Information About IPsec Usability Enhancements
IPsec Overview
IPsec is a framework of open standards developed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), which provides security for transmission of sensitive information over public networks. IPsec acts at the network layer, protecting and authenticating IP packets between participating IPsec devices (peers), such as Cisco routers.
IPsec provides secure tunnels between two peers. You may define which packets are considered sensitive and should be sent through these secure tunnels. You may also define the parameters that should be used to protect these sensitive packets by specifying characteristics of the tunnels. When an IPsec peer detects a sensitive packet, it sets up the appropriate secure tunnel and sends the packet through the tunnel to the remote peer.
IPsecOperation
An IPsec operation involves five basic steps: identifying interesting traffic, IKE phase-1, IKE phase-2, establishing the tunnel or IPsec session, and finally tearing down the tunnel.
Step 1: Identifying Interesting Traffic
The VPN devices recognize the traffic, or sensitive packets, to detect. IPsec is either applied to the sensitive packet, the packet is bypassed, or the packet is dropped. Based on the traffic type, if IPsec is applied then IKE phase-1 is initiated.
Step 2: IKE Phase-1
There are three exchanges between the VPN devices to negotiate an IKE security policy and establish a secure channel.
During the first exchange, the VPN devices negotiate matching IKE transform sets to protect the IKE exchange resulting in establishing an Internet Security Association and Key Management Protocol (ISAKMP) policy to utilize. The ISAKMP policy consists of an encryption algorithm, a hash algorithm, an authentication algorithm, a Diffie-Hellman (DH) group, and a lifetime parameter.
There are eight default ISAKMP policies supported. For more information on default ISAKMP policies, see the section "Verifying IKE Phase-1 ISAKMP Default Policies."
The second exchange consists of a Diffie-Hellman exchange, which establishes a shared secret.
The third exchange authenticates peer identity. After the peers are authenticated, IKE phase-2 begins.
Step 3: IKE Phase-2
The VPN devices negotiate the IPsec security policy used to protect the IPsec data. IPsec transform sets are negotiated.
A transform set is a combination of algorithms and protocols that enact a security policy for network traffic. For more information on default transform sets, see the section "Verifying Default IPsec Transform-Sets." A VPN tunnel is ready to be established.
How to Utilize IPsec Usability Enhancements
- Verifying IKE Phase-1 ISAKMP Default Policies
- Verifying Default IPsec Transform-Sets
- Verifying and Troubleshooting IPsec VPNs
Verifying IKE Phase-1 ISAKMP Default Policies
When IKE negotiation begins, the peers try to find a common policy, starting with the highest priority policy as specified on the remote peer. The peers negotiate the policy sets until there is a match. If peers have more than one policy set in common, the lowest priority number is used.
There are three groups of IKE phase-1, ISAKMP, policies as defined by policy priority ranges and behavior:
- Default ISAKMP policies, which are automatically enabled.
- User configured ISAKMP policies, which you may configure with the crypto isakmp policy command.
- Easy VPN (EzVPN) ISAKMP policies, which are made available during EzVPN configuration.
This section describes the three groups of ISAKMP policies, how they behave in relationship to one another, how to determine which policies are in use with the appropriate show command, and how to disable the default ISAKMP policies.
Default IKE Phase-1 Policies
There are eight default IKE phase-1, ISAKMP, policies supported (see the table below) that are enabled automatically. If you have neither manually configured IKE policies with the crypto isakmp policy command nor disabled the default IKE policies with the no crypto isakmp default policy command, the default IKE policies will be used during peer IKE negotiations. You can verify that the default IKE policies are in use by issuing either the show crypto isakmp policy command or the show crypto isakmp default policy command.
The default IKE policies define the following policy set parameters:
- The priority, 65507-65514, where 65507 is the highest priority and 65514 is the lowest priority.
- The authentication method, Rivest, Shamir, and Adelman (RSA) or preshared keys (PSK).
- The encryption method, Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) or Triple Data Encryption Standard (3DES).
- The hash function, Secure Hash Algorithm (SHA-1) or Message-Digest algorithm 5 (MD5).
- The DH group specification DH2 or DH5
User Configured IKE Policies
You may configure IKE policies with the crypto isakmp policy command. User configured IKE policies are uniquely identified and configured with a priority number ranging from 1-10000, where 1 is the highest priority and 10000 the lowest priority.
Once you have configured one or more IKE policies with a priority of 1-10000:
- The user configured policies will be used during peer IKE negotiations.
- The default IKE policies will no longer used during peer IKE negotiations.
- The user configured policies may be displayed by issuing the show crypto isakmp policy command.
EzVPN ISAKMP Policies
If you have configured EzVPN (see EzVPN ISAKMP Policies), the default EzVPN ISAKMP policies in use are uniquely identified with a priority number ranging from 65515-65535, where 65515 is the highest priority and 65535 is the lowest priority.
Once a user has configured EzVPN:
- The default EzVPN ISAKMP policies and the default IKE policies will be used during peer IKE negotiations.
- The EzVPN IKAKMP policies and the default IKE policies will be displayed by issuing the show crypto isakmp policy command.
- Default ISAKMP policies will be displayed by issuing the show crypto isakmp default policy command unless they have been disabled by issuing the no crypto isakmp default policy command.

