> Overview
> IP Security (IPSec) is a suite of protocols that interact with one another to provide secure private communications across IP networks. These protocols allow the system to establish and maintain secure tunnels with peer security gateways. IPSec can be implemented on the system for the following applications:

> • | PDN Access: Subscriber IP traffic is routed over an IPSec tunnel from the system to a secure gateway on the packet data network (PDN) as determined by access control list (ACL) criteria. This application can be implemented for both core network service and HA-based systems. The following figure shows IPSec configurations.

> IPSec Applications

> • | Mobile IP: Mobile IP control signals and subscriber data is encapsulated in IPSec tunnels that are established between foreign agents (FAs) and home agents (HAs) over the Pi interfaces.

> Important: Once an IPSec tunnel is established between an FA and HA for a particular subscriber, all new Mobile IP sessions using the same FA and HA are passed over the tunnel regardless of whether or not IPSec is supported for the new subscriber sessions. Data for existing Mobile IP sessions is unaffected.

> • | L2TP: L2TP-encapsulated packets are routed from the system to an LNS/secure gateway over an IPSec tunnel.

> Note that: IPSec can be implemented for both attribute-based and compulsory tunneling applications for 3GPP2 services.
> The IPSec feature is supported for various products. The following table indicates the products on which the feature is supported and the relevant sections within the chapter that pertain to that product.

> IPSec Terminology
> There are four items related to IPSec support on the system that must be understood prior to beginning configuration. They are:

> • | Crypto Access Control List (ACL)

> • | Transform Set

> • | ISAKMP Policy

> • | Crypto Map

> Crypto Access Control List (ACL)
> As described in the IP Access Control Lists chapter of this guide, ACLs on the system define rules, usually permissions, for handling subscriber data packets that meet certain criteria. Crypto ACLs, however, define the criteria that must be met in order for a subscriber data packet to be routed over an IPSec tunnel.
> Unlike other ACLs that are applied to interfaces, contexts, or one or more subscribers, crypto ACLs are matched with crypto maps. In addition, crypto ACLs contain only a single rule while other ACL types can consist of multiple rules.
> Prior to routing, the system examines the properties of each subscriber data packet. If the packet properties match the criteria specified in the crypto ACL, the system will initiate the IPSec policy dictated by the crypto map.
> Transform Set
> Transform Sets are used to define IPSec security associations (SAs). IPSec SAs specify the IPSec protocols to use to protect packets.
> Transform sets are used during Phase 2 of IPSec establishment. In this phase, the system and a peer security gateway negotiate one or more transform sets (IPSec SAs) containing the rules for protecting packets. This negotiation ensures that both peers can properly protect and process the packets.
> ISAKMP Policy
> Internet Security Association Key Management Protocol (ISAKMP) policies are used to define Internet Key Exchange (IKE) SAs. The IKE SAs dictate the shared security parameters (i.e. which encryption parameters to use, how to authenticate the remote peer, etc.) between the system and a peer security gateway.
> During Phase 1 of IPSec establishment, the system and a peer security gateway negotiate IKE SAs. These SAs are used to protect subsequent communications between the peers including the IPSec SA negotiation process.
> Crypto Map
> Crypto Maps define the tunnel policies that determine how IPSec is implemented for subscriber data packets.
> There are three types of crypto maps supported by the system. They are:

> • | Manual crypto maps

> • | ISAKMP crypto maps

> • | Dynamic crypto maps

> Manual Crypto Maps
> These are static tunnels that use pre-configured information (including security keys) for establishment. Because they rely on statically configured information, once created, the tunnels never expire; they exist until their configuration is deleted.
> Manual crypto maps define the peer security gateway to establish a tunnel with, the security keys to use to establish the tunnel, and the IPSec SA to be used to protect data sent/received over the tunnel. Additionally, manual crypto maps are applied to specific system interfaces.
> Important: Because manual crypto map configurations require the use of static security keys (associations), they are not as secure as crypto maps that rely on dynamically configured keys. Therefore, it is recommended that they only be configured and used for testing purposes.
> ISAKMP Crypto Maps
> These tunnels are similar to manual crypto maps in that they require some statically configured information such as the IP address of a peer security gateway and that they are applied to specific system interfaces.
> However, ISAKMP crypto maps offer greater security because they rely on dynamically generated security associations through the use of the Internet Key Exchange (IKE) protocol.
> When ISAKMP crypto maps are used, the system uses the pre-shared key configured for map as part of the Diffie-Hellman (D-H) exchange with the peer security gateway to initiate Phase 1 of the establishment process. Once the exchange is complete, the system and the security gateway dynamically negotiate IKE SAs to complete Phase 1. In Phase 2, the two peers dynamically negotiate the IPSec SAs used to determine how data traversing the tunnel will be protected.
> Dynamic Crypto Maps
> These tunnels are used for protecting L2TP-encapsulated data between the system and an LNS/security gateway or Mobile IP data between an FA service configured on one system and an HA service configured on another.
> The system determines when to implement IPSec for L2TP-encapsulated data either through attributes returned upon successful authentication for attribute based tunneling, or through the configuration of the LAC service used for compulsory tunneling.
> The system determines when to implement IPSec for Mobile IP based on RADIUS attribute values as well as the configurations of the FA and HA service(s).
> Implementing IPSec for PDN Access Applications
> This section provides information on the following topics:

