Configuring the Access VPN to Work with Local AAA
Introduction
In this second task, the ISP and enterprise customer:
•Configure their network devices to work as an access VPN
•Use local AAA to authenticate the tunnel and the users
•Verify that the access VPN works properly
•Troubleshoot the access VPN if there are problems
The ISP configures the NAS, and the enterprise customer configures the home gateway.
After the ISP and enterprise customer verify that their access VPN works by using local AAA, they reconfigure their devices to use remote AAA servers. See "Configuring the Access VPN to Work with Remote AAA."
Figure 1 shows the access VPN network topology. The tunnel and user authentication occurs locally between the Cisco AS5300 NAS and the Cisco 7206 home gateway.
Figure 14 Access VPN Topology Using Local AAA
Once the ISP and enterprise customer have completed this task, the network will function as follows:
•When the user Jeremy wants to connect to the enterprise customer's network, he dials in to the NAS by using the username jeremy@hgw.com.
•The NAS and the client perform LCP negotiation.
•The NAS authenticates the domain name hgw.com and determines the tunnel endpoint information.
•The NAS negotiates an L2F tunnel with the home gateway. Once the tunnel is established, the NAS forwards the call to the home gateway.
•The home gateway authenticates the username, jeremy, and assigns the client an IP address. (It can optionally assign IP addresses for DNS and WINS servers.)
•The client and the home gateway can now exchange PPP packets. The NAS now acts as a transparent PPP frame forwarder.
Configuring the Access VPN
To configure the NAS and home gateway to work as an access VPN, follow these steps:
•Step 2—Configuring the Home Gateway
Step 1—Configuring the NAS
In this step, the ISP configures the NAS for VPN using local AAA. This step contains the following sections:
•Enabling VPN to Send L2F Tunnels
•Authenticating and Authorizing the Tunnel
•Removing Unnecessary Commands
Note This step assumes that you already configured the NAS for basic dial access as described in "." The access VPN described in this case study routes calls and builds tunnels based on domain name—not dialed number identification service (DNIS).
Enabling VPN to Send L2F Tunnels
In this section, the ISP:
•Turns on VPN
•Sends an L2F tunnel out to the home gateway
•Configures the NAS to first search for domain names before searching for DNIS
|
|
---|---|
|
Turn on VPN1 . |
|
Create a VPN group. VPN group statements are not needed for remote AAA scenarios. |
|
Request a tunnel to 172.22.66.25 by using L2F, IP, and the domain name hgw.com. To accept the tunnel, the home gateway is configured with the accept dialin l2f virtual-template 1 remote ISP_NAS command and local name ENT_HGW command. To create a DNIS based tunnel, replace the domain keyword with the dnis keyword and phone number. The domain name identifies which tunnel the user belongs to. |
|
Turn on authentication for L2F. This name does not have to be the same as the hostname of the access server. |
|
Configure the software to first search for the domain name before searching for DNIS. This command decreases connectivity time, which can reduce the number of system timeouts. By default, the Cisco IOS software first looks to see if it can build out a tunnel based on DNIS. If DNIS is not found, the software searches for a domain name. The vpdn search-order domain dnis command reverses the default. |
1 The Cisco IOS command syntax uses the more specific term virtual private dialup network (VPDN) instead of VPN. |
Authenticating and Authorizing the Tunnel
In this section, the ISP:
•Adds local usernames for bidirectional authentication between the NAS and home gateway
•Authenticates the tunnel between the remote peers and authorize the tunnel at the NAS
Removing Unnecessary Commands
In this section, the ISP:
•Removes the local IP address pool
•Deletes the client's username and password from the local database
Step 2—Configuring the Home Gateway
In this step, the enterprise customer configures the home gateway for VPN using local AAA. This step contains the following sections:
•Enabling VPN to Accept L2F Tunnels
•Creating the Virtual Template
•Specifying the IP Address Pool and BOOTP Servers
Configuring Basic Settings
In this section, the enterprise customer:
•Configures the basic global configuration settings
•Configures the Fast Ethernet interface
•Verifies connectivity with the NAS
We strongly recommend using the service password-encryption command so that your username passwords do not appear in the configuration output. The service timestamps debug datetime msec command includes millisecond dating on debug output. These time stamps help identify debug output when there is a lot of activity on the router.
Configuring Local AAA
In this section, the enterprise customer configures local AAA and the usernames needed to authenticate the user and the tunnel:
Enabling VPN to Accept L2F Tunnels
In this section, the enterprise customer enables and configure the home gateway for VPN using L2F tunnels:
|
|
ENT_HGW(config)# vpdn enable |
Enable VPN1 . |
ENT_HGW(config)# vpdn-group 1
|
Create VPN group 1. |
ENT_HGW(config-vpdn)# accept dialin l2f virtual-template
1 remote ISP_NAS
|
Specify that the home gateway will accept L2F tunnels from the client, ISP_NAS, and clone the new virtual-access interface from virtual template 1. To accept the tunnel, the home gateway is configured with the |
ENT_HGW(config-vpdn)# local name ENT_HGW
|
Specify that the L2F tunnel identifies itself with the local hostname, ENT_HGW. |
1 The Cisco IOS command syntax uses the more specific term virtual private dialup network (VPDN) instead of VPN. |
Creating the Virtual Template
In this section, the enterprise customer creates the virtual template that is used to clone virtual-access interfaces:
Specifying the IP Address Pool and BOOTP Servers
In this section, the enterprise customer specifies the IP address pool and the BOOTP servers.
The IP address pool is the addresses that the home gateway assigns to clients. You must configure an IP address pool. You can also provide BOOTP servers. DNS servers translate hostnames to IP addresses. WINS servers, which are specified using the async-bootp nbns-server command, provide dynamic NetBIOS names that Windows devices use to communicate without IP addresses.
Verifying the Access VPN
This section describes how to verify that the following end-to-end connections function as shown in :
•Step 1—Checking the NAS Running Configuration
•Step 2—Checking the Home Gateway Running Configuration
•Step 4—Pinging the Home Gateway
•Step 5—Displaying Active Call Statistics on the Home Gateway
•Step 7—Verifying That the Virtual-Access Interface Is Up and That LCP Is Open
•Step 8—Viewing Active L2F Tunnel Statistics
Figure 15 Access VPN Topology Using Local AAA
After you successfully test these connections, go to "Configuring the Access VPN to Work with Remote AAA." If you experience problems, see "Troubleshooting the Access VPN."