The following example disables the default IKE policies then shows the resulting output of the show crypto isakmp default policy command, which is blank:
Router# configure terminal Router(config)# no crypto isakmp default policy Router(config)# exit Router# show crypto isakmp default policy Router# !There is no output since the default IKE policies have been disabled.
The following is an example system log message that is generated whenever the default ISAKMP policies are in use:
%CRYPTO-6-IKMP_POLICY_DEFAULT: Using ISAKMP Default policies
Verifying Default IPsec Transform-Sets
A transform set represents a certain combination of security protocols and algorithms. During the IPsec SA negotiation, the peers agree to use a particular transform set for protecting a particular data flow.
During IPsec SA negotiations with IKE, the peers search for a transform set that is the same at both peers. When such a transform set is found, it is selected and is applied to the protected traffic as part of the IPsec SAs of both peers.
Default Transform Sets
A default transform set will be used by any crypto map or IPsec profile where no other transform set has been configured and if the following is true:
- The default transform sets have not been disabled with the no crypto ipsec default transform-set command.
- The crypto engine in use supports the encryption algorithm.
The two default transform sets each define an Encapsulation Security Protocol (ESP) encryption transform type and an ESP authentication transform type as shown in the table below.
| Table 2 | Default Transform Sets and Parameters |
|
Default Transform Name |
ESP Encryption Transform and Description |
ESP Authentication Transform and Description |
|---|---|---|
|
#$!default_transform_set_0 |
esp-3des (ESP with the 168-bit 3DES or Triple DES encryption algorithm) |
esp-sha-hmac |
|
#$!default_transform_set_1 |
esp-aes (ESP with the 128-bit AES encryption algorithm) |
esp-sha-hmac (ESP with the SHA-1, hash message authentication code [HMAC] variant authentication algorithm) |
DETAILED STEPS
Examples
The following example displays output from the show crypto ipsec default transform-set command when the default transform sets are enabled, the default setting: Router# show crypto ipsec default transform-set Transform set #$!default_transform_set_1: { esp-aes esp-sha-hmac } will negotiate = { Transport, }, Transform set #$!default_transform_set_0: { esp-3des esp-sha-hmac } will negotiate = { Transport, },
The following example displays output from the show crypto ipsec default transform-set command when the default transform sets have been disabled with the no crypto ipsec default transform-setcommand.
Router(config)# no crypto ipsec default transform-set Router(config)# exit Router# Router# show crypto ipsec default transform-set ! There is no output. Router#
The following is an example system log message that is generated whenever IPsec SAs have negotiated with a default transform set:

Configuration Examples for IPsec Usability Enhancements
IKE Default Policies Example
In the following example, crypto maps are configured on RouterA and RouterB and default IKE policies are in use. Traffic is routed from Pagent A to Pagent B. Checking the system log on Peer A and Peer B confirms that the default IKE policies are in use on both peers (see the figure below).

Default Transform Sets Example
In the following example, static crypto maps are configured on RouterA and dynamic crypto maps are configured on RouterB. Traffic is routed from Pagent A to Pagent B. The IPsec SAs negotiate with default transform sets and the traffic is encrypted. Executing the show crypto map command on both peers verifies that the default transform sets are in use (see Default Transform Sets Example).

The following commands were introduced or modified: crypto ipsec default transform-set, crypto isakmp default policy, crypto isakmp policy, show crypto ipsec default transform-set, show crypto ipsec transform-set, show crypto isakmp default policy, show crypto isakmp policy, show crypto map (IPsec), show crypto mib ipsec flowmib endpoint, show crypto mib ipsec flowmib failure, show crypto mib ipsec flowmib global, show crypto mib ipsec flowmib history, show crypto mib ipsec flowmib spi, show crypto mib ipsec flowmib tunnel, show crypto mib isakmp flowmib failure, show crypto mib isakmp flowmib global, show crypto mib isakmp flowmib history, show crypto mib isakmp flowmib peer, show crypto mib isakmp flowmib tunnel, show tech-support ipsec. |
Glossary
peer--In the context of this module, a router or other device that participates in IPsec.
SA --security association. Description of how two or more entities use security services in the context of a particular security protocol (AH or ESP) to communicate securely on behalf of a particular data flow. The transform and the shared secret keys are used for protecting the traffic.
transform --List of operations performed on a dataflow to provide data authentication, data confidentiality, and data compression. For example, one transform is the ESP protocol with the HMAC-MD5 authentication algorithm; another transform is the AH protocol with the 56-bit DES encryption algorithm and the ESP protocol with the HMAC-SHA authentication algorithm.
tunnel --In the context of this module, a secure communication path between two peers, such as two routers. It does not refer to using IPsec in tunnel mode.
