Configure VPNs in a Corporate Network, with

Optional Prioritisation of VoIP

How To |

Introduction

In this How To Note’s example, a headquarters office has VPNs to two branch offices and a

number of roaming VPN clients. The example illustrates the following possible components

that you could use in a corporate network:

VPNs between a headquarters office and roaming VPN clients, such as travellers’ laptops

VPNs between a branch office and roaming VPN clients, such as travellers’ laptops

a VPN between a headquarters office and a branch office with a fixed IP address, when the

branch office has an ADSL PPPoA connection to the internet

a VPN between a headquarters office and a branch office with a dynamically assigned IP

address, when the branch office has an ADSL PPPoEoA connection to the internet

using software QoS to prioritise voice (VoIP) traffic over the VPNs

Select the solution components that are relevant for your network requirements and

internet connection type.

About IPsec modes: tunnel and transport

This solution uses two types of VPN:

IPsec tunnel mode, for the headquarters office to branch office VPNs. These are site-to-

site (router-to-router) VPNs.

IPsec transport mode with L2TP, for the roaming Windows VPN clients.

The following figure shows the protocol stacks for the tunnel mode VPN and the transport

mode VPN for the connection type PPPoA.

In this How To Note, branch office

uses PPPoA. The other offices in this How To Note use

different connection types and therefore have different stacks below IP. Branch office 2 uses

PPP over virtual Ethernet over ATM, and headquarters simply uses IP over an actual Ethernet

WAN connection.

Background: NAT-T and policies

NAT-T NAT Traversal (NAT-T) can be enabled on any of our IPsec VPN links. It automatically allows

IPsec VPNs to traverse any NAT gateways that may be in the VPN path. This is likely to occur

with the VPNs from the roaming VPN clients—they are likely to use a LAN at a remote site

that is behind a NAT gateway.

NAT-T may also be applicable for a site-to-site VPN, if one of the routers is behind a NAT

gateway, such as some ADSL devices. Note that AR44xS series routers provide an ADSL

interface, which removes the need for a separate ADSL device. Therefore, the examples in

this How To Note do not include NAT-T for the site-to-site VPNs.

The following figure shows how the addresses in the IPsec headers change as a packet from a

roaming client traverses NAT gateways in the VPN pathway. The figure illustrates IPsec

transport mode with L2TP.

Policies and It is useful to keep in mind that you apply firewall rules and IPsec policies to interfaces in the

interfaces following different ways:

Firewall rules can be applied on either private or public interfaces. The rules are matched

against traffic that comes into the interface to which they were applied. Rules applied to

private interfaces are typically quite different to rules applied to public interfaces.

IPsec policies are applied only on the public interface. The policy definitions, and any active

Security Associations (SAs), are considered for both incoming and outgoing traffic on that

interface.

How to configure VPNs in typical corporate

networks

This section describes a typical corporate network using secure VPN. The network consists

of a headquarters (HQ) router and two branch office routers. The headquarters router is

acting as a VPN Access Concentrator, and allows for VPN access from either of the branch

office sites or from roaming laptop VPN clients. The network is illustrated in the following

figure.

Branch office

uses the PPPoA ADSL link type, and branch office 2 uses the PPPoEoA ADSL

link type. We have done this to illustrate these two commonly used ADSL link types. For

information about the ADSL link type you need, see your ADSL provider.

This How To Note gives you the commands for configuring each of the following:

1. The headquarters VPN access concentrator router, which includes:

an ethernet connection to the Internet

a fixed Internet address. This means that the branch offices and the roaming VPN

clients have a known target for the headquarters end of the VPN

VPN access to and from branch office 1. This can be initiated from the headquarters

or branch office end. This is a site-to-site VPN and uses IPsec tunnel mode (see

"Background: N A T -T and policies" on page 4).

VPN access from branch office 2. This can only be initiated from the branch office end,

because the branch office has a dynamically-assigned IP address. This also uses IPsec

tunnel mode.

VPN client access from roaming users on Windows 2000 and Windows XP. This is

provided by using IPsec transport mode with L2TP (see "About IPsec modes: tunnel

and transport" on page 3)

optionally, prioritisation of voice (VoIP) traffic for these VPN clients by using Software

Quality of Service (SQoS). If the VPN clients use VoIP to establish voice calls via the

headquarters network, this helps maintain voice quality.

2. The branch office

router, which provides:

an ADSL PPPoA Internet connection. Note that the PPPoA connection requires an

ATM DSLAM

VPN access to headquarters using IPsec tunnel mode

incoming VPN client access from roaming users

a fixed Internet address so that roaming VPN clients have a known target for the

branch office end of the VPN

3. The branch office 2 router, which provides:

an ADSL PPPoEoA Internet connection

VPN access to headquarters using IPsec tunnel mode

a dynamically assigned Internet address, as used by many ISPs.

Color coding For your convenience, the configurations are color-coded:

branch office

headquarters

branch office 2

Before you start

Don’t forget to check you have the following when planning your secure VPN network:

1. ISAKMP shared key

2. Fixed public IP addresses to use where appropriate

3. The IP subnets to use on private LANs at the branch and headquarters sites

4. The range of IP addresses to use in the IP pools for allocating to the remote users

5. Usernames and passwords for the remote users

6. IP addresses from which SSH connections can be made to the routers (if applicable)

7. Connection parameters for the ADSL connections at the branch offices

8. VPN client PCs set up, as described in the How To Notes in "Related How T o N otes" on

page 2.

How to configure the headquarters VPN access

concentrator

Before you begin to configure your router, ensure that it is running the appropriate software

release, patch and GUI files and has no configuration.

set inst=pref rel=<rel-file> pat=<patch-file> gui=<gui-file>

set conf=none

disable system security

restart reboot

Note: A software QoS extension to this configuration, to prioritise VoIP traffic over the

VPNs, is available in "How to prioritise outgoing V o IP traffic from the headquarters router" on

page 31.

1. Configure general system and user settings

Name the router

set system name=HQ

Define a security officer.

add user=secoff pass=<your-secoff-password> priv=securityofficer

lo=yes telnet=yes

Do not forget your “secoff” password.

Enable security mode so that VPN keys are stored securely, and other security features are

enabled.

enable system security

Once security mode is enabled, you need to log in as a security officer to enter most

configuration-altering commands.

password: <your-secoff-password>

It is important to keep this security officer username and password secure, and to consider

proper handover of it in the event of IT staff changes.

Also, we recommend you leave a “manager” privilege user defined because this may provide

backup access if the security officer password is lost. Do not leave the manager password at

the factory default—change it to a password in keeping with your company's security policy.

set user=manager password=<your-company-policy-password>

When security mode is enabled, router configuration access times out after inactivity to

prevent unauthorised access. The default timeout is 60 seconds, but you may temporarily

raise it to 600 seconds if desired.

set user securedelay=600

Page 8 | AlliedWare™ OS How To Note: VPNs for Corporate Networks

2. Configure IP for internet access

Give a fixed public address to the interface eth0, which is the Internet connection interface.

You can replace eth0 with ppp0 if you use a leased line.

enable ip

add ip int=eth0 ip=200.200.200.1

Give a fixed private address to the interface vlan

headquarters LAN.

1, which connects the router to the

add ip int=vlan1 ip=192.168.140.254

Set the default route. The next hop is the gateway address provided by the ISP.

add ip rou=0.0.0.0 mask=0.0.0.0 int=eth0 next=200.200.200.254

If desired, set up the router as a DHCP server for the headquarters LAN.

create dhcp policy=hq lease=7200

add dhcp policy=hq rou=192.168.140.254

add dhcp policy=hq subn=255.255.255.0

create dhcp range=hq_hosts policy=hq ip=192.168.140.16 num=32

ena dhcp

3. Configure remote management access, if desired

If you need remote management access, we strongly recommend that you use Secure Shell

(SSH). You should not telnet to a secure gateway.

To configure SSH, define appropriate RSA encryption keys, then enable the SSH server.

create enco key=2 type=rsa length=1024 description="host key"

format=ssh

create enco key=3 type=rsa length=768 description="server key"

format=ssh

enable ssh server serverkey=3 hostkey=2

Enable the user who connects via SSH to log in as secoff, by adding the secoff user as an SSH

user. Also, you may choose to restrict access so that it is only permitted from particular

addresses.

add ssh user=secoff password=<secoff-password>

ipaddress=<trusted-remote-ip-address>

mask=<subnet-mask-of-trusted-hosts>

disable telnet server

Secure Shell is a more secure, encrypted method of remote management access than telnet.

If you need to use telnet, even though it is insecure, you should restrict access by defining

Page 9 | AlliedWare™ OS How To Note: VPNs for Corporate Networks

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

remote security officers (RSOs). RSO definitions specify trusted remote addresses for

security officer users.

add user rso ip=<ipadd>[-<ipadd>]

enable user rso

enable telnet server

4. Capture status information remotely, if desired

If desired, set the router to send log messages to a syslog server.

create log output=2 destination=syslog server=<syslog-server-address>

syslogformat=extended

add log out=2 filter=1 sev=>3

If desired, you can configure SNMP to inform you or your service provider of network

events, such as the LAN interface of the router going down. We recommend SNMPv3 for

security reasons. For details, see How To Configure SNMPv3 On Allied Telesis Routers and

Managed Layer 3 Switches. This How To Note is available from www.alliedtelesis.com/

resources/literature/howto.aspx.

5. Configure dynamic PPP over L2TP connections

You need to configure dynamic PPP over L2TP to accept incoming Windows VPN client

connections.

Create an IP pool to allocate unique internal payload addresses to incoming VPN clients.

create ip pool=roaming ip=192.168.143.1-192.168.143.50

Define a PPP template. This defines authentication and uses the IP pool of addresses.

create ppp template=1

set ppp template=1 bap=off ippool=roaming authentication=chap echo=10

lqr=off

Configure L2TP. When the router successfully negotiates an L2TP tunnel connection from

any remote peer, it then creates a PPP interface over that tunnel, using the PPP parameters

defined by the PPP template. If you intend to prioritise voice traffic (see page 30), also turn

on TOS (type of service) reflection, so that DSCP marked VoIP packets can be classified for

prioritisation at the PPP level.

enable l2tp

enable l2tp server=both

add l2tp ip=1.1.1.1-255.255.255.254 ppptemplate=1 tos=on

Add your approved roaming VPN client usernames.

add user=roaming1 pass=roaming1 lo=no telnet=no

add user=roaming2 pass=roaming2 lo=no telnet=no

If desired, you can instead use a RADIUS authentication server.

add radius server=<radius-server-address> secret=<secret-key>

6. Check feature licences

Check that you have a 3DES feature licence for the ISAKMP policies.

show feature

You can purchase feature licences from your Allied Telesis distributor.

If necessary, install the licence, using the password provided by your distributor.

enable feature=3des pass=<licence-number>

7. Configure the VPNs for the branch offices and roaming clients

Enable IPsec

enable ipsec

In this example, IPsec SA specifications propose:

ISAKMP as the key management protocol

ESP as the IPsec protocol

(for site-to-site VPNs) 3DESOUTER as the encryption algorithm for ESP

(for site-to-site VPNs) SHA as the hashing algorithm for ESP authentication

(for roaming client VPNs) four possible variants of VPN encryption, for added flexibility.

We propose the most secure option first.

Create an SA specification for the branch office site-to-site VPN. This SA specification uses

tunnel mode by default.

create ipsec sas=1 key=isakmp prot=esp enc=3desouter hasha=sha

Create a group of SA specifications for the roaming VPN clients. These SA specifications use

IPsec transport mode for Windows VPN interoperability. Multiple specifications allow IPsec

to negotiate different levels of encryption to match what your version of the VPN client

provides.

create ipsec sas=2 key=isakmp prot=esp enc=3desouter hasha=sha

mod=transport

create ipsec sas=3 key=isakmp prot=esp enc=3desouter hasha=md5

mod=transport

create ipsec sas=4 key=isakmp prot=esp enc=des hasha=sha mod=transport

create ipsec sas=5 key=isakmp prot=esp enc=des hasha=md5 mod=transport

Create two IPsec bundles, one for the remote branch routers and one for the roaming VPN

clients.

create ipsec bund=1 key=isakmp string="1"

create ipsec bund=2 key=isakmp string="2 or 3 or 4 or 5"

Page 11 | AlliedWare™ OS How To Note: VPNs for Corporate Networks

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Create IPsec policies to bypass IPsec for ISAKMP messages and the “port floated” key

exchange that NAT-T uses.

create ipsec pol=isakmp int=eth0 ac=permit lp=500 rp=500

create ipsec pol=isakmp_float int=eth0 ac=permit lp=4500

Create an IPsec policy for the VPN traffic between headquarters and branch office

the traffic by its local and remote addresses—in this example the subnet used on the LAN at

branch office (remote) is 92. 68. .0/24. Note that the local address selector is wider

1. Identify

141

than the headquarter’s LAN; in fact, we cover all site subnets with this supernet.

create ipsec pol=branch1 int=eth0 ac=ipsec key=isakmp isa=branch1

bund=1 peer=222.222.222.1 lad=192.168.0.0 lma=255.255.0.0

rad=192.168.141.0 rma=255.255.255.0

Create another IPsec policy for the VPN traffic between headquarters and branch office 2.

The subnet used on the LAN at branch office 2 is 192.168.142.0/24. This policy uses

peeraddress=dynamic. The dynamic option is designed for only one dynamic peer to

connect at a time under that policy, which makes sense when the policy is intended for one

branch office.

create ipsec pol=branch2 int=eth0 ac=ipsec key=isakmp isa=branch2

bund=1 peer=dynamic lad=192.168.0.0 lma=255.255.0.0

rad=192.168.142.0 rma=255.255.255.0

Create another IPsec policy for roaming VPN clients to access headquarters. Identify the

traffic by the L2TP port (UDP traffic to port 1701). This policy uses peeraddress=any. The

any option allows simultaneous VPN clients to be set up under the policy.

create ipsec pol=roaming int=eth0 ac=ipsec key=isakmp bund=2 peer=any

isa=roaming lp=1701 tra=udp

Create another IPsec policy for direct Internet traffic from the headquarters LAN to the

Internet, such as web browsing.

create ipsec pol=internet int=eth0 ac=permit

Note: The order of the IPsec policies is important. The Internet permit policy must be last.