> • | How the IPSec-based PDN Access Configuration Works

> • | Configuring IPSec Support for PDN Access

> In covering these topics, this section assumes that ISAKMP crypto maps are configured/used as opposed to manual crypto maps.
> How the IPSec-based PDN Access Configuration Works
> The following figure and the text that follows describe how sessions accessing a PDN using IPSec are processed by the system.
> IPSec PDN Access Processing
> IPSec PDN Access Processing

> Step | Description
> 1. | A subscriber session or PDP context Request, in GGSN service, arrives at the system.
> 2. | The system processes the subscriber session or request as it would typically.
> 3. | Prior to routing the session packets, the system compares them against configured Access Control Lists (ACLs).
> 4. | The system determines that the packet matches the criteria of an ACL that is associated with a configured crypto map.
> 5. | From the crypto map, the system determines the following:
> • | The map type, in this case ISAKMP
> • | The pre-shared key used to initiate the Internet Key Exchange (IKE) and the IKE negotiation mode
> • | The IP address of the security gateway
> • | Whether perfect forward secrecy (PFS) should be enabled for the IPSec SA and if so, what group should be used
> • | IPSec SA lifetime parameters
> • | The name of a configured transform set defining the IPSec SA
> 6. | To initiate the IKE SA negotiation, the system performs a Diffie-Hellman exchange of the pre-shared key specified in the crypto map with the specified peer security gateway.
> 7. | The system and the security gateway negotiate an ISAKMP policy (IKE SA) to use to protect further communications.
> 8. | Once the IKE SA has been negotiated, the system negotiates an IPSec SA with the security gateway using the transform method specified in the transform sets.
> 9. | Once the IPSec SA has been negotiated, the system protects the data according to the IPSec SAs established during step 8 and sends it over the IPSec tunnel.

> Configuring IPSec Support for PDN Access
> This section provides a list of the steps required to configure IPSec functionality on the system in support of PDN access. Each step listed refers to a different section containing the specific instructions for completing the required procedure.
> Important: These instructions assume that the system was previously configured to support subscriber data sessions either as a core service or an HA. In addition, parameters configured using this procedure must be configured in the same destination context on the system.

> Step 1 | Configure one or more IP access control lists (ACLs) according to the information and instructions located in IP Access Control Lists chapter of this guide.

> Step 2 | Configure one or more transform sets according to the instructions located in the Transform Set Configuration section of this chapter.

> Step 3 | Configure one or more ISAKMP policies according to the instructions located in the ISAKMP Policy Configuration section of this chapter.

> Step 4 | Configure an ipsec-isakmp crypto map according to the instructions located in the ISAKMP Crypto Map Configuration section of this chapter.

> Step 5 | Apply the crypto map to an interface on the system according to the instructions located in the Crypto Map and Interface Association section of this chapter.

> Step 6 | Save your configuration as described in Verifying and Saving Your Configuration.

> Implementing IPSec for Mobile IP Applications
> This section provides information on the following topics:

> • | How the IPSec-based Mobile IP Configuration Works

> • | Configuring IPSec Support for Mobile IP

> How the IPSec-based Mobile IP Configuration Works
> The following figure and the text that follows describe how Mobile IP sessions using IPSec are processed by the system.
> IPSec-based Mobile IP Session Processing
> IPSec-based Mobile IP Session Processing