end
Step 3—Dialing in to the NAS
From the client, dial in to the NAS by using the PRI telephone number assigned to the NAS' T1 trunks. Sometimes the PRI telephone number is called the hunt group number.
As the call comes into the NAS, a LINK-3-UPDOWN message automatically appears on the NAS' terminal screen. In this example, the call comes in to the NAS on asynchronous interface 14. The asynchronous interface is up.
*Jan 1 21:22:18.410: %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface Async14, changed state to up
Note No debug commands are turned on to display this log message. Start troubleshooting the NAS if you do not see the above message after 30 seconds of when the client first transmits the call.
Step 4—Pinging the Home Gateway
From the client, ping the home gateway. From the client's Windows 95 desktop:
(a) Click Start.
(b) Select Run.
(c) Enter ping 172.22.66.25.
(d) Click OK.
(e) Look at the terminal screen and verify that the home gateway is sending ping reply packets to the client.
Step 5—Displaying Active Call Statistics on the Home Gateway
From the home gateway, enter the show caller command and show caller user name command to verify that the client received an IP address. This example shows that Jeremy is using interface virtual-access 1 and is assigned IP address 172.30.2.1. The network administrator jane-admin is using console 0.
ENT_HGW# show caller
Line User Service Active
con 0 jane-admin TTY 00:00:25
Vi1 jeremy@hgw.com PPP L2F 00:01:28

0 input errors, 0 CRC, 0 frame, 0 overrun
18 packets output, 295 bytes, 0 underruns
0 output errors, 0 collisions, 0 interface resets
Note The show caller command was introduced in Cisco IOS Release 11.3(5)AA. If your Cisco IOS software does not include the show caller command, use the show user command instead.
Step 6—Pinging the Client
From the home gateway, ping Jeremy's PC at IP address 172.30.2.1:
ENT_HGW# ping 172.30.2.1
Type escape sequence to abort.
Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 172.30.2.1, timeout is 2 seconds:
!!!!!
Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 128/132/152 ms
Step 7—Verifying That the Virtual-Access Interface Is Up and That LCP Is Open
From the home gateway, enter the show interface virtual-access 1 command to verify that the interface is up, LCP is open, and no errors are reported:
ENT_HGW# show interface virtual-access 1
Virtual-Access1 is up, line protocol is up
Hardware is Virtual Access interface
Interface is unnumbered. Using address of FastEthernet0/0 (172.22.66.25)

0 carrier transitions
Step 8—Viewing Active L2F Tunnel Statistics
From the home gateway, display active tunnel statistics by entering the show vpdn command and show vpdn tunnel all command:
ENT_HGW# show vpdn
% No active L2TP tunnels
L2F Tunnel and Session

Troubleshooting the Access VPN
This section provides the ISP and enterprise customer with a methodology for troubleshooting the access VPN as described in . Step 1 shows debug output from a successful call. If your debug output does not match the successful output, follow the remaining steps to begin troubleshooting the network. The bolded lines of debug output indicate important information.
•Step 1—Comparing Your Debug Output to the Successful Debug Output
•Step 2—Troubleshooting L2F Negotiation
•Step 3—Troubleshooting PPP Negotiation
•Step 4—Troubleshooting AAA Negotiation
describes the methodology used to troubleshoot the Access VPN.
Figure 16 Troubleshooting Flow Diagram for Access VPN with Local AAA
If you are accessing the NAS and home gateway through a Telnet connection, enable the terminal monitor command, which ensures that your EXEC session is receiving the logging and debug output from the devices.
When you finish troubleshooting, use the undebug all command to turn off all debug commands. Isolating debug output helps you efficiently build a network.
Step 1—Comparing Your Debug Output to the Successful Debug Output
Enable the debug vpdn-event command on both the NAS and the home gateway. The following debug output shows successful VPN negotiation on the NAS and home gateway:

6w5d: %LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface Virtual-Access1, changed state to up
If you see the above debug output but cannot ping the home gateway, go on to "Step 3—Troubleshooting PPP Negotiation."
If you do not see the above debug output, go on to "Step 2—Troubleshooting L2F Negotiation."
Step 2—Troubleshooting L2F Negotiation
This step describes several common misconfigurations that prevent successful L2F negotiation.
•Misconfigured NAS Tunnel Secret
•Misconfigured Home Gateway Tunnel Secret
Misconfigured NAS Tunnel Secret
The NAS and the home gateway must both have the same usernames with the same password to authenticate the L2F tunnel. These usernames are called the tunnel secret. In this case study, these usernames are ISP_NAS and ENT_HGW. The password is "cisco" for both usernames on both systems.
If one of the tunnel secrets on the NAS is incorrect, you will see the following debug output when you dial in to the NAS and the debug vpdn l2x-errors command is enabled on the NAS and home gateway:
ISP_NAS#
Jan 1 00:26:49.899: %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface Async3, changed state to up

Jan 1 00:27:25.559: L2F: Resending L2F_ECHO, time #5
Jan 1 00:27:25.559: L2F: Resend packet (type 2) around too long, time to kill off the tunnel
ISP_NAS#
ENT_HGW#
Jan 1 00:26:53.645: L2F: Packet has bogus2 key C8353FAB B6369121
5w6d: %VPDN-6-AUTHENFAIL: L2F HGW , authentication failure for tunnel ISP_NAS; Invalid key

Jan 1 00:27:00.557: L2F: Gateway received tunnel OPEN while in state closed
ENT_HGW#
The phrase "time to kill off the tunnel" in the NAS debug output indicates that the tunnel was not opened. The phrase "Packet has bogus2 key" in the home gateway debug output indicates that the NAS has an incorrect tunnel secret.
To avoid this problem, make sure that you configure both the NAS and home gateway for the same two usernames with the same password.
Misconfigured Home Gateway Tunnel Secret
If one of the tunnel secrets on the home gateway is incorrect, you will see the following debug output when you dial in to the NAS and the debug vpdn l2x-errors command is enabled on the NAS and home gateway:
ISP_NAS#
Jan 1 00:45:27.123: %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface Async7, changed state to up
Jan 1 00:45:30.939: L2F: Packet has bogus1 key B6C656EE 5FAC6B3
Jan 1 00:45:30.939: %VPDN-6-AUTHENFAIL: L2F NAS ISP_NAS, authentication failure

