Vpn para principiantes

[leoalfa09]

Hola a todos he intentado configurar una vpn con openvpn y me surgieron las siguientes dudas-

1- En el ambiente de servidor quien seria el servidor de vpn el pfsense o la maquina que configuro por dentro como servidor por que veo que en uno de los tutoriales se muestra como configurar xp como servidor y cliente-

2- A la hora de que a la interfaz TAP se le asigne ip quein es el encargado de asignar estas ips y deberia ser en el mismo rango que la LAN?

3- que ventajas me da sobre un acceso remoto tipo Terminal Services?

Muchas Gracias

Encontre esto en el foro en ingles se ve muy bueno aqui lo dejo si funciona lo comento en este post muchas gracias

Having spend most of my day to get OpenVPN running from a Windows Vista machine to a network on a pfSense box, i feel that a guide is needed for my kind; Windows-users not familiar with OpenVPN and alike

A guide of how to connect a PC on the internet, to LAN behind a pfSense firewall using OpenVPN also known as a Road-Warrior setup

This guide is NOT detailed regarding different configurations, and may not be the best security practices - so use it at your own risk…

---

First of all you need to have keys and certificates generated in order to configure the pfSense OpenVPN service;

1. Download and install the most recent software from http://openvpn.net/download.html
   If you plan to connect from a PC with Windows Vista you should get version 2.1 or newer (as of this moment its 2.1RC7).

Use the default options

2. Start a command prompt with administrator-rights!
   This is done in Vista by clicking on START and then type CMD -> CMD.EXE should appear, and you RIGHT-Click on it and select 'Run as Administrator'

3. Change directory to c:\programfiles\openvpn\easy-rsa

4. run the "init-config.bat" file

5. Edit 'vars.bat' file.
   I suggest using 'Wordpad' and to be able to save the file again, you need to start Wordpad in the same manner as the command-prompt (see #2)
   The following things need to be edited:

"set KEY_COUNTRY=DK"
2 Letters country ID - I use DK for Denmark

"set KEY_PROVINCE=na"
2 Letters Province ID - I use na as in 'Not Applicable'

"set KEY_CITY=Copenhagen"
Name of city

set KEY_ORG=Frewald
Name of your company

set KEY_EMAIL=youremail@address.com
Put an email-address here. Dont use you private address, since this is the common address for the Certificate Authority (or something...)

Save the file

6. Run "vars.bat"

7. Run "clean-all.bat"

Run "build-ca.bat"
Then you are prompted for some different things; Leave them at default, except "Common Name" - put something like "pfSense-CA"

9. Run "build-key-server.bat server"
   Again you are prompted; leave them on default except "Common Name" - use "server"

10. Run build-dh.bat

---

Now its time to generate keys and certificates for the client(s)

11. Run "build-key.bat ovpn_client1"
    Again you are prompted; leave them on default except "Common Name" - here you should put in "ovpn_client1" (or whatever you have called it)
    The ovpn_client1 will be the name of the keys, certificate and the name you identify the connection on later. You can use whatever name you like, and generate as many as you want (with different names).

12. The following files should now be copied from c:\programfiles\openvpn
    easy-rsa\keys to c:\programfiles\openvpn\config
    ca.crt
    ovpn_client1.key
    ovpn_client1.crt (if you dont see a .crt file but only a .csr file, chances are that you dont have admin priviligies. Worst case generate the keys and certificates on a NON-Vista machine)

13. Make a file in the c:\programfiles\openvpn\config
    called "ovpn_client1.ovpn" and the file should contain (leave out the hashes):

client
dev tun
proto udp
remote 64.233.167.99 1194
ping 10
resolv-retry infinite
nobind
persist-key
persist-tun
ca ca.crt
cert ovpn_client1.crt
key ovpn_client1.key
ns-cert-type server
comp-lzo
pull
verb 3

Please put in your own public IP address of you pfSense-box in the 'remote' line
If you have chosen another name than 'ovpn_client1' then change it in the lines beginning with 'cert' and 'key'
If you have more than one VPN client, you make one .ovpn-file per client (with the corresponding .key and .crt name)

---

Now its time to configure pfSense

21. Log into the web-gui of pfSense

22. Select VPN/OpenVPN and ad an entry in the 'server' page
    Use the following settings:
    Protocol: UDP
    Local port: 1194
    Address pool: 192.168.200.0/24 (it should be a network that you DONT currently use)
    Local Network: 192.168.1.0/24 or whatever the network is that you want the VPN client to connect to
    Remote Network: blank
    Cryptography: BF-CBC (128 bit) - or use what you want
    Authentication Method: PKI

Now you need to have access to some of the files created in c:\programfiles\openvpn
easy-rsa\keys (mentioned in #12)
23) Copy the WHOLE content of ca.crt into the "CA certificate" window
24) Copy the WHOLE content of server.crt into the "Server Certificate" window
25) Copy the WHOLE content of server.key into the "Server Key" window
26) Copy the WHOLE content of dh1024.pem into the "DH parameters" window

27. Tick DHCP-Opt: Disable NetBIOS (I dont use it anyway)

28. Tick LZO Compression

---

Now we need a few simple rules in the firewall

31. On the WAN interface you should make a rule that;
    PASS
    WAN
    Protocol: UDP
    source: any
    OS type: any
    Destination: any
    Destination port range from: OpenVPN
    Destination port range to: OpenVPN
    Tick in the LOG
    Leave the rest at default.

32. and another rule on the interface called LAN (or whatever the name of the net defined in #22 'address pool' is);

PASS
Any protocol
Source: LAN (or whatever the name of the net defined in #22 'address pool' is)
Any destination

Remember to apply the new rules.

Now you should be able to connect from OpenVPN (rightlick on the icon in the try and select Connect).
But remember to start OpenVPN with ADMIN RIGHTS!

A small trick; If you want a specific client to be able to access more than one subnet, you can add a 'Client Specific Configuration' in pfSense;
Find it in the "WebGui/VPN/OpenVPN/Client-Specific configuration", use the Common Name given in #11 (ovpn_client1) and in custom options add the following line
push "route 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0"
if thats the subnet that you want to have connection to.

Hope this small guide provides some help to those of us who isn't much into *nix and OpenVPN.

There is problably a bunch of typ'O's - please write a comment when you see one that needs to be corrected...

This setup is working on my current setup:
pfSense 1.2 RC4 now running on 1.2 RELASE
OpenVPN 2.1 RC7

Please visit http://openvpn.net/howto.htm for much more indepth info

Best regards,
Frewald

Small update:
If you later would like to add new clients, run point 2,3,6, and continue from point 11! - dont run point 7-8-9-10!!!!
Also note you need to do this on the machine that was orignally used to issue the certificates.

leo, nose si te servirá aún, pero te paso el link a un excelente tutorial que hizo bellera (veraz quien es el en el foro) sobre como montar openvpn con pfsense

http://www.bellera.cat/josep/pfsense/openvpn_cs.html

a mi me servio y mucho…

la única diferencia que hice con respecto a lo que menciona el tutorial es que en lugar de build-key client utilice build-key-pkcs12,
pero por lo demás, tengo una vpn funcionando hace 6,7 meses sin ningun tipo de problemas y con uso intensivo también.

salu2

Funciono perfecto espero que este post le funcione a futuras personas que quieran implementar openvpn

Una buena opcion para VPN para principiantes es hacer un VPN PPTP es sencilla y hay un tutorial en el wiki de pfsense..
