd. To get more information

.TP 
.B local ip

.TP

.TP 
.B challenge
If set to yes, challenge authenticate peer (FIXME)
