VPN Netowrk+ Question
Alright, the question is as follows
24. What protocol is used to create virtual private networks over several types of networks including TCP/IP?
a. TCP
b. PPP
c. PPTP
d. L2TP
I chose C and got it wrong, But I thought that both C and D were both VPN protocols?

My first guess would be D, but yes PPTP is another VPN type protocol.
Did it give an answer other than D? -

D is the only correct answer and babyxxx explained why: over several types of networks.
PPTP, answer C, works only over TCP/IP networks and not over several types of networks including TCP/IP hence is not a correct answer.
The question is not "which are VPN protocols" but which one works over over several types of networks, including TCP/IP. And that's L2TP, because in addition to IP networks, L2TP supports tunneling through various other types of point-to-point networks including Frame Relay, X.25, and ATM.