Create your ISAKMP pre-shared key. This key is used when initiating your VPN during phase

one ISAKMP exchanges with your VPN peers. Share the value of this pre-shared key with all

VPN peers that use it—in this example, the roaming VPN clients and the branch office

routers. The router only uses this key during phase one ISAKMP exchanges.

create enco key=1 type=general value=<alphanumeric-preshared-key>

Enable ISAKMP.

ena isa

This example uses separate ISAKMP policies for each peer. Note the following points about

the policies:

different ISAKMP policies meet the different needs of the different types of peer—Allied

Telesis routers versus Windows VPN clients. For example, Allied Telesis peers support

heartbeats; Windows VPN clients do not.

Page 12 | AlliedWare™ OS How To Note: VPNs for Corporate Networks

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

the branch office policies use a different encryption transform—3des2key—than the

roaming policy. When a new incoming ISAKMP message starts, this lets the router identify

whether to match it to the roaming policy or one of the branch office policies.

the policies include local IDs. These allow the remote peers to identify incoming ISAKMP

packets from the headquarters router through any NAT gateways in the path.

Create an ISAKMP policy for the VPN to branch 1, with a fixed address. Use ISAKMP

heartbeats, which allow ISAKMP to clear SAs if either end of the link resets.

create isakmp pol=branch1 pe=222.222.222.1 sendd=true key=1 heart=both

encalg=3des2key localid=hq

Create an ISAKMP policy for the VPN to branch 2, with peer=any because the branch 2

router has a dynamic address.

create isakmp pol=branch2 pe=any sendd=true key=1 heart=both

encalg=3des2key localid=hq

Create an ISAKMP policy for VPNs to roaming VPN clients, with peer=any because the

peers have dynamic addresses. Note that you cannot use heartbeats with Windows peers.

We recommend that you enable NAT-T, because the roaming VPN clients will sometimes

need to connect through a NAT-T gateway.

create isakmp pol=roaming pe=any key=1 sendd=true natt=true sendi=on

localid=hq2

The roaming policy uses the same key as the branch office policies. If you want to, you can

instead generate a unique pre-shared key to use with the roaming clients, and attach it to the

roaming policy.

8. Configure the firewall’s basic settings

Enable the firewall and create a firewall policy.

enable firewall

create firewall policy=hq

enable firewall policy=hq icmp_f=all

Specify the LAN-facing interface of the router as a private (trusted) interface on the firewall.

add firewall policy=hq int=vlan1 type=private

Specify the Internet-facing interface of the router as a public (not trusted) interface on the

firewall.

add firewall policy=hq int=eth0 type=public

Define a firewall dynamic definition to enable dynamically created interfaces to participate in

the firewall. In this case, the definition provides for the dynamic PPP over L2TP interfaces

that incoming Windows VPN connections use. In other words, when the router dynamically

creates PPP interfaces over the L2TP connections from the roaming PC clients, the router

automatically adds these dynamic interfaces as private interfaces on the firewall. The router

Page 13 | AlliedWare™ OS How To Note: VPNs for Corporate Networks

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

can trust traffic arriving on the dynamic interfaces because—in this example configuration—it

can only come from an authenticated and encrypted VPN connection.

create firewall policy=hq dynamic=roaming

add firewall policy=hq dynamic=roaming user=any

add firewall policy=hq int=dyn-roaming type=private

Define NAT definitions to use when traffic from the local LAN accesses the Internet and to

allow Internet access for remote VPN client users.

add firewall policy=hq nat=enhanced int=vlan1 gblin=eth0

add firewall policy=hq nat=enhanced int=dyn-roaming gblin=eth0

Note: Windows VPN client default behaviour does not support “split tunnelling”. This

means that when the Windows VPN tunnel is up, all traffic passes through it, whether the

traffic is destined for the headquarters office LAN or for Internet surfing destinations.

Therefore, we suggest you define the second NAT above, to allow clients to access the

Internet via the headquarters router when their VPN connection is up.

9. Configure the firewall’s access rules

Create a rule to allow incoming ISAKMP negotiation messages to pass through the firewall.

add firewall policy=hq ru=1 ac=allo int=eth0 prot=udp po=500

ip=200.200.200.1 gblip=200.200.200.1 gblp=500

Create a rule to support NAT-T. If a NAT gateway is detected in the VPN path, NAT-T “port

floats” IKE to port 4500, and also encapsulates IPsec inside UDP headers to the same port.

Therefore, UDP traffic to port 4500 must be allowed to pass through the firewall.

add firewall policy=hq ru=2 ac=allo int=eth0 prot=udp po=4500

ip=200.200.200.1 gblip=200.200.200.1 gblp=4500

Create a rule for the roaming VPN clients. Windows VPN client uses L2TP (UDP to port

701) encapsulated inside IPsec. This rule allows L2TP traffic through the firewall if it

originally arrived at the router encapsulated in IPsec (and was decapsulated by the IPsec

process before it passed to the firewall).

add firewall policy=hq ru=3 ac=allo int=eth0 prot=udp po=1701

ip=200.200.200.1 gblip=200.200.200.1 gblp=1701 enc=ips

Create a pair of rules to allow office-to-office payload traffic to pass through the firewall

without applying NAT. This traffic must bypass NAT so that the traffic matches subsequent

IPsec policy address selectors. You need two rules—one for the public interface and one for

the private interface—so that office-to-office payload traffic bypasses NAT regardless of

which side initiated the session.

The rule for the public interface uses encapsulation=ipsec to identify incoming VPN

traffic—decrypted payload data that came from the IPsec module.

add firewall policy=hq ru=4 ac=non int=eth0 prot=all enc=ips

Page 14 | AlliedWare™ OS How To Note: VPNs for Corporate Networks

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

The rule for the private interface uses both source and destination addresses to identify

outgoing VPN traffic.

add firewall policy=hq ru=5 ac=non int=vlan1 prot=all

ip=192.168.140.1-192.168.140.254 rem=192.168.141.0-192.168.144.254

If you configured SSH (recommended), create a rule to allow SSH traffic to pass through the

firewall.

add firewall policy=hq ru=6 ac=allo int=eth0 prot=tcp po=22

ip=200.200.200.1 gblip=200.200.200.1 gblp=22

If you instead stayed with telnet (not recommended) and configured RSOs, create a rule to

allow telnet traffic to pass through the firewall.

add firewall policy=hq ru=7 ac=allo int=eth0 prot=tcp po=23

ip=200.200.200.1 gblip=200.200.200.1 gblp=23

10. Save your configuration

It is important to save your configuration when you finish, to preserve the configuration over

any power cuts.

create conf=<your-file.cfg>

This is particularly important in security configurations because it preserves the security

officer definition. Without this, regaining configuration access would destroy encryption

information such as keys.

Once you have saved the configuration to a file, specify that file as the configuration script to

use when the router boots up.

set config=<your-file.cfg>

Note: If you forget your secoff user password, log in as manager. The manager user cannot

edit a router in system security mode, so enter the command disable system security. This

destroys your encryption keys. Edit your configuration file to redefine your secoff user

password, then reboot, then log in as secoff, then enable system security again, then recreate

the keys.

How to configure the AR440S router at branch office

Before you begin to configure your router, ensure that it is running the appropriate software

release, patch and GUI files and has no configuration.

set inst=pref rel=<rel-file> pat=<patch-file> gui=<gui-file>

set conf=none

disable system security

restart reboot

Note: A software QoS extension to this configuration, to prioritise VoIP traffic over the

VPNs, is available in "How to prioritise outgoing V o IP traffic from the branch office

router" on page 33.

1. Configure general system and user settings

Name the router

set system name=Branch1

Define a security officer.

add user=secoff pass=<your-secoff-password> priv=securityofficer

lo=yes telnet=yes

Do not forget your “secoff” password.

Enable security mode so that VPN keys are stored securely, and other security features are

enabled.

enable system security

Once security mode is enabled, you need to log in as a security officer to enter most

configuration-altering commands.

password: <your-secoff-password>

It is important to keep this security officer username and password secure, and to consider

proper handover of it in the event of IT staff changes.

Also, we recommend you leave a “manager” privilege user defined because this may provide

backup access if the security officer password is lost. Do not leave the manager password at

the factory default—change it to a password in keeping with your company's security policy.

set user=manager password=<your-company-policy-password>

When security mode is enabled, router configuration access times out after inactivity to

prevent unauthorised access. The default timeout is 60 seconds, but you may temporarily

raise it to 600 seconds if desired.

set user securedelay=600

2. Configure ADSL for internet access

Create your Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) connection. Asynchronous Transfer

Mode (ATM) is always used over ADSL.

enable adsl=0

create atm=0 over=adsl0

add atm=0 channel=1

3. Configure PPP for PPPoA

Create your PPPoA link, and define the username and password needed for Internet access.

This is provided by your Internet Service Provider (ISP).

create ppp=0 over=atm0.1 echo=10 lqr=off bap=off idle=off

set ppp=0 username="branch office 1" password=branch1 iprequest=off

Note that this interface needs a permanent IP address because this branch office allows

incoming roaming VPN client connections. The clients can only target a known, unchanging

address.

4. Configure IP

Enable IP

enable ip

Define the vlan interface address. This VLAN connects the router to the branch office LAN.

add ip int=vlan1 ip=192.168.141.254

Define the fixed IP address of the ADSL PPP interface.

add ip int=ppp0 ip=222.222.222.1

Add a default route out the ADSL PPP interface. When using PPP, it is valid to define a null

value next hop.

add ip rou=0.0.0.0 mask=0.0.0.0 int=ppp0 next=0.0.0.0

If desired, set up the router as a DHCP server for the branch office

create dhcp policy=branch1 lease=7200

LAN.

add dhcp policy=branch1 rou=192.168.141.254

add dhcp policy=branch1 subn=255.255.255.0

create dhcp range=branch1_hosts poli=branch1 ip=192.168.141.16 num=32

ena dhcp

5. Configure remote management access, if desired

If you need remote management access, we strongly recommend that you use Secure Shell

(SSH). You should not telnet to a secure gateway.

To configure SSH, define appropriate RSA encryption keys, then enable the SSH server.

create enco key=2 type=rsa length=1024 description="host key"

format=ssh

create enco key=3 type=rsa length=768 description="server key"

format=ssh

enable ssh server serverkey=3 hostkey=2

Enable the user who connects via SSH to log in as secoff, by adding the secoff user as an SSH

user. Also, you may choose to restrict access so that it is only permitted from particular

addresses.

add ssh user=secoff password=<secoff-password>

ipaddress=<trusted-remote-ip-address>

mask=<subnet-mask-of-trusted-hosts>

disable telnet server

Secure Shell is a more secure, encrypted method of remote management access than telnet.

If you need to use telnet, even though it is insecure, you should restrict access by defining

remote security officers (RSOs). RSO definitions specify trusted remote addresses for

security officer users.

add user rso ip=<ipadd>[-<ipadd>]

enable user rso

enable telnet server

6. Capture status information remotely, if desired

If desired, set the router to send log messages to a syslog server.

create log output=2 destination=syslog server=<syslog-server-address>

syslogformat=extended

add log out=2 filter=1 sev=>3

If desired, you can configure SNMP to inform you or your service provider of network

events, such as the LAN interface of the router going down. We recommend SNMPv3 for

security reasons. For details, see How To Configure SNMPv3 On Allied Telesis Routers and

Managed Layer 3 Switches. This How To Note is available from www.alliedtelesis.com/

resources/literature/howto.aspx.

7. Configure dynamic PPP over L2TP connections

You need to configure dynamic PPP over L2TP to accept incoming Windows VPN client

connections.

Create an IP pool to allocate unique internal payload addresses to incoming VPN clients.

create ip pool=roaming ip=192.168.144.1-192.168.144.50

Define a PPP template. This defines authentication and uses the IP pool of addresses.

create ppp template=1

set ppp template=1 bap=off ippool=roaming authentication=chap echo=10

lqr=off

Configure L2TP. When the router successfully negotiates an L2TP tunnel connection from

any remote peer, it then creates a PPP interface over that tunnel, using the PPP parameters

defined by the PPP template.

enable l2tp

enable l2tp server=both

add l2tp ip=1.1.1.1-255.255.255.254 ppptemplate=1

Add your approved roaming VPN client usernames.

add user=roaming2 pass=roaming2 lo=no telnet=no

If desired, you can instead use a RADIUS authentication server.

add radius server=<radius-server-address> secret=<secret-key>

8. Check feature licences

Check that you have a 3DES feature licence for the ISAKMP policies.

show feature

You can purchase feature licences from your Allied Telesis distributor.

If necessary, install the licence, using the password provided by your distributor.

enable feature=3des pass=<licence-number>

9. Configure the VPNs for connecting to headquarters and roaming clients

Enable IPsec

enable ipsec

In this example, IPsec SA specifications propose:

ISAKMP as the key management protocol

ESP as the IPsec protocol

Page 19 | AlliedWare™ OS How To Note: VPNs for Corporate Networks

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

(for site-to-site VPNs) 3DESOUTER as the encryption algorithm for ESP

(for site-to-site VPNs) SHA as the hashing algorithm for ESP authentication

(for roaming client VPNs) four possible variants of VPN encryption, for added flexibility.

We propose the most secure option first.

Create an SA specification for the headquarters office site-to-site VPN. This SA specification

uses tunnel mode by default.

create ipsec sas=1 key=isakmp prot=esp enc=3desouter hasha=sha

Create a group of SA specifications for the roaming VPN clients. These SA specifications use

IPsec transport mode for Windows VPN interoperability. Multiple specifications allow IPsec

to negotiate different levels of encryption to match what your version of the VPN client

provides.

create ipsec sas=2 key=isakmp prot=esp enc=3desouter hasha=sha

mod=transport

create ipsec sas=3 key=isakmp prot=esp enc=3desouter hasha=md5

mod=transport

create ipsec sas=4 key=isakmp prot=esp enc=des hasha=sha mod=transport

create ipsec sas=5 key=isakmp prot=esp enc=des hasha=md5 mod=transport

Create two IPsec bundles, one for the headquarters router VPN and one for the roaming

VPN clients.

create ipsec bund=1 key=isakmp string="1"

create ipsec bund=2 key=isakmp string="2 or 3 or 4 or 5"

Create IPsec policies to bypass IPsec for ISAKMP messages and the “port floated” key

exchange that NAT-T uses.

