Router MC Scenarios
An example VPN scenario has been created to guide you through the process of creating a simple, basic VPN over an existing network and give you hands-on experience with the application. The example scenario covers the basic user workflow described in Understanding the Router MC User Taskflow, page 1-9.
Additional scenarios are provided that are based on this end-to-end basic VPN scenario. They provide step-by-step instructions that guide you through the procedures for configuring the more advanced features of Router MC. You must complete the example VPN scenario before you can practice the additional scenarios.
The following topics provide information about the Router MC scenarios:

Scenario 3: Configuring GRE for Failover and Routing
•
Scenario 4: Uploading Existing VPN Configurations into Router MC
Overview of Scenarios
The following scenarios are covered:
•
Scenario 1 shows you how to configure a basic site-to-site VPN between a corporate site and its remote site, across an existing public network. All the other scenarios (2 through 4) are based on this example VPN scenario. See Scenario 1: Configuring a Basic VPN with Router MC for more information.
•
Scenario 2 shows you how to use split-tunneling to transmit both encrypted and unencrypted traffic on the same interface. Split tunneling requires that you specify exactly which traffic will be secured, so that only the specified traffic enters the IPSec tunnel, while the rest is transmitted unencrypted across the public network. See Scenario 2: Designating Specific Traffic to be Tunneled for more information.
•
Scenario 3 shows you how to configure Generic Routing Encapsulation (GRE) for advanced failover and resiliency. Using GRE, one IPSec peer can know the status of other IPSec peers at all times, a greater level of resiliency is possible than with IKE keepalive, spoke-to-spoke connectivity is possible, and multicast and broadcast transmissions are also supported.
See Scenario 3: Configuring GRE for Failover and Routing for more information.
•
Scenario 4 shows you how to upload existing VPN configurations on a device into Router MC, without having to redefine these VPN configurations in Router MC. See Scenario 4: Uploading Existing VPN Configurations into Router MC for more information.
Scenario 1: Configuring a Basic VPN with Router MC
This example scenario takes you through the steps required to create a simple, basic VPN over an existing public network.
The scenario takes you through the following tasks:
•
Understanding the Example VPN
•
Task 1: Creating a Device Group
•
Task 2: Importing Devices
•
Task 3: Defining VPN Settings
•
Task 4: Defining an IKE Policy
•
Task 5: Defining a Tunnel Policy
•
Task 6: Deploying Your Policies
Note
Sample configuration files for the example VPN are provided with the Router MC installation files on Cisco.com, in the Example Configs directory (or on the Router MC CD-ROM, if you installed the application from a CD-ROM). These sample configuration files will allow you to work through the example VPN without using your own network devices. You must copy these sample files to a directory on the Router MC server before importing them into your device inventory.
Understanding the Example VPN
The basic site-to-site VPN in the scenario consists of a secure connection between a corporate site (central office) and its remote site (branch office) across a public network. Figure 1-1 shows an example of the basic VPN.
The goal of the scenario is to create a site-to-site VPN between the San Jose corporate site and the San Francisco remote site.
In the VPN, the San Jose corporate site has a primary hub (R1) and a backup hub (R2). The San Francisco remote site has two devices (R3 and R4). All devices at both sites are contained in the California device group. The default IKE Keepalive will be used for resiliency.
All traffic between the San Jose Corporate Management subnets and the San Francisco HR and Sales subnets is tunneled, using moderate security. The subnets are directly attached to the inside interfaces of the hubs at the San Jose corporate site, and the inside interfaces of the spokes at the San Francisco remote site.
Figure 1-1 Site-to-Site Example VPN
Table 1-1 contains specific information about the devices used in the example VPN. The configuration files for these devices are provided with the Router MC installation files on Cisco.com, in the Example Configs directory (or on the Router MC CD-ROM, if you installed the application from a CD-ROM).

For either format, a list is displayed of permit and deny commands that the defined configuration requires for implementation. Additional configuration information is also displayed.
You have completed the tasks for configuring the end-to-end basic VPN scenario.
You can now perform the additional scenarios 2 through 4, that cover some of the more advanced features of Router MC.
Scenario 2: Designating Specific Traffic to be Tunneled
The goal of this scenario is to create a maximum security tunnel between two peers. This tunnel will encrypt traffic from a Sales subnet host, H2, to a Corporate Management subnet host, H1. The tunnel will have the highest possible security because highly confidential information will be transmitted between the two hosts.
To do this, you will create a new tunnel policy on R4, which will override the SJSF Tunnel policy you created on the California device group. You will create a custom Access Control Entry (ACE) for the filter to specify exactly what traffic you want to tunnel. You will also create a transform set with higher security.
See Chapter 1, "Defining VPN Tunnel Policies" for more information.
Figure 1-7 shows the sample network topology for the split-tunneling scenario.

Scenario 4: Uploading Existing VPN Configurations into Router MC
The goal of this scenario is to upload policy settings from an imported device to a device group. In this scenario, another spoke (R5) will be added to the remote site (San Francisco) created in Scenario 1: Configuring a Basic VPN with Router MC, Task 1: Creating a Device Group. A single configuration file will be imported. The imported device will have an IKE policy that is more secure than the IKE policy on existing devices. The IKE policy from the imported device will be applied to the existing device group, effectively overriding the IKE policy on the device group.
See Chapter 1, "Uploading Device Configurations" for more information.
Figure 1-8 shows the sample network topology after the device has been imported and the VPN configurations on the device have been uploaded.
