Introduction

This document explains the procedure you use in order to configure a Cisco IOS® router as an EzVPN in Network Extension Mode (NEM) to connect to a Cisco VPN 3000 Concentrator. A new EzVPN Phase II feature is the support of a basic Network Address Translation (NAT) configuration. The EzVPN Phase II is derived from the Unity Protocol (VPN Client software). The remote device is always the initiator of the IPsec tunnel. However, Internet Key Exchange (IKE) and IPsec proposals are not configurable on the EzVPN Client. The VPN Client negotiates proposals with the server.

In order to configure IPsec between a PIX/ASA 7.x and a Cisco 871 router using Easy VPN, refer to PIX/ASA 7.x Easy VPN with an ASA 5500 as the Server and Cisco 871 as the Easy VPN Remote Configuration Example.

In order to configure IPsec between the Cisco IOS® Easy VPN Remote Hardware Client and the PIX Easy VPN Server, refer to IOS Easy VPN Remote Hardware Client to a PIX Easy VPN Server Configuration Example.

In order to configure a Cisco 7200 Router as an EzVPN and the Cisco 871 Router as the Easy VPN Remote, refer to 7200 Easy VPN Server to 871 Easy VPN Remote Configuration Example.

Prerequisites

Requirements

Before you attempt this configuration check that the Cisco IOS router supports the EzVPN Phase II feature and has the IP connectivity with end-to-end connections to establish the IPsec tunnel.

Components Used

The information in this document is based on these software and hardware versions:

  • Cisco IOS Software Release 12.2(8)YJ (EzVPN Phase II)

  • VPN 3000 Concentrator 3.6.x

  • Cisco 1700 Router

The information in this document was created from the devices in a specific lab environment. All of the devices used in this document started with a cleared (default) configuration. If your network is live, make sure that you understand the potential impact of any command.

Note: This configuration was recently tested with a Cisco 3640 Router with Cisco IOS Software Release 12.4(8) and the VPN 3000 Concentrator 4.7.x version.

Step by Step Instructions

Complete these steps:

  1. Choose Configuration > User Management > Groups > Add and define a group name and password in order to configure an IPsec group for the users.

    This example uses the group name turaro with password/verify tululo.

    vpn_ios_ezvpn-a.gif

  2. Choose Configuration > User Management > Groups > turaro > General to enable IPSec and disable Point-to-Point Tunneling Protocol (PPTP) and Layer 2 Tunnel Protocol (L2TP).

    Make your selections and click Apply.

    vpn_ios_ezvpn-b.gif

  3. Set Authentication to Internal for Extended Authentication (Xauth) and ensure that the Tunnel Type is Remote Access and the IPSec SA is ESP-3DES-MD5.

    vpn_ios_ezvpn-c.gif

  4. Choose Configuration > System > Tunneling Protocols > IPSec > IKE Proposals in order to make sure that the Cisco VPN Client (CiscoVPNClient-3DES-MD5) is in Active Proposals for IKE (Phase 1).

    Note: From VPN Concentrator 4.1.x, the procedure is different for ensuring that the Cisco VPN Client is in the list of Active Proposals for IKE (phase 1). Choose Configuration > Tunneling and Security > IPSec > IKE Proposals.

    vpn_ios_ezvpn-d.gif

  5. Verify your IPsec Security Association (SA).

    On step 3 your IPsec SA is ESP-3DES-MD5. You can create a new one if you wish but make sure you use the correct IPsec SA on your group. You should disable Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS) for the IPsec SA that you use. Select the Cisco VPN Client as the IKE proposal by choosing Configuration > Policy Management > Traffic Management > SAs. Type the SA name in the text box and make the appropriate selections as shown here:

    easyvpn-nem-06.gif

    Note: This step and the next step are optional if you prefer to choose a pre-defined SA. If your client has a dynamically assigned IP address, use 0.0.0.0 in the IKE peer text box. Make ensure that IKE Proposal is set to CiscoVPNClient-3DES-MD5 as this example shows.

  6. You must not click Allow the networks in the list to bypass the tunnel. The reason is that split tunneling is supported, but the bypass feature is not supported with the EzVPN Client feature.

    vpn_ios_ezvpn-g.gif

  7. Choose Configuration > User Management > Users in order to add a user. Define a user name and password, assign it to a group, and click Add.

    vpn_ios_ezvpn-h.gif

  8. Choose Administration > Admin Sessions and check that the user is connected. In NEM, the VPN Concentrator does not assign an IP address from the pool.

    Note: This step is optional if you prefer to choose a predefined SA.

