2.5.  Authentication, Authorization and Accounting (AAA)

   L2TPv2 supports optional mutual Control Channel authentication and
   leverages the optional mutual PPP per-session authentication.  L2TPv2
   is well integrated with AAA solutions (such as RADIUS) for both
   authentication and authorization.  Most L2TPv2 implementations
   available in the market support logging of authentication and
   authorization events.

DBN:  This paragraph contains an assertion about the integration of existing
L2TPv2 implementations with RADIUS implementations.  I'm not in a position
to validate or refute that assertion from personal knowledge, but it seems
reasonable on its face.

   L2TPv2 integration with RADIUS accounting (RADIUS Accounting
   extension for tunnel [RFC2867]) allows the collection and reporting
   of L2TPv2 Softwire usage statistics.

DBN:  Sure.  RADIUS Accounting does support usage statistics reporting for
all kinds of provisioned sessions, based on connect time and data transfer.