create ipsec pol=isakmp int=ppp0 ac=permit lp=500 rp=500

create ipsec pol=isakmp_float int=ppp0 ac=permit lp=4500

Create an IPsec policy for the VPN traffic between headquarters and branch office

the traffic by its local and remote addresses—in this example the subnet used on the LAN at

branch office (local) is 92. 68. .0/24. Note that the remote address selector is wider

1. Identify

141

than the headquarter’s LAN; in fact, we cover all site subnets with this supernet.

create ipsec pol=hq int=ppp0 ac=ipsec key=isakmp bund=1

peer=200.200.200.1 isa=hq lad=192.168.141.0 lma=255.255.255.0

rad=192.168.0.0 rma=255.255.0.0

Create another IPsec policy for roaming VPN clients to access headquarters. Identify the

traffic by the L2TP port (UDP traffic to port 1701). This policy uses peeraddress=any. The

any option allows simultaneous VPN clients to be set up under the policy.

create ipsec pol=roaming int=ppp0 ac=ipsec key=isakmp bund=2 peer=any

isa=roaming lp=1701 tra=udp

Create another IPsec policy for direct Internet traffic from the headquarters LAN to the

Internet, such as web browsing.

create ipsec pol=internet int=ppp0 ac=permit

Note: The order of the IPsec policies is important. The Internet permit policy must be last.

Page 20 | AlliedWare™ OS How To Note: VPNs for Corporate Networks

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Create your ISAKMP pre-shared key. This key is used when initiating your VPN during phase

one ISAKMP exchanges with your VPN peers. Share the value of this pre-shared key with all

VPN peers that use it—in this example, the roaming VPN clients and the headquarters

router. The router only uses this key during phase one ISAKMP exchanges.

create enco key=1 type=general value=<alphanumeric-preshared-key>

Enable ISAKMP.

ena isa

Like the headquarters policy (see comments on page 12) this example uses separate ISAKMP

policies for each peer.

Create an ISAKMP policy for the VPN to headquarters, with a fixed address. Use ISAKMP

heartbeats, which allow ISAKMP to clear SAs if either end of the link resets.

create isakmp pol=hq pe=200.200.200.1 sendd=true key=1 heart=both

localid=branch1 encalg=3des2key

Create an ISAKMP policy for roaming VPN clients, with peer=any because the peers have

dynamic addresses. Note that you cannot use heartbeats with Windows peers. We

recommend that you enable NAT-T, because the roaming VPN clients will sometimes need to

connect through a NAT-T gateway.

create isakmp pol=roaming pe=any key=1 sendd=true sendi=on natt=true

localid=branch1

The roaming policy uses the same key as the policy for the headquarters VPN. If you want to,

you can instead generate a unique pre-shared key to use with the roaming clients, and attach

it to the roaming policy.

10. Configure the firewall’s basic settings

Enable the firewall and create a firewall policy.

enable firewall

create firewall policy=branch1

enable firewall policy=branch1 icmp_f=all

Specify the LAN-facing interface of the router as a private (trusted) interface on the firewall.

add firewall policy=branch1 int=vlan1 type=private

Specify the Internet-facing interface of the router as a public (not trusted) interface on the

firewall.

add firewall policy=branch1 int=ppp0 type=public

Define a firewall dynamic definition to enable dynamically created interfaces to participate in

the firewall. In this case, the definition provides for the dynamic PPP over L2TP interfaces

that incoming Windows VPN connections use. In other words, when the router dynamically

creates PPP interfaces over the L2TP connections from the roaming PC clients, the router

automatically adds these dynamic interfaces as private interfaces on the firewall. The router

Page 21 | AlliedWare™ OS How To Note: VPNs for Corporate Networks

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

can trust traffic arriving on the dynamic interfaces because—in this example configuration—it

can only come from an authenticated and encrypted VPN connection.

create firewall policy=branch1 dynamic=roaming

add firewall policy=branch1 dynamic=roaming user=any

add firewall policy=branch1 int=dyn-roaming type=private

Define NAT definitions to use when traffic from the local LAN accesses the Internet and to

allow Internet access for remote VPN client users.

add firewall policy=branch1 nat=enhanced int=vlan1 gblin=ppp0

add firewall policy=branch1 nat=enhanced int=dyn-roaming gblin=ppp0

Note: Windows VPN client default behaviour does not support “split tunnelling”. This

means that when the Windows VPN tunnel is up, all traffic passes through it, whether the

traffic is destined for the branch office LAN or for Internet surfing destinations. Therefore, we

suggest you define the second NAT above, to allow clients to access the Internet via the

branch office router when their VPN connection is up.

11. Configure the firewall’s access rules

Create a rule to allow incoming ISAKMP negotiation messages to pass through the firewall.

add firewall policy=branch1 ru=1 ac=allo int=ppp0 prot=udp po=500

ip=222.222.222.1 gblip=222.222.222.1 gblp=500

Create a rule to support NAT-T. If a NAT gateway is detected in the VPN path, NAT-T “port

floats” IKE to port 4500, and also encapsulates IPsec inside UDP headers to the same port.

Therefore, UDP traffic to port 4500 must be allowed to pass through the firewall.

add firewall policy=branch1 ru=2 ac=allo int=ppp0 prot=udp po=4500

ip=222.222.222.1 gblip=222.222.222.1 gblp=4500

Create a rule for the roaming VPN clients. Windows VPN client uses L2TP (UDP to port

701) encapsulated inside IPsec. This rule allows L2TP traffic through the firewall if it

originally arrived at the router encapsulated in IPsec (and was decapsulated by the IPsec

process before it passed to the firewall).

add firewall policy=branch1 ru=3 ac=allo int=ppp0 prot=udp po=1701

ip=222.222.222.1 gblip=222.222.222.1 gblp=1701 enc=ips

Create a pair of rules to allow office-to-office payload traffic to pass through the firewall

without applying NAT. This traffic must bypass NAT so that the traffic matches subsequent

IPsec policy address selectors. You need two rules—one for the public interface and one for

the private interface—so that office-to-office payload traffic bypasses NAT regardless of

which side initiated the session.

The rule for the public interface uses encapsulation=ipsec to identify incoming VPN

traffic—decrypted payload data that came from the IPsec module.

add firewall policy=branch1 ru=4 ac=non int=ppp0 prot=all enc=ips

Page 22 | AlliedWare™ OS How To Note: VPNs for Corporate Networks

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

The rule for the private interface uses both source and destination addresses to identify

outgoing VPN traffic.

add firewall policy=branch1 ru=5 ac=non int=vlan1 prot=all

ip=192.168.141.1-192.168.141.254 rem=192.168.140.0-192.168.142.254

If you configured SSH (recommended), create a rule to allow SSH traffic to pass through the

firewall.

add firewall policy=branch1 ru=6 ac=allo int=ppp0 prot=tcp po=22

ip=222.222.222.1 gblip=222.222.222.1 gblp=22

If you instead stayed with telnet (not recommended) and configured RSOs, create a rule to

allow telnet traffic to pass through the firewall.

add firewall policy=branch1 ru=7 ac=allo int=ppp0 prot=tcp po=23

ip=222.222.222.1 gblip=222.222.222.1 gblp=23

12. Save your configuration

It is important to save your configuration when you finish, to preserve the configuration over

any power cuts.

create conf=<your-file.cfg>

This is particularly important in security configurations because it preserves the security

officer definition. Without this, regaining configuration access would destroy encryption

information such as keys.

Once you have saved the configuration to a file, specify that file as the configuration script to

use when the router boots up.

set config=<your-file.cfg>

How to configure the AR440S router at branch office 2

Before you begin to configure your router, ensure that it is running the appropriate software

release, patch and GUI files and has no configuration.

set inst=pref rel=<rel-file> pat=<patch-file> gui=<gui-file>

set conf=none

disable system security

restart reboot

Note: A software QoS extension to this configuration, to prioritise VoIP traffic over the

VPNs, is available in "How to prioritise outgoing V o IP traffic from the headquarters router" on

page 31.

1. Configure general system and user settings

Name the router

set system name=Branch2

Define a security officer.

add user=secoff pass=<your-secoff-password> priv=securityofficer

lo=yes telnet=yes

Do not forget your “secoff” password.

Enable security mode so that VPN keys are stored securely, and other security features are

enabled.

enable system security

Once security mode is enabled, you need to log in as a security officer to enter most

configuration-altering commands.

password: <your-secoff-password>

It is important to keep this security officer username and password secure, and to consider

proper handover of it in the event of IT staff changes.

Also, we recommend you leave a “manager” privilege user defined because this may provide

backup access if the security officer password is lost. Do not leave the manager password at

the factory default—change it to a password in keeping with your company's security policy.

set user=manager password=<your-company-policy-password>

When security mode is enabled, router configuration access times out after inactivity to

prevent unauthorised access. The default timeout is 60 seconds, but you may temporarily

raise it to 600 seconds if desired.

set user securedelay=600

Page 24 | AlliedWare™ OS How To Note: VPNs for Corporate Networks

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

2. Configure ADSL for internet access

Create your Asymmetric Digital Subscriber Line (ADSL) connection. Asynchronous Transfer

Mode (ATM) is always used over ADSL.

enable adsl=0

create atm=0 over=adsl0

add atm=0 channel=1

Branch 2 uses PPPoEoA (PPP over virtual ethernet over ATM). Create the virtual ethernet

over ATM.

create eth=0 over=atm0.1

3. Configure PPP for PPPoE

Create your PPPoE link, and define the username and password needed for Internet access.

This is provided by your Internet Service Provider (ISP). Use iprequest=on so that the

interface obtains its address dynamically from the ISP—this office has no incoming roaming

VPN clients so does not need a fixed address.

create ppp=0 over=eth0-any echo=10 lqr=off bap=off idle=off

set ppp=0 iprequest=on username="branch office 2" password=branch2

4. Configure IP

Enable IP

enable ip

Define the vlan interface address. This VLAN connects the router to the branch office LAN.

add ip int=vlan1 ip=192.168.142.254

The interface ppp0 (over virtual ethernet and ATM/ADSL) provides the Internet connection

interface. Enable IP remote assignment, to allow your ISP to dynamically assign an IP address

to ppp0.

enable ip remote

Configure a temporary null address.

add ip int=ppp0 ip=0.0.0.0

Add a default route out the ADSL PPP interface. When using PPP, it is valid to define a null

value next hop.

add ip rou=0.0.0.0 mask=0.0.0.0 int=ppp0 next=0.0.0.0

Page 25 | AlliedWare™ OS How To Note: VPNs for Corporate Networks

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

If desired, set up the router as a DHCP server for the branch office 2 LAN.

create dhcp policy=branch2 lease=7200

add dhcp policy=branch2 rou=192.168.142.254

add dhcp policy=branch2 subn=255.255.255.0

create dhcp range=branch2_hosts poli=branch2 ip=192.168.142.16 num=32

ena dhcp

5. Configure remote management access, if desired

If you need remote management access, we strongly recommend that you use Secure Shell

(SSH). You should not telnet to a secure gateway.

To configure SSH, define appropriate RSA encryption keys, then enable the SSH server.

create enco key=2 type=rsa length=1024 description="host key"

format=ssh

create enco key=3 type=rsa length=768 description="server key"

format=ssh

enable ssh server serverkey=3 hostkey=2

Enable the user who connects via SSH to log in as secoff, by adding the secoff user as an SSH

user. Also, you may choose to restrict access so that it is only permitted from particular

addresses.

add ssh user=secoff password=<secoff-password>

ipaddress=<trusted-remote-ip-address>

mask=<subnet-mask-of-trusted-hosts>

disable telnet server

Secure Shell is a more secure, encrypted method of remote management access than telnet.

If you need to use telnet, even though it is insecure, you should restrict access by defining

remote security officers (RSOs). RSO definitions specify trusted remote addresses for

security officer users.

add user rso ip=<ipadd>[-<ipadd>]

enable user rso

enable telnet server

6. Capture status information remotely, if desired

If desired, set the router to send log messages to a syslog server.

create log output=2 destination=syslog server=<syslog-server-address>

syslogformat=extended

add log out=2 filter=1 sev=>3

If desired, you can configure SNMP to inform you or your service provider of network

events, such as the LAN interface of the router going down. We recommend SNMPv3 for

security reasons. For details, see How To Configure SNMPv3 On Allied Telesis Routers and

Managed Layer 3 Switches. This How To Note is available from www.alliedtelesis.com/

resources/literature/howto.aspx.

7. Check feature licences

Check that you have a 3DES feature licence for the ISAKMP policy.

show feature

You can purchase feature licences from your Allied Telesis distributor.

If necessary, install the licence, using the password provided by your distributor.

enable feature=3des pass=<licence-number>

8. Configure the VPNs for connecting to the headquarters office

Enable IPsec

enable ipsec

In this example, IPsec SA specification proposes:

ISAKMP as the key management protocol

ESP as the IPsec protocol

3DES as the encryption algorithm for ESP

SHA as the hashing algorithm for ESP authentication

Create an SA specification for the headquarters office site-to-site VPN. This SA specification

uses tunnel mode by default.

create ipsec sas=1 key=isakmp prot=esp enc=3desouter hasha=sha

Note that the branch office 2 router has no connections from roaming VPN clients so does

not need SA specifications for them.

Create an IPsec bundle for the SA specification.

create ipsec bund=1 key=isakmp string="1"

Create an IPsec policy to permit ISAKMP messages to bypass IPsec.

create ipsec pol=isakmp int=ppp0 ac=permit lp=500 rp=500

Create an IPsec policy for the VPN traffic between headquarters and branch office 2. Identify

the traffic by its local and remote addresses—in this example the subnet used on the LAN at

branch office 2 (local) is 192.168.142.0/24 so use that as the local address selector. However,

define a wider remote address selector, to allow for other incoming VPN traffic via

headquarters.

create ipsec pol=hq int=ppp0 ac=ipsec key=isakmp bund=1

peer=200.200.200.1 isa=hq lad=192.168.142.0 lma=255.255.255.0

rad=192.168.0.0 rma=255.255.0.0

Page 27 | AlliedWare™ OS How To Note: VPNs for Corporate Networks

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Create another IPsec policy for direct Internet traffic from the headquarters LAN to the

Internet, such as web browsing.

create ipsec pol=internet int=ppp0 ac=permit

Note: The order of the IPsec policies is important. The Internet permit policy must be last.

