Configuring LAN-to-LAN IPsec VPNs

A LAN-to-LAN VPN connects networks in different geographic locations.


The ASA supports LAN-to-LAN VPN connections to Cisco or third-party peers when the two peers have
IPv4 inside and outside networks (IPv4 addresses on the inside and outside interfaces).
For LAN-to-LAN connections using mixed IPv4 and IPv6 addressing, or all IPv6 addressing, the
security appliance supports VPN tunnels if both peers are ASA 5500 series adaptive security appliances,
and if both inside networks have matching addressing schemes (both IPv4 or both IPv6).
Specifically, the following topologies are supported when both peers are ASA 5500 series:
• The ASAs have IPv4 inside networks and the outside network is IPv6 (IPv4 addresses on the inside
interfaces and IPv6 addresses on the outside interfaces).
• The ASAs have IPv6 inside networks and the outside network is IPv4 (IPv6 addresses on the inside
interface and IPv4 addresses on the outside interfaces).
• The ASAs have IPv6 inside networks and the outside network is IPv6 (IPv6 addresses on the inside
and outside interfaces).

Note The ASA supports LAN-to-LAN IPsec connections with Cisco peers, and with third-party peers that
comply with all relevant standards.

Configuring Site-to-Site VPN in Multi-Context Mode


Follow these steps to allow site-to-site support in multi-mode for all platforms except the 5505. By
performing these steps, you can see how resource allocation breaks down.
Step 1 To configure the VPN in multi-mode, configure a resource class and choose VPN licenses as part of the
allowed resource. The “Configuring a Class for Resource Management” section on page 1-17 provides
these configuration steps. The following is an example configuration:
class ctx1
limit-resource VPN Burst Other 100
limit-resource VPN Other 1000

Step 2 Configure a context and make it a member of the configured class that allows VPN licenses. The
“Configuring a Security Context” section on page 1-19 provides these configuration steps. The
following is an example configuration:
context context1
member ctx1
allocate-interface GigabitEthernet3/0.2
allocate-interface GigabitEthernet3/1.2
allocate-interface Management0/0

join-failover-group 1
Step 3 Configure connection profiles, policies, crypto maps, and so on, just as would with single context VPN
configuration of site-to-site VPN.

Configuring Interfaces
An ASA has at least two interfaces, referred to here as outside and inside. Typically, the outside interface
is connected to the public Internet, while the inside interface is connected to a private network and is
protected from public access.
To begin, configure and enable two interfaces on the ASA. Then, assign a name, IP address and subnet
mask. Optionally, configure its security level, speed, and duplex operation on the security appliance.

Note The ASA’s outside interface address (for both IPv4/IPv6) cannot overlap with the private side
address space.

To configure interfaces, perform the following steps, using the command syntax in the examples:

Step 1 To enter Interface configuration mode, in global configuration mode enter the interface command with
the default name of the interface to configure. In the following example the interface is ethernet0.
hostname(config)# interface ethernet0/0
hostname(config-if)#

Step 2 To set the IP address and subnet mask for the interface, enter the ip address command. In the following
example the IP address is 10.10.4.100 and the subnet mask is 255.255.0.0.
hostname(config-if)# ip address 10.10.4.100 255.255.0.0
hostname(config-if)#

Step 3 To name the interface, enter the nameif command, maximum of 48 characters. You cannot change this
name after you set it. In the following example the name of the ethernet0 interface is outside.
hostname(config-if)# nameif outside
hostname(config-if)##

Step 4 To enable the interface, enter the no version of the shutdown command. By default, interfaces are
disabled.
hostname(config-if)# no shutdown
hostname(config-if)#

Step 5 To save your changes, enter the write memory command:


hostname(config-if)# write memory
hostname(config-if)#

Step 6 To configure a second interface, use the same procedure.

