Layer 2 Tunneling Protocol Version 3 is a draft version of L2TP[?] that is proposed as an alternative protocol to MPLS for encapsulation of multiprotocol[?] Layer 2 communications traffic over IP networks.
L2TPv3 can be regarded as being to MPLS what MPLS is to ATM: a simplified version of the same concept, with much of the goodness achieved with a fraction of the effort, at the cost of losing some technical features considered less important in the market.
In the case of L2TPv3, the features lost are traffic engineering features considered important in MPLS.

 News @ Cisco: Sprint - Layer 2/Layer 3 Services Converged over Common IP Backbone Via L2TPv3 in Cisco IOS Software
Using L2TPv3, Cisco 7000 Series Routers and Cisco 12000 Series Routers at the ingress to the SprintLink network encapsulate the Layer 2 payload with an L2TPv3 and IP header.
L2TPv3 reduces complexity as the need for edge routers to support every enterprise VPN routing table and Layer 3 routing environment is eliminated.
L2TPv3 allows service providers and large enterprises with native IP core networks to integrate and deliver high-speed Layer 2 tunneling or VPN services from their IP infrastructure.

 Light at the end of the L2TPv3 tunnel
L2TPv3, an extension of the L2TP, is a stateless protocol with no inherent signaling or keep-alive mechanism.
L2TPv3 extends L2TP by letting it run on higher-speed devices such as routers because of reduced overhead and the related decrease in processing chores.
And because L2TPv3 adds no new requirements to the IP transport infrastructure, it is inherently easier and simpler to implement and support, because network staff is familiar with IP.

is a large number and, as long as it is random, the cookie makes L2TPv3 impervious to brute-force spoofing attacks, where the attacker tries to inject packets into an active session.
At Gigabit, or 10 Gigabit speeds, the number of bytes used by a well-designed protocol is not really an issue, as long as the implementation runs in hardware.

 L2TP - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Published in 1999 as proposed standard RFC 2661, L2TP has its origins primarily in two older tunneling protocols for PPP: Cisco's Layer 2 Forwarding (L2F) and Microsoft's Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP).
A new version of this protocol, L2TPv3, was published as proposed standard RFC 3931 in 2005.
L2TPv3 provides additional security features, improved encapsulation, and the ability to carry data links other than simply PPP over an IP network (e.g., Frame Relay, Ethernet, ATM, etc).