Create your ISAKMP pre-shared key. This key is used when initiating your VPN during phase

one ISAKMP exchanges with your VPN peers. Share the value of this pre-shared key with all

VPN peers that use it—in this example, the headquarters router. The router only uses this

key during phase one ISAKMP exchanges.

create enco key=1 type=general value=<alphanumeric-preshared-key>

Enable ISAKMP.

enable isakmp

Create an ISAKMP policy for the VPN to headquarters. Use ISAKMP heartbeats, which allow

ISAKMP to clear SAs if either end of the link resets.

create isakmp pol=hq pe=200.200.200.1 sendd=true key=1 heart=both

localid=branch2 encalg=3des2key

9. Configure the firewall’s basic settings

Enable the firewall and create a firewall policy.

enable firewall

create firewall policy=branch2

enable firewall policy=branch2 icmp_f=all

Specify the LAN-facing interface of the router as a private (trusted) interface on the firewall.

add firewall policy=branch2 int=vlan1 type=private

Specify the Internet-facing interface of the router as a public (not trusted) interface on the

firewall.

add firewall policy=branch2 int=ppp0 type=public

Define a NAT definition to use when traffic from the local LAN accesses the Internet.

add firewall policy=branch2 nat=enhanced int=vlan1 gblin=ppp0

10. Configure the firewall’s access rules

Create a rule to allow incoming ISAKMP negotiation messages to pass through the firewall.

This rule specifies 0.0.0.0 as the global IP address because the PPP address of branch office 2

is dynamically assigned. The rule uses the LAN address to identify matching traffic.

add firewall policy=branch2 ru=1 ac=allo int=ppp0 prot=udp po=500

ip=192.168.142.254 gblip=0.0.0.0 gblp=500

Page 28 | AlliedWare™ OS How To Note: VPNs for Corporate Networks

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Branch office 2 does not need rule 3 that the other sites have, because branch office 2 has no

roaming VPN client connections.

Create a pair of rules to allow office-to-office payload traffic to pass through the firewall

without applying NAT. This traffic must bypass NAT so that the traffic matches subsequent

IPsec policy address selectors. You need two rules—one for the public interface and one for

the private interface—so that office-to-office payload traffic bypasses NAT regardless of

which side initiated the session.

The rule for the public interface uses encapsulation=ipsec to identify incoming VPN

traffic—decrypted payload data that came from the IPsec module.

add firewall policy=branch2 ru=4 ac=non int=ppp0 prot=all enc=ips

The rule for the private interface uses both source and destination addresses to identify

outgoing VPN traffic.

add firewall policy=branch2 ru=5 ac=non int=vlan1 prot=all

ip=192.168.142.1-192.168.142.254 rem=192.168.140.0-192.168.142.254

If you configured SSH (recommended), create a rule to allow SSH traffic to pass through the

firewall.

add firewall policy=branch2 ru=6 ac=allo int=ppp0 prot=tcp po=22

ip=192.168.142.254 gblip=0.0.0.0 gblp=22

If you instead stayed with telnet (not recommended) and configured RSOs, create a rule to

allow telnet traffic to pass through the firewall.

add firewall policy=branch2 ru=7 ac=allo int=ppp0 prot=tcp po=23

ip=192.168.142.254 gblip=0.0.0.0 gblp=23

11. Save your configuration

It is important to save your configuration when you finish, to preserve the configuration over

any power cuts.

create conf=<your-file.cfg>

This is particularly important in security configurations because it preserves the security

officer definition. Without this, regaining configuration access would destroy encryption

information such as keys.

Once you have saved the configuration to a file, specify that file as the configuration script to

use when the router boots up.

set config=<your-file.cfg>

How to make voice traffic high priority

This is an optional enhancement to the configuration of the routers. It prioritises outgoing

voice traffic higher than other outgoing traffic on each VPN, to maximise call quality.

Use the configuration in this section if you expect your VPN client or branch office users will

be using VoIP over a VPN. The configuration consists of the following sections:

"How to prioritise outgoing V o IP traffic from the headquarters router"

"How to prioritise outgoing V o IP traffic from the branch office router"

"How to prioritise outgoing V o IP traffic from the branch office 2 router"

This enhancement prioritises outgoing voice traffic rather than incoming voice traffic,

because the link to the ISP is the most likely point of congestion.

We recommend you configure prioritisation on both peers in each VPN, not just on the

headquarters router, because the link from either peer to its ISP could become a point of

congestion.

Note: This enhancement only prioritises outgoing VoIP traffic at the routers you configure

it on. Of course, you cannot control the quality of service on routers in the Internet, such as

your ISP’s routers.

Classifying In the following configurations, the router classifies voice traffic by checking packets’ IP DSCP

VoIP traffic values. If the originating VoIP appliance does not mark packets with a DSCP value, you can

instead select the voice traffic by:

classifying on the range of destination ports that the appliance uses for RTP (Real Time

Protocol—the protocol that carries voice data), or

use the Dynamic Application Recognition (DAR) system, which dynamically determines

the ports

If you also need to classify the signalling traffic (call setup etc) and the signalling traffic is not

DSCP-marked, then create classifiers for the appropriate ports. For example, H.323 signalling

traffic uses TCP ports

720 and 1721, and SIP uses UDP port 5060. To create classifiers for

H.323 signalling packets, use the following commands:

create classifier=<id> tcpd=1720

create classifier=<id> tcpd=1721

For more information, including information about DAR, see the following:

the “Software Quality of Service (QoS)” and “Generic Packet Classifier” chapters of the

Software Reference

How To Configure Software QoS For Some Specific Customer Scenarios. This How To Note is

How to prioritise outgoing VoIP traffic from the

headquarters router

Add the following steps after step 9 on page 14.

1. Create classifiers

First, classify the VoIP traffic. In many deployments of VoIP, the originating VoIP appliance

marks VoIP packets with a DSCP value. In this example, it marks both VoIP traffic and VoIP

signalling packets with DSCP 48.

create classifier=48 ipds=48

2. Reduce the MTU

VoIP data packets are small. They can be significantly delayed by big packets on the WAN

port, especially on slow links. Therefore, you may find it helpful to reduce the MTU for all

packets on the WAN port, for example, to 256 bytes.

set int=eth0 mtu=256

You also need to make sure that all large packets are fragmented, even if they were

previously set to not be fragmented.

set int=eth0 frag=yes

3. Set up software QoS to ensure VoIP traffic has high priority

Enable software QoS (SQoS) and create an SQoS traffic class. This traffic class tags the

classified traffic as high priority on the interface queue. Also define a small queue size, which

is optimal for VoIP traffic.

ena sqos

cre sqos tr=1 prio=15 maxq=10

Create an SQoS policy and assign the traffic class to this policy. To make SQoS prioritisation

effective, define a suitable virtual bandwidth for the interface being used. As the bandwidth

limit is approached, SQoS can drop packets in a controlled manner and let high priority

packets pass first.

cre sqos policy=1 virt=120kbps

add sqos policy=1 tr=1

add sqos tr=1 classifier=48

Note that this step has not yet applied the policy to interfaces. For site-to-site VPNs, the

next step applies the policy directly to the tunnels. For roaming clients, the interfaces are

dynamically-created for incoming connections, so step 5 on page 32 defines triggers to

automatically apply the policy when connections establish.