  9. Click either the Save Needed or Save icon in order to save the configuration.

Verify

Use this section to confirm that your configuration works properly.

The Output Interpreter Tool (registered customers only) (OIT) supports certain show commands. Use the OIT to view an analysis of show command output.

Once you configure both devices, the Cisco 3640 router attempts to set up the VPN tunnel by contacting the VPN Concentrator automatically using the peer IP address. After the initial ISAKMP parameters are exchanged, the router displays this message: 

Pending XAuth Request, Please enter the 
	 following command: crypto ipsec client ezvpn xauth

You have to enter the crypto ipsec client ezvpn xauth command which prompts you for a username and password. This should match the username and password configured on the VPN Concentrator (step 7). Once the username and password are agreed by both peers, the rest of the parameters are agreed and the IPsec VPN tunnel comes up.

EZVPN(SJVPN): Pending XAuth Request, Please enter the following command: 

EZVPN: crypto ipsec client ezvpn xauth    


!--- Enter the crypto ipsec client ezvpn xauth command.


crypto ipsec client ezvpn xauth

Enter Username and Password.: padma

Clear an Active Tunnel

You can clear the tunnels with these commands:

  • clear crypto isakmp

  • clear crypto sa

  • clear crypto ipsec client ezvpn

Note: You can use the VPN Concentrator in order to logout of the session when you choose Administration > Admin Sessions, select the user in Remote Access Session and click logout.

VPN 3000 Concentrator Debug

Choose Configuration > System > Events > Classes in order to enable this debug if there are event connection failures. You can always add more classes if the ones shown do not help you identify the problem.

In order to view the current event log in memory, filterable by event class, severity, IP address, and so forth, choose Monitoring > Filterable Event log.

In order to view the statistics of the IPsec protocol, choose Monitoring > Statistics > IPSec. This window shows statistics for IPsec activity, including current IPsec tunnels, on the VPN Concentrator since it was last booted or reset. These statistics conform to the IETF draft for the IPsec Flow Monitoring MIB. The Monitoring > Sessions > Detail window also shows IPsec data.

What Can Go Wrong

  • The Cisco IOS router gets stuck in the AG_INIT_EXCH state. While you troubleshoot, turn on IPsec and ISAKMP debugs with these commands:

    • debug crypto ipsec

    • debug crypto isakmp

    • debug crypto ezvpn

    On the Cisco IOS router, you see this: 

    5d16h: ISAKMP (0:9): beginning Aggressive Mode exchange 
5d16h: ISAKMP (0:9): sending packet to 10.48.66.115 (I) AG_INIT_EXCH 
5d16h: ISAKMP (0:9): retransmitting phase 1 AG_INIT_EXCH... 
5d16h: ISAKMP (0:9): incrementing error counter on sa: retransmit phase 1 
5d16h: ISAKMP (0:9): retransmitting phase 1 AG_INIT_EXCH 
5d16h: ISAKMP (0:9): sending packet to 10.48.66.115 (I) AG_INIT_EXCH 
5d16h: ISAKMP (0:9): retransmitting phase 1 AG_INIT_EXCH... 
5d16h: ISAKMP (0:9): incrementing error counter on sa: retransmit phase 1 
5d16h: ISAKMP (0:9): retransmitting phase 1 AG_INIT_EXCH 
5d16h: ISAKMP (0:9): sending packet to 10.48.66.115 (I) AG_INIT_EXCH 
5d16h: ISAKMP (0:9): retransmitting phase 1 AG_INIT_EXCH... 
5d16h: ISAKMP (0:9): incrementing error counter on sa: retransmit phase 1 
5d16h: ISAKMP (0:9): retransmitting phase 1 AG_INIT_EXCH 
5d16h: ISAKMP (0:9): sending packet to 10.48.66.115 (I) AG_INIT_EXCH

    On the VPN 3000 Concentrator, Xauth is required. However, the selected proposal does not support Xauth. Verify that the internal authentication for Xauth is specified. Enable internal authentication and ensure that the IKE proposals have the authentication mode set to Preshared Keys (Xauth), as in the previous screenshot. Click Modify in order to edit the proposal.

  • The password is incorrect.

    You do not see the Invalid Password message on the Cisco IOS router. On the VPN Concentrator, you might see Received unexpected event EV_ACTIVATE_NEW_SA in state AM_TM_INIT_XAUTH.

    Ensure your password is correct.

  • The username is incorrect.

    On the Cisco IOS router you see a debug similar to this if you have the wrong password. On the VPN Concentrator you see Authentication rejected: Reason = User was not found.