Chapter 1 Configuring LAN-to-LAN IPsec VPNs
Configuring ISAKMP Policy and Enabling ISAKMP on the Outside Interface

Configuring ISAKMP Policy and Enabling ISAKMP on the


Outside Interface
ISAKMP is the negotiation protocol that lets two hosts agree on how to build an IPsec security
association (SA). It provides a common framework for agreeing on the format of SA attributes. This
includes negotiating with the peer about the SA, and modifying or deleting the SA. ISAKMP separates
negotiation into two phases: Phase 1 and Phase 2. Phase 1 creates the first tunnel, which protects later
ISAKMP negotiation messages. Phase 2 creates the tunnel that protects data.
IKE uses ISAKMP to setup the SA for IPsec to use. IKE creates the cryptographic keys used to
authenticate peers.
The ASA supports IKEv1 for connections from the legacy Cisco VPN client, and IKEv2 for the
AnyConnect VPN client.
To set the terms of the ISAKMP negotiations, you create an IKE policy, which includes the following:
• The authentication type required of the IKEv1 peer, either RSA signature using certificates or
preshared key (PSK).
• An encryption method, to protect the data and ensure privacy.
• A Hashed Message Authentication Codes (HMAC) method to ensure the identity of the sender, and
to ensure that the message has not been modified in transit.
• A Diffie-Hellman group to determine the strength of the encryption-key-determination algorithm.
The ASA uses this algorithm to derive the encryption and hash keys.
• For IKEv2, a separate pseudo-random function (PRF) used as the algorithm to derive keying
material and hashing operations required for the IKEv2 tunnel encryption, etc.
• A limit to the time the ASA uses an encryption key before replacing it.
With IKEv1 policies, for each parameter, you set one value. For IKEv2, you can configure multiple
encryption and authentication types, and multiple integrity algorithms for a single policy. The ASA
orders the settings from the most secure to the least secure and negotiates with the peer using that order.
This allows you to potentially send a single proposal to convey all the allowed transforms instead of the
need to send each allowed combination as with IKEv1.
The following sections provide procedures for creating IKEv1 and IKEv2 policies and enabling them on
an interface:
• Configuring ISAKMP Policies for IKEv1 Connections, page 1-4
• Configuring ISAKMP Policies for IKEv2 Connections, page 1-5

Configuring ISAKMP Policies for IKEv1 Connections


To configure ISAKMP policies for IKEv1 connections, use the crypto ikev1 policy priority command
to enter IKEv1 policy configuration mode where you can configure the IKEv1 parameters.
Perform the following steps and use the command syntax in the following examples as a guide.

Step 1 Enter IPsec IKEv1 policy configuration mode. For example:


hostname(config)# crypto ikev1 policy 1
hostname(config-ikev1-policy)#

Step 2 Set the authentication method. The following example configures a preshared key:

Cisco ASA Series CLI Configuration Guide

Chapter 1 Configuring LAN-to-LAN IPsec VPNs
Configuring ISAKMP Policy and Enabling ISAKMP on the Outside Interface

hostname(config-ikev1-policy)# authentication pre-share


hostname(config-ikev1-policy)#

Step 3 Set the encryption method. The following example configures 3DES:
hostname(config-ikev1-policy)# encryption 3des
hostname(config-ikev1-policy)#

Step 4 Set the HMAC method. The following example configures SHA-1:
hostname(config-ikev1-policy)# hash sha
hostname(config-ikev1-policy)#

Step 5 Set the Diffie-Hellman group. The following example configures Group 2:
hostname(config-ikev1-policy)# group 2
hostname(config-ikev1-policy)#

Step 6 Set the encryption key lifetime. The following example configures 43,200 seconds (12 hours):
hostname(config-ikev1-policy)# lifetime 43200
hostname(config-ikev1-policy)#

Step 7 Enable IKEv1 on the interface named outside in either single or multiple context mode:
hostname(config)# crypto ikev1 enable outside
hostname(config)#

Step 8 To save your changes, enter the write memory command:


hostname(config)# write memory
hostname(config)#

Configuring ISAKMP Policies for IKEv2 Connections


To configure ISAKMP policies for IKEv2 connections, use the crypto ikev2 policy priority command
to enter IKEv2 policy configuration mode where you can configure the IKEv2 parameters.
Perform the following steps:

Step 1 Enter IPsec IKEv2 policy configuration mode. For example:


hostname(config)# crypto ikev2 policy 1
hostname(config-ikev2-policy)#

Step 2 Set the encryption method. The following example configures 3DES:
hostname(config-ikev2-policy)# encryption 3des
hostname(config-ikev2-policy)#

Step 3 Set the Diffie-Hellman group. The following example configures Group 2:
hostname(config-ikev2-policy)# group 2
hostname(config-ikev2-policy)#

Step 4 Set the pseudo-random function (PRF) used as the algorithm to derive keying material and hashing
operations required for the IKEv2 tunnel encryption. The following example configures SHA-1 (an
HMAC variant):
hostname(config-ikev12-policy)# prf sha
hostname(config-ikev2-policy)#