4. For site-to-site VPNs, apply the SQoS policy to the tunnels

Apply the policy to the VPN between headquarters and branch office

set sqos interface=ipsec-branch1 tunnelpolicy=1

Apply the policy to the VPN between headquarters and branch office 2.

set sqos interface=ipsec-branch2 tunnelpolicy=1

5. For roaming clients, use triggers to apply SQoS to dynamic interfaces

This example creates four triggers, which allows for up to four simultaneous roaming client

VPNs. You can scale this to the correct number for your network.

Create the following scripts as text files on the router.

script name

ppp0up.scp

ppp1up.scp

ppp2up.scp

ppp3up.scp

script contents

set sqos int=ppp0 outpolicy=1

set sqos int=ppp1 outpolicy=1

set sqos int=ppp2 outpolicy=1

set sqos int=ppp3 outpolicy=1

Create triggers to run the appropriate script when the interface comes up.

enable trigger

create trigger=1 interface=ppp0 event=up cp=ipcp script=ppp0up.scp

create trigger=2 interface=ppp0 event=up cp=ipcp script=ppp1up.scp

create trigger=3 interface=ppp0 event=up cp=ipcp script=ppp2up.scp

create trigger=4 interface=ppp0 event=up cp=ipcp script=ppp3up.scp

6. For roaming clients, set L2TP TOS reflection

You need TOS (type of service) reflection so that DSCP marked VoIP packets can be

classified for prioritisation at the PPP level. Unless you already turned on TOS reflection

when you configured L2TP in step 5 on page 10, delete your existing L2TP entry and add it

again.

delete l2tp ip=1.1.1.1-255.255.255.254 ppptemplate=1

add l2tp ip=1.1.1.1-255.255.255.254 ppptemplate=1 tos=on

7. Save your configuration

create conf=<your-file.cfg>

set config=<your-file.cfg>

How to prioritise outgoing VoIP traffic from the branch

office router

Add the following steps after step 11 on page 22.

1. Create classifiers

In this example, the originating VoIP appliance has marked VoIP traffic and VoIP signalling

packets with DSCP 48.

create classifier=48 ipds=48

2. Reduce the MTU

VoIP data packets are small. They can be significantly delayed by big packets on the WAN

port, especially on slow links. Therefore, you may find it helpful to reduce the MTU for all

packets on the WAN port, for example, to 256 bytes.

set int=ppp0 mtu=256

You also need to make sure that all large packets are fragmented, even if they were

previously set to not be fragmented.

set int=ppp0 frag=yes

3. Set up software QoS to ensure VoIP traffic has high priority

Enable software QoS (SQoS), create an SQoS traffic class, and define a small queue size.

ena sqos

cre sqos tr=1 prio=15 maxq=10

Create an SQoS policy, assign the traffic class to this policy, and define a suitable virtual

bandwidth for the interface being used.

cre sqos policy=1 virt=120kbps

add sqos policy=1 tr=1

add sqos tr=1 classifier=48

4. For the site-to-site VPN, apply the SQoS policy to the tunnel

Apply the policy to the VPN between branch office

and headquarters.

set sqos interface=ipsec-hq tunnelpolicy=1

set sqos int=ppp1 outpolicy=1

set sqos int=ppp2 outpolicy=1

set sqos int=ppp3 outpolicy=1

Create triggers to run the appropriate script when the interface comes up.

enable trigger

create trigger=1 interface=ppp0 event=up cp=ipcp script=ppp0up.scp

create trigger=2 interface=ppp0 event=up cp=ipcp script=ppp1up.scp

create trigger=3 interface=ppp0 event=up cp=ipcp script=ppp2up.scp

create trigger=4 interface=ppp0 event=up cp=ipcp script=ppp3up.scp

6. For roaming clients, set L2TP TOS reflection

You need TOS (type of service) reflection so that DSCP marked VoIP packets can be

classified for prioritisation at the PPP level. Unless you already turned on TOS reflection

when you configured L2TP in step 7 on page 19, delete your existing L2TP entry and add it

again.

delete l2tp ip=1.1.1.1-255.255.255.254 ppptemplate=1

add l2tp ip=1.1.1.1-255.255.255.254 ppptemplate=1 tos=on

How to test your VPN solution

If the following tests show that your tunnel is not working, see the How To Note How To

Troubleshoot A Virtual Private Network (VPN).

Check the The simplest way to test a tunnel is to ping from one LAN to the other.

LANs are

reachable From a PC attached to one peer, ping a PC attached to the other peer. For example, you can

test the VPN between branch office

office LAN from any PC in the headquarters LAN. If a PC in the branch office

address of 92. 68. , that means using the following command at the command prompt

on a PC at headquarters:

and headquarters by pinging any PC in the branch

LAN has an

141.1

ping 192.168.141.1

If a Microsoft Windows PC’s IP address was assigned dynamically, you can find out what it is

by using the following command at the command prompt:

ipconfig

Check traffic To tell if traffic passes through the tunnel, perform a traceroute from one LAN to the

goes through other—so from a PC attached to one peer, perform a traceroute to a PC attached to the

the VPN other peer. For example, if a PC in the branch office

LAN has an address of 192.168.141.1,

that means using the following command at the command prompt on a (Windows) PC at

headquarters:

tracert 192.168.141.1

If traffic goes through the tunnel, the traceroute may display IP addresses from one or both

peers’ private networks and public interfaces. If it shows other public IP addresses, then

traffic is not passing through the tunnel.

Configuration scripts for headquarters and

branch offices

This section provides script-only versions of the three configurations described earlier in this

document. Scripts can provide a quicker way to configure your routers, through pre-editing

and downloading using TFTP or ZMODEM.

You can copy and paste the scripts below to an editor on your PC, modify addresses,

passwords and any other requirements for all your individual sites, and then use TFTP or

ZMODEM to transfer the files to your routers.

Please refer to the “Managing Configuration Files and Software Versions” chapter in the

Software Reference for more information about TFTP and ZMODEM.

Before you use these scripts

You need to do the following aspects of the security configuration by entering commands in

the command line instead of adding them to the scripts:

creating a security officer (this needs to be in the script as well)

add user=secoff pass=<your-secoff-password> priv=securityofficer

lo=yes telnet=yes

enabling system security

enable system security

logging in as security officer

enabling the 3DES feature licence if it is not factory-enabled

enable feature=3des pass=<licence-number>

defining encryption keys for SSH and ISAKMP.

cre enco key=1 type=general value=<alphanumeric-preshared-key>

cre enco key=2 type=rsa length=1024 desc="host key" format=ssh

cre enco key=3 type=rsa length=768 desc="server key" format=ssh

Color coding For your convenience, the scripts are color-coded:

Extra configuration scripts for lab testing the VPN

solution

This section provides additional configuration that you may need if you want to lab test the

VPN solution. It has scripts for:

setting up a PPPoE access concentrator for branch office 2 to connect to. In a test

network, this access concentrator plays the role of the PPPoA or PPPoEoA service from

your ISP or Telco

setting up a NAT gateway so you can verify your VPN clients passing through NAT-T. In a

test network, this NAT gateway router plays the role of the hotel’s NAT gateway.

ISP's PPPoE access concentrator configuration

This configuration is provided only to allow you to bench test this VPN solution. In the live

installation, your ISP or Telco provides your PPPoEoA or PPPoA service.