Jan 1 00:45:31.935: %LINEPROTO-5-UPDOWN: Line protocol on Interface Async7, cha
nged state to up
Jan 1 00:45:35.559: L2F: Resending L2F_OPEN, time #1
Jan 1 00:45:35.559: L2F: Packet has bogus1 key B6C656EE 5FAC6B3
ISP_NAS#
ENT_HGW#
Jan 1 00:45:30.939: L2F: Tunnel authentication succeeded for ISP_NAS
Jan 1 00:45:35.559: L2F: Gateway received tunnel OPEN while in state open
Jan 1 00:45:40.559: L2F: Gateway received tunnel OPEN while in state open
Jan 1 00:45:45.559: L2F: Gateway received tunnel OPEN while in state open
Jan 1 00:45:50.559: L2F: Gateway received tunnel OPEN while in state open
Notice how this output is similar to the debug output you see when the NAS has a misconfigured tunnel secret. This time you see the phrase "Packet has bogus1 key" on the NAS instead of on the home gateway. This tells you that the home gateway has an incorrect tunnel secret.
To avoid this problem, make sure that you configure both the NAS and home gateway for the same two usernames with the same password.
Misconfigured Tunnel Name
If the NAS and home gateway do not have matching tunnel names, they cannot establish an L2F tunnel. These tunnel names are configured under the vpdn-group 1 command on both the NAS and the home gateway by using the local name command.
The home gateway must be configured to accept tunnels from the name the NAS sends it. This is done by using the accept dialin l2f virtual-template 1 remote ISP_NAS command, where ISP_NAS is the name. The name the home gateway returns to the NAS is configured by using the local name ENT_HGW command where ENT_HGW is the name. These commands appear in the running configuration as follows:
vpdn-group 1
accept dialin l2f virtual-template 1 remote ISP_NAS
local name ENT_HGW
In the following debug output, the NAS attempted to open a tunnel by using the name isp. Because the home gateway did not know this name, it did not open the tunnel. To see the following debug output, enable the debug vpdn l2x-events and debug vpdn l2x-errors commands on the home gateway:
ENT_HGW#
Jan 1 01:28:54.207: L2F: L2F_CONF received
Jan 1 01:28:54.207: L2X: Never heard of isp
Jan 1 01:28:54.207: L2F: Couldn't find tunnel named isp
To avoid the above problem, make sure that the tunnel names match on the home gateway and on the NAS.
If you fixed the problem in your configuration, go back to "Verifying the Access VPN."
If your call still cannot successfully complete L2F negotiation, contact your support personnel.
Step 3—Troubleshooting PPP Negotiation
Enable the debug ppp negotiation command on the home gateway and dial in to the NAS. You should not need to enable this command on the NAS, because you already verified dial up connectivity to the NAS in "Configuring the NAS for Basic Dial Access."
The following debug output shows successful PPP negotiation on the home gateway:
1d02h: %LINK-3-UPDOWN: Interface Virtual-Access1, changed state to up
*Feb 4 14:14:40.505: Vi1 PPP: Treating connection as a dedicated line
*Feb 4 14:14:40.505: Vi1 PPP: Phase is ESTABLISHING, Active Open
*Feb 4 14:14:40.505: Vi1 PPP: Treating connection as a dedicated line
*Feb 4 14:14:40.505: Vi1 PPP: Phase is AUTHENTICATING, by this end
*Feb 4 14:14:40.509: Vi1 PPP: Phase is UP
If your call successfully completed PPP negotiation, but you still cannot ping the home gateway, go on to "Step 4—Troubleshooting AAA Negotiation."
If your call cannot successfully complete PPP negotiation, contact your support personnel.
Step 4—Troubleshooting AAA Negotiation
This section first shows debug output of successful AAA negotiation. It then explains a common misconfiguration that prevents successful AAA negotiation.
Successful AAA Negotiation
Enable the debug aaa authentication and debug aaa authorization commands on the home gateway.
The following debug output shows successful AAA negotiation on the home gateway. This output has been edited to exclude repetitive lines.

If this debug output appears, but you still cannot ping the home gateway, contact your support personnel and troubleshoot your network's backbone.
If you do not see this debug output, troubleshoot AAA negotiation.
Incorrect User Password
If the user password is incorrect (or it is incorrectly configured), the tunnel will be established, but the home gateway will not authenticate the user. If the user password is incorrect, the following debug output appears on the NAS and home gateway when you dial in to the NAS and the debug vpdn l2x-errors and debug vpdn l2x-events commands are enabled:
