GET VPN - part nine (exception)




Let’s consider scenario where we need to block traffic between some LANs but we don’t want to change proxy to not increase number of Security Association (SA).
My requirements are:
  • ACL should be the same - access-list 102 permit ip 20.0.0.0 0.255.255.255 20.0.0.0 0.255.255.255
  • permit LAN1-spoke1 (20.33.33.33) to LAN1-spoke2 (20.44.44.44)
  • deny LAN1-spoke1 (20.33.33.33) to LAN1-spoke3 (20.55.55.55)
One of the recommend method is ‘match’ statement under a crypto map:

access-list 120 deny   ip host 20.33.33.33 host 20.55.55.55 

before I apply this access list I need to be sure I can ping hosts between sites:
 
R5#ping vrf RED 20.33.33.33 source 20.55.55.55
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 20.33.33.33, timeout is 2 seconds:
Packet sent with a source address of 20.55.55.55
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 96/98/100 ms
R5#
 
 
R4#ping vrf RED 20.33.33.33 source 20.44.44.44
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 20.33.33.33, timeout is 2 seconds:
Packet sent with a source address of 20.44.44.44
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 88/110/136 ms
R4#

As you see I can ping from both sites. Let’s apply the ACL:
 
R3#sh run int fa0/0.3
Building configuration...

Current configuration : 140 bytes
!
interface FastEthernet0/0.3
 encapsulation dot1Q 73
 ip vrf forwarding RED
 ip address 27.27.27.2 255.255.255.0
 crypto map MAPA-RED
end

R3#

Remember to choose the correct crypto map !
 
crypto map MAPA-RED 10 gdoi
 set group GDOI-GROUP-RED
 match address 120

and repeat the same test:
 
R5#ping vrf RED 20.33.33.33 source 20.55.55.55
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 20.33.33.33, timeout is 2 seconds:
Packet sent with a source address of 20.55.55.55
.....
Success rate is 0 percent (0/5)
R5#
 
 
R4#ping vrf RED 20.33.33.33 source 20.44.44.44
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 20.33.33.33, timeout is 2 seconds:
Packet sent with a source address of 20.44.44.44
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 72/106/132 ms
R4#

As you see above the new exception works as expected. More information about the GET VPN solution you find here:

What should you know about HA 'override enabled' setting on Fortigate?

High availability is mandatory in most of today's network designs. Only very small companies or branches can run their business without redundancy. When you have Fortigate firewall in your network you have many options to increase network availability. You can use Fortigate Clustering Protocol ( FGCP ) or Virtual Router Redundancy Protocol ( VRRP ). FGCP has two modes: 'override' disabled (default) and 'override' enabled . I'm not going to explain how to set up HA as you can find many resources on Fortinet websites: https://cookbook.fortinet.com/high-availability-two-fortigates-56/ https://cookbook.fortinet.com/high-availability-with-fgcp-56/ Let's recap what is the main difference between them. The default HA setting is 'override' disabled and this is an order of selection an active unit: 1) number of monitored interfaces - when both units have the same number of working (up) interfaces check next parameter 2) HA uptime - an ...

FortiGate and GRE tunnel

Recently I worked on one project where a client requested to re-route web traffic to the GRE tunnel to perform traffic inspection. I would like to share with you what is required if you configure it on FortiGate. We need a new GRE interface and policy base routing (PBR) to change the route for specific source IPs. Of course you need firewall policies to permit the traffic. Let's start with GRE interface. Unfortunately you can't configure it using the GUI, only CLI is the option: config system gre-tunnel edit "gre1" set interface "port1" set local-gw 55.55.55.55 set remote-gw 44.44.44.44 next end When the end peer is Cisco router, you need to set the IP for the GRE interface: config system interface edit gre1 set ip 192.168.10.10 255.255.255.255 set remote-ip192.168.10.20 end In next step we need to fix routing. We need the alternate path via GRE but to keep the route in the active routing table you need to set the same AD (adminis...

IKEv1 aggresive mode

I know that IKEv2 is getting popular but still IKEv1 has a huge presence in production networks. There are many reasons but I’m not going to focus on them. I would rather focus on one issue I see from time to time: ikev1 and an aggressive mode. Just to remind you, there are two modes of ikev1: aggressive and main. The first one is much faster, only three messages are exchanged, but it isn’t secure as the main mode (with six messages). The main problem with the aggressive mode is the first two messages  contain data which may help to perform attack on your VPN. For this test I set up VPN on ASA with ‘aggressive mode’ enabled: ciscoasa# sh run crypto crypto ipsec ikev1 transform-set TS esp-3des esp-md5-hmac crypto map MAPA 10 match address ACL crypto map MAPA 10 set peer 192.168.111.128 crypto map MAPA 10 set ikev1 transform-set TS crypto map MAPA interface inside crypto ikev1 enable inside crypto ikev1 policy 10  authentication pre-share  encryption 3des  hash md5...