Cisco ASA Series CLI Configuration Guide

Chapter 1 Configuring LAN-to-LAN IPsec VPNs
Creating an IKEv1 Transform Set

Step 5 Set the encryption key lifetime. The following example configures 43,200 seconds (12 hours):
hostname(config-ikev2-policy)# lifetime seconds 43200
hostname(config-ikev2-policy)#

Step 6 Enable IKEv2 on the interface named outside:


hostname(config)# crypto ikev2 enable outside
hostname(config)#

Step 7 To save your changes, enter the write memory command:


hostname(config)# write memory
hostname(config)#

Creating an IKEv1 Transform Set


An IKEv1 transform set combines an encryption method and an authentication method. During the IPsec
security association negotiation with ISAKMP, the peers agree to use a particular transform set to protect
a particular data flow. The transform set must be the same for both peers.
A transform set protects the data flows for the access list specified in the associated crypto map entry.
You can create transform sets in the ASA configuration, and then specify a maximum of 11 of them in
a crypto map or dynamic crypto map entry.
Table 1-1 lists valid encryption and authentication methods.

Table 1-1 Valid Encryption and Authentication Methods

Valid Encryption Methods Valid Authentication Methods


esp-des esp-md5-hmac
esp-3des (default) esp-sha-hmac (default)
esp-aes (128-bit encryption)
esp-aes-192
esp-aes-256
esp-null

Tunnel Mode is the usual way to implement IPsec between two ASAs that are connected over an
untrusted network, such as the public Internet. Tunnel mode is the default and requires no configuration.
To configure a transform set, perform the following site-to-site tasks in either single or multiple context
mode:

Step 1 In global configuration mode enter the crypto ipsec ikev1 transform-set command. The following
example configures a transform set with the name FirstSet, esp-3des encryption, and esp-md5-hmac
authentication. The syntax is as follows:
crypto ipsec ikev1 transform-set transform-set-name encryption-method authentication-method
hostname(config)# crypto ipsec transform-set FirstSet esp-3des esp-md5-hmac
hostname(config)#

Creating an IKEv2 Proposal

Step 2 Save your changes.


hostname(config)# write memory
hostname(config)#

Creating an IKEv2 Proposal


For IKEv2, you can configure multiple encryption and authentication types, and multiple integrity
algorithms for a single policy. The ASA orders the settings from the most secure to the least secure and
negotiates with the peer using that order. This allows you to potentially send a single proposal to convey
all the allowed transforms instead of the need to send each allowed combination as with IKEv1.
Table 1-1 lists valid IKEv2 encryption and authentication methods.

Table 1-2 Valid IKEv2 Encryption and Integrity Methods

Valid Encryption Methods Valid Integrity Methods


des sha (default)
3des (default) md5
aes
aes-192
aes-256

To configure an IKEv2 proposal, perform the following tasks in either single or multiple context mode:

Step 1 In global configuration mode, use the crypto ipsec ikev2 ipsec-proposal command to enter ipsec
proposal configuration mode where you can specify multiple encryption and integrity types for the
proposal. In this example, secure is the name of the proposal:
hostname(config)# crypto ipsec ikev2 ipsec-proposal secure
hostname(config-ipsec-proposal)#

Step 2 Then enter a protocol and encryption types. ESP is the only supported protocol. For example:
hostname(config-ipsec-proposal)# protocol esp encryption 3des aes des
hostname(config-ipsec-proposal)#

Step 3 Enter an integrity type. For example:


hostname(config-ipsec-proposal)# protocol esp integrity sha-1
hostname(config-ipsec-proposal)#

Step 4 Save your changes.

Configuring an ACL
The ASA uses access control lists to control network access. By default, the adaptive security appliance
denies all traffic. You need to configure an ACL that permits traffic.

