Policy-based IPsec tunnel

This recipe provides an example configuration of policy-based IPsec tunnel. Site-to-site VPN between branch and HQ is used and HQ is the IPsec concentrator.

The following shows the network topology for this example:

To configure a policy-based IPsec tunnel using the GUI:

1. Configure the IPsec VPN at HQ:
   1. Go to VPN > IPsec Wizard, enter a VPN name (to_branch1 in this example), choose Custom, and then click Next:
      • Uncheck Enable IPsec Interface Mode.
      • Choose Static IP Address as Remote Gateway. l Enter IP address, in this example, 1.1.2. l Choose port9 as interface. l In this example, set Authentication Method to Pre-shared Key. In other cases, use the default.
      • Click OK.
   2. Go to VPN > IPsec Wizard, enter a VPN name (to_branch2 in this example), choose Custom, and then click Next:
      • Uncheck Enable IPsec Interface Mode.
      • Choose Static IP Address as Remote Gateway. l Enter IP address, in this example, 1.1.2. l Choose port9 as interface. l In this example, set Authentication Method to Pre-shared Key. In other cases, use the default.
      • Click OK.
   3. Configure the IPsec concentrator at HQ:
      1. Go to VPN > IPsec Concentrator, enter a name, in this example, branch.
      2. Add to_branch1 and to_branch2 as Members.
      3. Click OK.
   4. Configure the firewall policy:
      10. Choose the Incoming Interface, in this example, port10.
      11. Choose the Outgoing Interface, in this example, port9.
      12. Select the Source, Destination, Schedule, Service, and set Action to IPsec.
      13. Select the VPN Tunnel, in this example, Branch1/Branch2.
      14. In this example, turn on Allow traffic to be initiated from the remote site.
      15. Click OK.
   5. Configure IPsec VPN at branch 1:
      1. Go to VPN > IPsec Wizard, enter a VPN name, (to_HQ in this example) choose Custom and then click Next.
         • Uncheck Enable IPsec Interface Mode.
         • Choose Static IP Address as Remote Gateway. l Enter IP address, in this example, 1.1.1. l Choose wan1 as interface. l In this example, set Authentication Method to Pre-shared Key. In other cases, use the default.
         • Click OK.
      2. Configure the firewall policy:
         1. Choose the Incoming Interface, in this example, internal.
         2. Choose the Outgoing Interface, in this example, wan1.
         3. Select the Source, Destination, Schedule, Service, and set Action to IPsec.
         4. Select the VPN Tunnel, in this example, to_HQ.
         5. In this example, turn on Allow traffic to be initiated from the remote site.
         6. Click OK.
      3. Configure IPsec VPN at branch 2:
         1. Go to VPN > IPsec Wizard, enter a VPN name, (to_HQ in this example) choose Custom and then click Next.
            • Uncheck Enable IPsec Interface Mode.
            • Choose Static IP Address as Remote Gateway. l Enter IP address, in this example, 1.1.1. l Choose wan1 as interface.
            • In this example, set Authentication Method to Pre-shared Key and the Pre-shared Key is sample. In other cases, use the default.
            • Click OK.
         2. Configure the firewall policy:
            1. Choose the Incoming Interface, in this example, internal.
            2. Choose the Outgoing Interface, in this example, wan1.
            3. Select the Source, Destination, Schedule, Service, and set Action to IPsec.
            4. Select the VPN Tunnel, in this example, to_HQ.
            5. In this example, turn on Allow traffic to be initiated from the remote site.
            6. Click OK.

To configure a policy-based IPsec tunnel using the CLI:
