Virtual Private Network
• VPN（Virtual Private Network）
– Virtual Private Network across public wide area
network (WAN)
– Provides a significant cost advantage
– Simplifies LAN and WAN operations
– Provides good compatibility and expansibility
– Helps an enterprise quickly start new services and
connect its branches around the world
– Needs security measures such as encryption,
integrity verification and user authentication

From A to B From X to Y From A to B From A to B
• Provides a secure communication tunnel between remote computers
across a public wide area network (WAN)
• Guarantees connection security by encrypted tunnel
– Provides encapsulation service for private data between two public
gateways

Three Elements of IPSec VPN
IPSec VPN guarantees secure data transmission
over Internet by the following three elements:
Confidentiality
• Hides and secures data in WAN
Integrity
• Ensures the data is not tampered
Authentication
• Verifies whether the data source is trusted
www.hillstonenet.com | Hillstone Confidential
Confidentiality
• Ensures data confidentiality by encryption
• Data encryption is reversible
• Data encryption and decryption by secret keys
– Symmetric (secret) key
– Asymmetric (public) key
www.hillstonenet.com | Hillstone Confidential
Symmetric Key
• Operates fast, suitable for encryption of large amount of data
• Typical key length: 40 bits to 448 bits
• Example: DES, 3DES, AES
Sender Receiver
1 Original data
+ Encrypted data +
Encrypted data 3 Original data

Asymmetric Key (Public Key)
Sender Receiver

Original data + Pub Encrypted data + Priv
2 4
3 Original data
Encrypted data
• Slower than encryption with symmetric keys
• Typical key length: 512 bits to 2048 bits
www.hillstonenet.com | Hillstone Confidential
Integrity
• Hash algorithm is widely used to provide data
integrity service
• One-way hashing algorithm
– Cannot calculate the original data by reverse engineering
• Output of fixed length (specially depending on
the algorithm)
• Example
– MD5, SHA
• MD5 provides 128-bit output
• SHA provides 160-bit output

Authentication
• Verifies data by authenticating the data source
• Uses HMAC (Hash message authentication code)
– PSK (pre-shared key)
– RSA-sig
– DSA-sig

SA (Security Association )
• Two types of SAs are used in IP security:
– ISAKMP SA - Protects secret key negotiation
– IPSec SA - Protects IP data
• When two IP entities communicates over IPSec VPN:
– First negotiates ISAKMP SA - Phase 1
• Two negotiation modes: Main mode and
aggressive mode
– Uses ISAKMP SA to negotiate IPSec SA - Phase 2
• One negotiation mode: Quick mode
– Uses IPSec SA to encrypt data

IPSec VPN Configuration Steps
• IKE VPN adopts the auto negotiation method. The
configurations of IKE VPN include:
– Step 1: Configure IKE VPN
• Configure Phase 1 proposal (optional)
• Configure ISAKMP gateway
• Configure Phase 2 proposal (optional)
• Configure IPSec Tunnel
– Step 2 A (policy-based): Configure a VPN policy rule.
The action of the policy rule must be Tunnel or From
tunnel
– Step 2 B (route-based): Bind the configured VPN
instance to a tunnel interface, create a VPN tunnel
route, and configure a permit policy rule based on the
zone the tunnel interface is bound to.

Network > VPN > IPSec VPN. In the IKE VPN list tab, click New.
www.hillstonenet.com | Hillstone Confidential
Configuring an IPSec VPN Tunnel (CLI)
tunnel ipsec tunnel-name auto
• mode tunnel

• id {auto | local ip-address/mask remote ip-
address/mask service service-name}

A. Policy-based VPN
Configure a policy (WebUI):
www.hillstonenet.com | Hillstone Confidential
A. Policy-based VPN
Configure a policy (CLI):
– create outbound policy
• policy-global
– rule top from local to remote service any
tunnel tunnel-name
– create inbound policy
• policy-global
– rule top from remote to local service any
fromtunnel tunnel-name
www.hillstonenet.com | Hillstone Confidential
A. Adding a No SNAT Rule
Policy > NAT > SNAT, click New.
www.hillstonenet.com | Hillstone Confidential
B. Route-based VPN (WebUI)
Configure a tunnel interface
Network > Interface, click New to create a tunnel interface.
www.hillstonenet.com | Hillstone Confidential
B. Route-based VPN (WebUI)
Configure a route to tunnel interface:
Network > Routing > Destination Route, Click New.
www.hillstonenet.com | Hillstone Confidential
B. Route-based VPN (WebUI)
Creating a policy with the action of permit
Create a policy with the action of permit based on the zone that the tunnel interface is
bound to.
If the access is bidirectional, you should add an inbound policy. The inbound policy can
be configured by exchanging the source and destination zones
www.hillstonenet.com | Hillstone Confidential
B. Route-based VPN (CLI)
– To create a tunnel interface
• interface tunnelNumber
– zone VPNHub
– tunnel IPSec tunnel-name
– To create a routing entry
• ip vrouter trust-vr
– ip route A.B.C.D/M tunnelNumber
– To create inbound and outbound policies
• policy-global
– rule from local to remote service any permit
– rule from remote to local service any permit
www.hillstonenet.com | Hillstone Confidential
Troubleshooting
• Steps
– Step 1 Use the command show ipsec sa to verify whether
phase2 SA has been established; if so, the VPN negotiation has
been completed successfully.
– Step 2 If phase2 SA has not been established, use the
command show isakmp sa to verify whether phase1 SA has
been established. If so, typically the problem occurred in
phase2 configuration, for example, inconsistent phase2
proposals or proxy ID; if not, you need to review the
configuration of phase1 peer or network, for example,
inconsistent phase1 proposals, pre-shared key, or no available
route to the peer.
– By default the VPN negotiation is triggered by traffic. To
enable auto connection, select Enable for Auto connect under
the Advance tab of phase2 tunnel configuration dialog.

Configuring SSL VPN
Hillstone device provides wizard-based SSL VPN configurations. The
configuration steps are shown as follows:
Network > VPN > SSL VPN. In the SSL VPN page, click New.
www.hillstonenet.com | Hillstone Confidential
Configuring SSL VPN
Specify an SSL VPN service interface and a service port , configure a
tunnel interface and an address pool, and then click Next.
To configure a tunnel interface and an SSL VPN address pool, see the next slide.
www.hillstonenet.com | Hillstone Confidential
Configuring SSL VPN
Configure a tunnel interface and an SSL VPN address pool. The tunnel
interface and address pool should be in the same IP address segment
without overlap. (must set ip for SSLVPN tunnel interface because this ip
is the gateway ip for client)