Cisco ASA Series CLI Configuration Guide


1-7
Chapter 1 Configuring LAN-to-LAN IPsec VPNs
Defining a Tunnel Group

The ACLs that you configure for this LAN-to-LAN VPN control connections are based on the source
and translated destination IP addresses. Configure ACLs that mirror each other on both sides of the
connection.
An ACL for VPN traffic uses the translated address.
To configure an ACL, perform the following steps:

Step 1 Enter the access-list extended command. The following example configures an ACL named l2l_list that
lets traffic from IP addresses in the 192.168.0.0 network travel to the 150.150.0.0 network. The syntax
is access-list listname extended permit ip source-ipaddress source-netmask destination-ipaddress
destination-netmask.
hostname(config)# access-list l2l_list extended permit ip 192.168.0.0 255.255.0.0
150.150.0.0 255.255.0.0
hostname(config)#

Step 2 Configure an ACL for the ASA on the other side of the connection that mirrors the ACL. In the following
example, the prompt for the peer is hostname2.
hostname2(config)# access-list l2l_list extended permit ip 150.150.0.0 255.255.0.0
192.168.0.0 255.255.0.0
hostname(config)#

Defining a Tunnel Group


A tunnel group is a set of records that contain tunnel connection policies. You configure a tunnel group
to identify AAA servers, specify connection parameters, and define a default group policy. The ASA
stores tunnel groups internally.
There are two default tunnel groups in the ASA: DefaultRAGroup, which is the default IPsec
remote-access tunnel group, and DefaultL2Lgroup, which is the default IPsec LAN-to-LAN tunnel
group. You can modify them but not delete them.
The main difference between IKE versions 1 and 2 lies in terms of the authentication method they allow.
IKEv1 allows only one type of authentication at both VPN ends (that is, either pre-shared key or
certificate). However, IKEv2 allows assymetric authentication methods to be configured (that is,
pre-shared key authentication for the originator but certificate authentication for the responder) using
separate local and remote authentication CLIs. Therefore, with IKEv2 you have assymmetric
authentication where one side authenticates with one credential whereas the other side uses another
credential (either pre-shared key or certificate).
You can also create one or more new tunnel groups to suit your environment. The ASA uses these groups
to configure default tunnel parameters for remote access and LAN-to-LAN tunnel groups when there is
no specific tunnel group identified during tunnel negotiation.
To establish a basic LAN-to-LAN connection, you must set two attributes for a tunnel group:
• Set the connection type to IPsec LAN-to-LAN.
• Configure an authentication method for the IP, in the following example, preshared key for IKEv1
and IKEv2.

Note To use VPNs, including tunnel groups, the ASA must be in single-routed mode. The commands to
configure tunnel-group parameters do not appear in any other mode.

Cisco ASA Series CLI Configuration Guide


1-8
Chapter 1 Configuring LAN-to-LAN IPsec VPNs
Creating a Crypto Map and Applying It To an Interface

Step 1 To set the connection type to IPsec LAN-to-LAN, enter the tunnel-group command. The syntax is
tunnel-group name type type, where name is the name you assign to the tunnel group, and type is the
type of tunnel. The tunnel types as you enter them in the CLI are:
• remote-access (IPsec, SSL, and clientless SSL remote access)
• ipsec-l2l (IPsec LAN to LAN)
In the following example the name of the tunnel group is the IP address of the LAN-to-LAN peer,
10.10.4.108.
hostname(config)# tunnel-group 10.10.4.108 type ipsec-l2l
hostname(config)#

Note LAN-to-LAN tunnel groups that have names that are not an IP address can be used only if the
tunnel authentication method is Digital Certificates and/or the peer is configured to use
Aggressive Mode.

Step 2 To set the authentication method to preshared key, enter the ipsec-attributes mode and then enter the
ikev1 pre-shared-key command to create the preshared key. You need to use the same preshared key on
both ASAs for this LAN-to-LAN connection.
The key is an alphanumeric string of 1-128 characters.
In the following example the IKEv1 preshared key is 44kkaol59636jnfx:
hostname(config)# tunnel-group 10.10.4.108 ipsec-attributes
hostname(config-tunnel-ipsec)# pre-shared-key 44kkaol59636jnfx

In the next example, the IKEv2 preshared key is configured also as 44kkaol59636jnfx:
hostname(config-tunnel-ipsec)# ikev2 local-authentication pre-shared-key 44kkaol59636jnfx

Note You must configure ikev2 remote-authentication pre-shared-key or a certificate to complete the
authentication.

Step 3 Save your changes.


hostname(config)# write memory
hostname(config)#

To verify that the tunnel is up and running, use the show vpn-sessiondb summary, show vpn-sessiondb
detail l2l, or show cry ipsec sa command.

Creating a Crypto Map and Applying It To an Interface


Crypto map entries pull together the various elements of IPsec security associations, including the
following:
• Which traffic IPsec should protect, which you define in an access list.
• Where to send IPsec-protected traffic, by identifying the peer.
• What IPsec security applies to this traffic, which a transform set specifies.
• The local address for IPsec traffic, which you identify by applying the crypto map to an interface.

