IPSEC mobile client in transport mode: possible? No subnets defined somehow
-
As I struggled to get OpenVPN working for an external LTE-Router (Westermo MRD405) we switched to doing a IPSEC-mobile-client setup.
The main goal: an external site with subnet 172.16.160.0/27 behind that Westermo-Router should dial in via (some) VPN, and be tunneled to a local VLAN. A controller PC in that VLAN is accessible already via (1) OpenVPN Roadwarrior (= the external admin of the appliances at the sites) and (2) from LAN in-house.
I followed https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/vpn/ipsec/configuring-an-ipsec-remote-access-mobile-vpn-using-ikev1-xauth.html AFAIK, but switched to "transport mode" as we need the remote subnet routed and not only one IP.
Is that possible at all?
I have a valid tunnel in "IPSEC - Status", logs look good mostly, but we don't get the subnets routed:
con-mobile: #8 Local subnets: /0[udp/l2f] Remote subnets: /0[udp/l2f]Do we need L2TP for that??
I allowed UDP/1701 on IPSEC interface without change.
I can't choose subnets in my Phase2 definition etc and I am stuck somehow.The remote router also has no IPs, see logs:

And maybe I should go back to OpenVPN and fix the issues there (we only pinged the tunnel endpoints but not through. Another thread then ...)
thanks, Stefan
PS: PFS and DPD disabled right now to get it working first.

Thanks ;-)
I don't have issues with Site2Site-IPSEC when they have both static IPs, which isn't the case here.
I also have a IPSEC doc for the MRD-405 already, but not for transport mode.We figured out the encryption and xauth as you can see, but the IP routing is my problem here.
-
The transport mode is configured only for host-host connection. You need tunnel mode.
Phase 2 settings
Mode: Tunnel
Local Network: (the local network, e.g. LAN, or 0.0.0.0/0 to send everything over VPN)
Protocol: ESP
Encryption Algorithms: AES 128 only
Hash Algorithms: SHA1 only
PFS key group: off
Lifetime: 28800Then your device will get a virtual IP
And already then it is necessary to think of routing through ipsec tunnel ( if it is possible ) -
thanks. We had most of that and get
Feb 11 15:32:16 charon 15[IKE] <con-mobile|1> no matching CHILD_SA config found [..] Feb 11 15:32:26 charon 15[IKE] <con-mobile|1> received retransmit of request with ID 2293249901, but no response to retransmitDo we need a tunnel network in VPN/IPsec/Mobile Clients : "Virtual Private Network"
"Network List" ?
auth is fine, Phase1 as well.
thanks

@sgw
Show phase 2 settings on both sides of the tunnel
and PFSense IPSec log -
I have to leave now I can only share the last part of the remote site logs.

my phase2:
tunnel ANLAGEN ESP AES (128 bits) SHA1
and I don't have "Remote subnet" in there (maybe correct because of dynamic IP on mobile side)
My Local Subnet is a VLAN, maybe I miss firewall rules? But I assume that comes later, at first we need the phase2 up, right?

@sgw said in
I think such a connection is impossible ,I should think , still, this type of connection is used for RW (road warrior) -
When there is no fixed ip address, for site-site connection I would recommend openvpn tunnel
-
@konstanti Yes, I see ... we had the openvpn tunnel up already and pinged the tunnel endpoints, but not the nets behind. Maybe settings on the LTE-router, maybe my fault. We will retry on friday, the other admin is away till then.
EDIT: I will maybe open another topic in "openvpn" section, but just mentioning:
/27 on remote side, allowing that source net to OPENVPN interface and target net /24 (VLAN). Unsure if that should be enough. Didn't see blocked packages in firewall logs. -
@sgw
there need correctly configure the OPENVPN server
so that the client know about 10.135.16.195 and the server about 172.16.160.0/27 -
@konstanti that 10.135.16.195 ... don't know what that is. Maybe the dynamic WAN on the remote client side. Will check as soon as the admin gets back there. Thanks!
AND we have MultiWAN on our side. I had to add some rule back then, haven't found it yet.
-
yeah, probably.
On the OpenVPN side of the server, in the Tunnel Settings section, you can specify- IPv4 Local Network - the network to which you need access from the server side
- IPv4 Remote network - 172.16.160.0/27 (network for routing through tunnel)
In this case, the client will know about the remote network behind the server and the server will know about your network 172.16.160.0/27
and shouldn't be a problem

Yes, we got that. Wrote to the guy, waiting for his changes, tomorrow, I assume.
I also made him change that /27 to /24, just to remove any special stuff to get it working first, then goon from there. -
@sgw
Good )))
If there are problems after establishing the connection, look at the routing table on your router-is there a route to the server network ? And at the other side of the tunnel, too, will have to check it ) -

No routes to that /27 on pfsense, although the ovpn-tunnel was up and we could ping the tunnel-endpoints. So I wait for /27 -> /24 to remove that q.

@sgw
You can always create a static route to the server network , but it is better to do everything correctly so that the server itself sends this information to the client )))
