CentOS 6.3 comes with Openswan which allows you to setup IPsec connections. More info on the Openswan website: https://www.openswan.org/projects/openswan/ There is also Libreswan which is a recent fork of Openswan. Current release is 3.0 and it has a long list of fixes over the latest Openswan release (2.6.38) so might be interesting to look at too: http://www.libreswan.org For L2TP there is xl2tpd: https://github.com/xelerance/xl2tpd which iirc is available from the EPEL repo.
