Implementing Dynamic Multipoint VPN for IPv6


First Published: July 11, 2008
Last Updated: July 11, 2008

This document describes how to implement Dynamic Multipoint VPN for IPv6 feature, which allows users to better scale large and small IPsec Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) by combining generic routing encapsulation (GRE) tunnels, IP security (IPsec) encryption, and the Next Hop Resolution Protocol (NHRP). In Dynamic Multipoint Virtual Private Network (DMVPN) for IPv6, the public network (the Internet) is a pure IPv4 network, and the private network (the intranet) is IPv6 capable.

Feature Information for Implementing DMVPN for IPv6

Prerequisites for Implementing DMVPN for IPv6

This document assumes that you are familiar with IPv6 and IPv4. See the publications referenced in the "Additional References" section for IPv6 and IPv4 configuration and command reference information.

Perform basic IPv6 addressing and basic connectivity as described in "Implementing IPv6 Addressing and Basic Connectivity."

Supported routing protocols include Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP), On-Demand Routing (ODR), Open Shortest Path First (OSPF), and Routing Information Protocol (RIP). One of these protocols must be enabled for DMVPN for IPv6 to work.

Restrictions for Implementing DMVPN for IPv6

IPV6 can be configured only on the protected network.

Every IPv6 NHRP interface is configured with one IPv6 unicast address. This address can be a globally reachable or unique local address.

Every IPv6 NHRP interface is configured with one IPv6 link-local address that is unique across all the DMVPN hosts in the DMVPN cloud (that is, the hubs and spokes).

IPv6 VRFs are not supported fully by IPv6 routing protocols such as EIGRP or OSPF. Therefore, DMVPN for IPv6 does not support IPv6 VRFs.

The WAN network has to be a IPv4 network.

Information About Implementing DMVPN for IPv6

To configure DMVPN for Cisco IOS software, you must understand the following concept:

DMVPN for IPv6 Overview

DMVPN for IPv6 Overview

The DMVPN feature combines NHRP routing, multipoint generic routing encapsulation (mGRE) tunnels, and IPsec encryption to provide users an ease of configuration via crypto profiles—which override the requirement for defining static crypto maps—and dynamic discovery of tunnel endpoints.

This feature relies on the following Cisco enhanced standard technologies:

NHRP—A client and server protocol where the hub is the server and the spokes are the clients. The hub maintains an NHRP database of the public interface addresses of each spoke. Each spoke registers its real address when it boots and queries the NHRP database for real addresses of the destination spokes to build direct tunnels.

mGRE tunnel interface—An mGRE tunnel interface allows a single GRE interface to support multiple IPsec tunnels and simplifies the size and complexity of the configuration.

IPsec encryption—An IPsec tunnel interface allows for the protection of site-to-site IPv6 traffic with native encapsulation.

In DMVPN for IPv6, the public network (the Internet) is a pure IPv4 network, and the private network (the intranet) is IPv6 capable. The intranets could be a mix of IPv4 or IPv6 clouds connected to each other using the DMVPN technologies, with the underlying carrier being traditional IPv4.

NHRP Routing

The NHRP protocol resolves a given intranet address (IPv4 or IPv6) to an Internet address (IPv4 nonbroadcast multiaccess [NBMA] address).

In Figure 1, the intranets that are connected over the DMVPN network are IPv6 clouds, and the Internet is a pure IPv4 cloud. Spokes S1 and S2 are connected to the Hub H over the Internet using a statically configured mGRE tunnel. The address of the tunnel itself is in the IPv6 domain, because it is another node on the intranet. The source and destinations of the tunnel (the mGRE endpoints), however, are always in IPv4, in the Internet domain. The mGRE tunnel is aware of the IPv6 network because the GRE passenger protocol is an IPv6 packet, and the GRE transport (or carrier) protocol is an IPv4 packet.

