Follow these steps to remove the VPN. Commands must be run as root, or with sudo.

Steps

First step

service ipsec stop
service xl2tpd stop
rm -rf /usr/local/sbin/ipsec /usr/local/libexec/ipsec
rm -f /etc/init/ipsec.conf /lib/systemd/system/ipsec.service \
      /etc/init.d/ipsec /usr/lib/systemd/system/ipsec.service

Second step

apt-get purge xl2tpd

CentOS/RHEL

yum remove xl2tpd

Third step

Ubuntu/Debian

Edit /etc/iptables.rules and remove unneeded rules.
Your original rules (if any) are backed up as /etc/iptables.rules.old-date-time.
In addition, edit /etc/iptables/rules.v4 if the file exists.

CentOS/RHEL

Edit /etc/sysconfig/iptables and remove unneeded rules.
Your original rules (if any) are backed up as /etc/sysconfig/iptables.old-date-time.

Fourth step

Edit /etc/sysctl.conf and remove the lines after # Added by hwdsl2 VPN script.
Edit /etc/rc.local and remove the lines after # Added by hwdsl2 VPN script. DO NOT remove exit 0 (if any).