> Step | Description
> 1. | FA service receives a Mobile IP registration request from the mobile node.
> 2. | FA sends an Access-Request to the FAAA server with the 3GPP2-IKE-Secret-Request attribute equal to yes.
> 3. | The FAAA proxies the request to the HAAA.
> 4. | The HAAA returns an Access-Accept message including the following attributes:
> • | 3GPP2-Security-Level set to 3 for IPSec tunnels and registration messages
> • | 3GPP2-MIP-HA-Address indicating the IP address of the HA that the FA is to communicate with.
> • | 3GPP2-KeyId providing an identification number for the IKE secret (alternatively, the keys may be statically configured for the FA and/or HA)
> • | 3GPP2-IKE-Secret indicating the pre-shared secret to use to negotiate the IKE SA
> 5. | The FAAA passes the accept message to the FA with all of the attributes.
> 6. | The FA determines if an IPSec SA already exists based on the HA address supplied. If so, that SA will be used. If not, a new IPSec SA will be negotiated.
> 7. | The FA determines the appropriate crypto map to use for IPSec protection based on the HA address attribute. It does this by comparing the address received to those configured using the isakmp peer-ha command. From the crypto map, the system determines the following:
> • | The map type, in this case dynamic
> • | Whether perfect forward secrecy (PFS) should be enabled for the IPSec SA and if so, what group should be used
> • | IPSec SA lifetime parameters
> • | The name of one or more configured transform set defining the IPSec SA
> 8. | To initiate the IKE SA negotiation, the FA performs a Diffie-Hellman (D-H) exchange of the ISAKMP secret specified in the IKE secret attribute with the peer HA dictated by the HA address attribute. Included in the exchange is the Key ID received from the HAAA.
> 9. | Upon receiving the exchange, the HA sends an access request to the HAAA with the following attributes:
> • | 3GPP2-S-Request (note that this attribute is not used if the IPSec keys are statically configured)
> • | 3GPP2-User-name (the username specified is the IP addresses of the FA and HA).
> The password used in the access request is the RADIUS shared secret.
> 10. | The HAAA returns an Access-Accept message to the HA with the following attributes:
> • | 3GPP2-S indicating the “S” secret used to generate the HA’s response to the D-H exchange
> • | 3GPP2-S-Lifetime indicating the length of time that the “S” secret is valid
> • | 3GPP2-Security-Level set to 3 for IPSec tunnels and registration messages (optional)
> 11. | The HA determines the appropriate crypto map to use for IPSec protection based on the FA’s address. It does this by comparing the address received to those configured using the isakmp peer-fa command. From the crypto map, the system determines the following:
> • | The map type, in this case dynamic
> • | Whether perfect forward secrecy (PFS) should be enabled for the IPSec SA and if so, what group should be used
> • | IPSec SA lifetime parameters
> • | The name of one or more configured transform set defining the IPSec SA
> 12. | The HA creates a response to the D-H exchange using the “S” secret and the Key ID sent by the FA.
> 13. | The HA sends IKE SA negotiation D-H exchange response to the FA.
> 14. | The FA and the HA negotiate an ISAKMP (IKE) policy to use to protect further communications.
> 15. | Once the IKE SA has been negotiated, the system negotiates an IPSec SA with the security gateway using the transform method specified in the transform sets.
> 16. | Once the IPSec SA has been negotiated, the system protects the data according to the IPSec SAs established during step 15 and sends it over the IPSec tunnel.

> ‌
> Important: Once an IPSec tunnel is established between an FA and HA for a particular subscriber, all new Mobile IP sessions using the same FA and HA are passed over the tunnel regardless of whether or not IPSec is supported for the new subscriber sessions. Data for existing Mobile IP sessions is unaffected.

> PDSN Service Configuration for L2TP Support
> PDSN service configuration is required for compulsory tunneling and optional for attribute-based tunneling.
> For attribute-based tunneling, a configuration error could occur such that upon successful authentication, the system determines that the subscriber session requires L2TP but can not determine the name of the context in which the appropriate LAC service is configured from the attributes supplied. As a precautionary, a parameter has been added to the PDSN service configuration options that will dictate the name of the context to use. It is strongly recommended that this parameter be configured.