Figure 1 IPv6 Topology That Triggers NHRP

When an IPv6 host in LAN L1 sends a packet destined to an IPv6 host in LAN L2, the packet is first routed to the gateway (which is Spoke S1) in LAN L1. Spoke S1 is a dual-stack router, which means both IPv4 and IPv6 are configured. The IPv6 routing table in S1 points to a next hop, which is the IPv6 address of the tunnel on Spoke S2. This is a VPN address that must be mapped to an NBMA address, triggering NHRP.

IPv6 NHRP Redirect and Shortcut Features

When IPv6 NHRP redirect is enabled, NHRP examines every data packet in the output feature path. If the data packet enters and leaves on the same logical network, it sends an NHRP traffic indication message to the originator of the data packet. In NHRP, a logical network is identified by the NHRP network ID, which groups multiple physical interfaces into a single logical network.

When IPv6 NHRP shortcut is enabled, NHRP intercepts every data packet in the output feature path. It checks to see if there is an NHRP cache entry to the destination of the data packet and, if yes, it replaces the current output adjacency with the one present in the NHRP cache. The data packet is therefore switched out using the new adjacency provided by NHRP.

IPv6 Routing

NHRP is automatically invoked for mGRE tunnels carrying the IPv6 passenger protocol. When a packet is routed and the packet is sent to the switching path, NHRP looks up the given next hop and, if required, initiates an NHRP resolution query. If the resolution is successful, NHRP populates the tunnel endpoint database, which then populates the Cisco Express Forwarding adjacency table. The subsequent packets are Cisco Express Forwarding switched if Cisco Express Forwarding is enabled.

IPv6 Addressing and Restrictions

IPv6 allows multiple unicast addresses on a given IPv6 interface. IPv6 also allows special address types, such as anycast, multicast, link-local addresses, and unicast addresses.

DMVPN for IPv6 has the following addressing restrictions:

Every IPv6 NHRP interface is configured with one IPv6 unicast address. This address can be a globally reachable or unique local address.

Every IPv6 NHRP interface is configured with one IPv6 link-local address that is unique across all the DMVPN hosts in the DMVPN cloud (that is, the hubs and spokes).

If no other tunnels on the router are using the same tunnel source, then the tunnel source address can be embedded into an IPv6 address.

If the router has only one DMVPN IPv6 tunnel, then manual configuration of the IPv6 link-local address is not required. Instead, use the ipv6 enable command to autogenerate a link-local address.

If the router has more than one DMVPN IPv6 tunnel, then the link-local address must be manually configured using the ipv6 address fe80::2001 link-local command.

How to Configure DMVPN for IPv6

To enable mGRE and IPsec tunneling for hub and spoke routers, you must configure an IPsec profile that uses a global IPsec policy template and configure your mGRE tunnel for IPsec encryption. This section contains the following procedures:

Configuring an IPsec Profile in DMVPN for IPv6 (required)

Configuring the Hub for IPv6 over DMVPN (required)

Configuring the Spoke for IPv6 over DMVPN (required)

Verifying DMVPN for IPv6 Configuration (optional)

Monitoring and Maintaining DMVPN for IPv6 Configuration and Operation (optional)

Configuring an IPsec Profile in DMVPN for IPv6

The IPsec profile shares most of the same commands with the crypto map configuration, but only a subset of the commands are valid in an IPsec profile. Only commands that pertain to an IPsec policy can be issued under an IPsec profile; you cannot specify the IPsec peer address or the access control list (ACL) to match the packets that are to be encrypted.

Prerequisites

Before configuring an IPsec profile, you must do the following:

Define a transform set by using the crypto ipsec transform-set command.

Make sure that Internet Security Association Key Management Protocol (ISAKMP) is configured with default ISAKMP settings. For further information about default ISAKMP settings, see the Implementing IPsec in IPv6 Security module and the Cisco IOS IPv6 Command Reference.

DMVPN for IPv6

12.4(20)T

The Dynamic Multipoint VPN feature allows users to better scale large and small IPsec Virtual Private Networks by combining generic routing encapsulation tunnels, IPsec encryption, and NHRP. In DMVPN for IPv6, the public network (the Internet) is a pure IPv4 network, and the private network (the intranet) is IPv6 capable.