Cisco ASA Series CLI Configuration Guide


1-9
Chapter 1 Configuring LAN-to-LAN IPsec VPNs
Creating a Crypto Map and Applying It To an Interface

For IPsec to succeed, both peers must have crypto map entries with compatible configurations. For two
crypto map entries to be compatible, they must, at a minimum, meet the following criteria:
• The crypto map entries must contain compatible crypto access lists (for example, mirror image
access lists). If the responding peer uses dynamic crypto maps, the entries in the ASA crypto access
list must be “permitted” by the peer’s crypto access list.
• The crypto map entries each must identify the other peer (unless the responding peer is using a
dynamic crypto map).
• The crypto map entries must have at least one transform set in common.
If you create more than one crypto map entry for a given interface, use the sequence number (seq-num)
of each entry to rank it: the lower the seq-num, the higher the priority. At the interface that has the crypto
map set, the ASA evaluates traffic against the entries of higher priority maps first.
Create multiple crypto map entries for a given interface if either of the following conditions exist:
• Different peers handle different data flows.
• You want to apply different IPsec security to different types of traffic (to the same or separate peers),
for example, if you want traffic between one set of subnets to be authenticated, and traffic between
another set of subnets to be both authenticated and encrypted. In this case, define the different types
of traffic in two separate access lists, and create a separate crypto map entry for each crypto access
list.
To create a crypto map and apply it to the outside interface in global configuration mode, perform the
following steps in either single or multiple context mode:

Step 1 To assign an access list to a crypto map entry, enter the crypto map match address command.
The syntax is crypto map map-name seq-num match address aclname. In the following example the
map name is abcmap, the sequence number is 1, and the access list name is l2l_list.
hostname(config)# crypto map abcmap 1 match address l2l_list
hostname(config)#

Step 2 To identify the peer (s) for the IPsec connection, enter the crypto map set peer command.
The syntax is crypto map map-name seq-num set peer {ip_address1 | hostname1}[... ip_address10 |
hostname10]. In the following example the peer name is 10.10.4.108.
hostname(config)# crypto map abcmap 1 set peer 10.10.4.108
hostname(config)#

Step 3 To specify an IKEv1 transform set for a crypto map entry, enter the crypto map ikev1 set transform-set
command.
The syntax is crypto map map-name seq-num ikev1 set transform-set transform-set-name.
In the following example the transform set name is FirstSet.
hostname(config)# crypto map abcmap 1 set transform-set FirstSet
hostname(config)#

Step 4 To specify an IKEv2 proposal for a crypto map entry, enter the crypto map ikev2 set ipsec-proposal
command:
The syntax is crypto map map-name seq-num set ikev2 ipsec-proposal proposal-name.
In the following example the proposal name is secure.
With the crypto map command, you can specify multiple IPsec proposals for a single map index. In that
case, multiple proposals are transmitted to the IKEv2 peer as part of the negotiation, and the order of the
proposals is determined by the administrator upon the ordering of the crypto map entry.

Cisco ASA Series CLI Configuration Guide


1-10
Chapter 1 Configuring LAN-to-LAN IPsec VPNs
Creating a Crypto Map and Applying It To an Interface

Note If combined mode (AES-GCM/GMAC) and normal mode (all others) algorithms exist in the
IPsec proposal, then you cannot send a single proposal to the peer. You must have at least two
proposals in this case, one for combined mode and one for normal mode algorithms.

hostname(config)# crypto map abcmap 1 set ikev2 ipsec-proposal secure


hostname(config)#

Applying Crypto Maps to Interfaces


You must apply a crypto map set to each interface through which IPsec traffic travels. The ASA supports
IPsec on all interfaces. Applying the crypto map set to an interface instructs the ASA to evaluate all
interface traffic against the crypto map set and to use the specified policy during connection or security
association negotiations.
Binding a crypto map to an interface also initializes the runtime data structures, such as the security
association database and the security policy database. When you later modify a crypto map in any way,
the ASA automatically applies the changes to the running configuration. It drops any existing
connections and reestablishes them after applying the new crypto map.
To apply the configured crypto map to the outside interface, perform the following steps:

Step 1 Enter the crypto map interface command. The syntax is crypto map map-name interface
interface-name.
hostname(config)# crypto map abcmap interface outside
hostname(config)#

Step 2 Save your changes.


hostname(config)# write memory
hostname(config)#