> Redundant IPSec Tunnel Fail-Over
> The Redundant IPSec Tunnel Fail-Over functionality is included with the IPSec feature license and allows the configuration of a secondary ISAKMP crypto map-based IPSec tunnel over which traffic is routed in the event that the primary ISAKMP crypto map-based tunnel cannot be used.
> This feature introduces the concept of crypto (tunnel) groups when using IPSec tunnels for access to packet data networks (PDNs). A crypto group consists of two configured ISAKMP crypto maps. Each crypto map defines the IPSec policy for a tunnel. In the crypto group, one tunnel serves as the primary, the other as the secondary (redundant). Note that the method in which the system determines to encrypt user data in an IPSec tunnel remains unchanged.
> Group tunnels are perpetually maintained with IPSec Dead Peer Detection (DPD) packets exchanged with the peer security gateway.
> Important: The peer security gateway must support RFC 3706 in order for this functionality to function properly.
> When the system determines that incoming user data traffic must be routed over one of the tunnels in a group, the system automatically uses the primary tunnel until either the peer is unreachable (the IPSec DPD packets cease), or the IPSec tunnel fails to re-key. If the primary peer becomes unreachable, the system automatically begins to switch user traffic to the secondary tunnel.
> The system can be configured to either automatically switch user traffic back to the primary tunnel once the corresponding peer security gateway is reachable and the tunnel is configured, or require manual intervention to do so.
> This functionality also supports the generation of Simple network Management Protocol (SNMP) notifications indicating the following conditions:

> • | Primary Tunnel is down: A primary tunnel that was previously "up" is now "down" representing an error condition.

> • | Primary Tunnel is up: A primary tunnel that was previously "down" is now "up".

> • | Secondary tunnel is down: A secondary tunnel that was previously "up" is now "down" representing an error condition.

> • | Secondary Tunnel is up: A secondary tunnel that was previously "down" is now "up".

> • | Fail-over successful: The switchover of user traffic was successful. This is generated for both primary-to-secondary and secondary-to-primary switchovers.

> • | Unsuccessful fail-over: An error occurred when switching user traffic from either the primary to secondary tunnel or the secondary to primary tunnel.

> Supported Standards
> Support for the following standards and requests for comments (RFCs) has been added with the Redundant IPSec Tunnel Fail-over functionality:

> • | RFC 3706, A Traffic-Based Method of Detecting Dead Internet Key Exchange (IKE) Peers, February 2004

> Redundant IPSec Tunnel Fail-over Configuration
> This section provides information and instructions for configuring the Redundant IPSec Tunnel Fail-over feature. These instructions assume that the system was previously configured to support subscriber data sessions either as a core service or an HA.
> Important: Parameters configured using this procedure must be configured in the same context on the system.
> Important: The system supports a maximum of 32 crypto groups per context. However, configuring crypto groups to use the same loopback interface for secondary IPSec tunnels is not recommended and may compromise redundancy on the chassis.
> Important: This section provides the minimum instruction set for configuring crypto groups on the system. For more information on commands that configure additional parameters and options, refer Command Line Interface Reference.
> To configure the Crypto group to support IPSec:

> Step 1 | Configure a crypto group by following the steps in the Configuring Crypto Group section

> Step 2 | Configure one or more ISAKMP policies according to the instructions provided in the ISAKMP Policy Configuration section of this chapter.

> Step 3 | Configure IPSec DPD settings using the instructions provided in the Dead Peer Detection (DPD) Configuration section of this chapter.

> Step 6 | Verify your Crypto Group configuration by following the steps in the Verifying the Crypto Group Configuration section.

> Step 7 | Save your configuration as described in the Verifying and Saving Your Configuration chapter.

> Configuring Crypto Group
> Use the following example to configure a crypto group on your system for redundant IPSec tunnel fail-over support:
> configure
> context <ctxt_name>
> ikev1 keepalive dpd interval <dur> timeout <dur> num-retry <retries>
> crypto-group <group_name>
> match address <acl_name> [ <preference> ]
> switchover auto [ do-not-revert ]
> end
> Notes:

> • | <ctxt_name> is the destination context where the Crypto Group is to be configured.

> • | <group_name> is name of the Crypto group you want to configure for IPSec tunnel failover support.

> • | <acl_name> is name of the pre-configured crypto ACL. It is used for configurations not implementing the IPSec Tunnel Failover feature and match the crypto map to a previously defined crypto ACL. For more information on crypto ACL, refer Crypto Access Control List (ACL) section of this chapter.

> Notes:

> • | <ctxt_name> is the system context in which you wish to create and configure the ISAKMP crypto maps.

> • | <group_name> is name of the Crypto group configured in the same context for IPSec Tunnel Failover feature.

> • | <map_name1> is name of the preconfigured ISAKMP crypto map to match with crypto group as primary.

> • | <map_name2> is name of the preconfigured ISAKMP crypto map to match with crypto group as secondary.

> Verifying the Crypto Group Configuration
> These instructions are used to verify the crypto group configuration.

> Step 1 | Verify that your system is configured properly with crypto group by entering the following command in Exec Mode in specific context:

> sshow crypto group [ summary | name group_name ]
> The output of this command is a concise listing of crypto group parameter settings configured on the system.
> Dead Peer Detection (DPD) Configuration
> This section provides instructions for configuring the Dead Peer Detection (DPD).
> Defined by RFC 3706, Dead Peer Detection (DPD) is used to simplify the messaging required to verify communication between peers and tunnel availability.
> DPD is configured at the context level and is used in support of the IPSec Tunnel Failover feature (refer to the Redundant IPSec Tunnel Fail-Over section) and/or to help prevent tunnel state mismatches between an FA and HA when IPSec is used for Mobile IP applications. When used with Mobile IP applications, DPD ensures the availability of tunnels between the FA and HA. (Note that the starIPSECDynTunUp and starIPSECDynTunDown SNMP traps are triggered to indicate tunnel state for the Mobile IP scenario.)
> Regardless of the application, DPD must be supported/configured on both security peers. If the system is configured with DPD but it is communicating with a peer that does not have DPD configured, IPSec tunnels still come up. However, the only indication that the remote peer does not support DPD exists in the output of the show crypto isakmp security-associations summary command.
> Important: If DPD is enabled while IPSec tunnels are up, it will not take affect until all of the tunnels are cleared.
> Important: DPD must be configured in the same context on the system as other IPSec Parameters.
> To configure the Crypto group to support IPSec:

> Step 1 | Enable dead peer detection on system in support of the IPSec Tunnel Failover feature by following the steps in the Configuring Crypto Group section

> Step 2 | Verify your Crypto Group configuration by following the steps in the Verifying the DPD Configuration section.

> Step 3 | Save your configuration as described in the Verifying and Saving Your Configuration chapter.

> Configuring Crypto Group
> Use the following example to configure a crypto group on your system for redundant IPSec tunnel fail-over support:
> configure
> context <ctxt_name>
> ikev1 keepalive dpd interval <dur> timeout <dur> num-retry <retries>
> end
> Notes:

> • | <ctxt_name> is the destination context where the Crypto Group is to be configured.

> Verifying the DPD Configuration
> These instructions are used to verify the dead peer detection configuration.

> Step 1 | Verify that your system is configured properly with crypto group with DPD by entering the following command in Exec Mode in specific context:

> sshow crypto group [ summary | name group_name ]
> The output of this command is a concise listing of crypto group parameter settings configured on the system.
> APN Template Configuration to Support L2TP
> This section provides instructions for adding L2TP support for APN templates configured on the system.
> These instructions assume that the APN template was previously configured on this system.
> Important: This section provides the minimum instruction set for configuring an APN template to support L2TP for APN. For more information on commands that configure additional parameters and options, refer to the Command Line Interface Reference. To configure the APN to support L2TP:

> Step 1 | Modify preconfigured APN template by following the steps in the Modifying APN Template to Support L2TP section

> Step 2 | Verify your APN configuration by following the steps in the Verifying the APN Configuration for L2TP section.

> Step 3 | Save your configuration as described in the Verifying and Saving Your Configuration chapter.

> Modifying APN Template to Support L2TP
> Use the following example to modify APN template to support L2TP:
> configure
> context <ctxt_name>
> apn <apn_name>
> tunnel l2tp [ peer-address <lns_address> [ [ encrypted ] secret <l2tp_secret> ] [ preference <num> ] [ tunnel-context <tunnel_ctxt_name> ] [ local-address <agw_ip_address> ] [ crypto-map <map_name> { [ encrypted ] isakmp-secret <crypto_secret> } ]
> end
> Notes:

> • | <ctxt_name> is the system context in which the APN template is configured.

> • | <apn_name> is name of the preconfigured APN template in which you want to configure L2TP support.

> • | <lns_address> is IP address of the LNS node to which this APN will communicate.

> • | <tunnel_ctxt_name> is the L2TP context in which the L2TP tunnel is configured.

> • | <agw_ip_address> is the local IP address of the GGSN in which this APN template is configured.

> • | <map_name> is the preconfigured crypto map (ISAKMP or manual) which is to use for L2TP.

> Verifying the APN Configuration for L2TP
> These instructions are used to verify the APN template configuration for L2TP.

> Step 1 | Verify that your APN is configured properly with L2TP by entering the following command in Exec Mode in specific context:

> show apn { all | name apn_name }
> The output of this command is a concise listing of FA service parameter settings configured on the system.
