Multicast VPN support in RV042?

Hello,
A quick check of the user manual for the RV042 didn't reveal in crystal clarity whether the RV042 will tunnel multicast packets (between two RV042s).
What I'd like to create is a VPN between two different offices. Some of the applications use multicast, and it's crucial that these apps 'see' each other in both offices (via VPN).
The RV042 manual does mention a "multicast pass through" setting, but it didn't mention whether enabling this applies to a VPN connection established between the two offices, such that any multicast packet on LAN #1 is reflected to LAN #2 (and vice versa) through the VPN.
Has anyone used RV042s to create a VPN between to locations/offices, and turned on multicast pass through? Have you found that apps which use multicast (e.g., iChat on Mac OS X, Bonjour advertised infranet websites, etc.) have their multicast traffic properly appear on both LANs?
Thanks,
Keith

Are there any Cisco [or Linksys by Cisco] routers which support Multicast VPN (multicast packets tunneled over VPN)? Looks like there are a number of white papers on this topic, but I've yet to identify a particular model with this functionality.
Thanks,
Keith

  • Multicast VPN Extranet Support doesn't work after reload

    Hi!
    We have Cat6500 with configured Multicast VPN Extranet Support feature. After reload of the 6500 customers in the receive MVPN cannot get mcast stream. We connect test device into source MVPN on that 6500 - everything is OK, mcast stream is available.
    Workaround is "no mls ip multicast/mls ip multicast". After these commands mcast in the receive MVPN works fine.
    IOS 12.2 SXJ2
    Looks like a bug. We have several Cat6500 but only two of them have this issue.
    Does anybody faced with such trouble?

  • Remote Access VPN Support in Multiple Context Mode (9.1(2))?

    Hi Guys,
    I am currently running two Cisco ASA5520 (ASA Version: 9.1(2)) firewalls in Active/Standby failover and was contemplating the option of migrating my remote access VPN to these firewalls. However seeing that the new IOS now support mixed multiple context mode and dynamic routing. Is it safe to ask whether or not Remote Access VPN is now support in this IOS upgrade?
    Multiple Context Mode New Features:
    Site-to-Site VPN in multiple context mode | Site-to-site VPN tunnels are now supported in multiple context mode.
    New resource type for site-to-site VPN tunnels | New resource types, vpn other and vpn burst other, were created to set the maximum number of site-to-site VPN tunnels in each context.
    Dynamic routing in Security Contexts | EIGRP and OSPFv2 dynamic routing protocols are now supported in multiple context mode. OSPFv3, RIP, and multicast routing are not supported.
    New resource type for routing table entries | A new resource class, routes, was created to set the maximum number of routing table entries in each context. We modified the following commands: limit-resource, show resource types, show resource usage, show resource allocation. We modified the following screen: Configuration > Context Management > Resource Class > Add Resource Class.
    Mixed firewall mode support in multiple context mode | You can set the firewall mode independently for each security context in multiple context mode, so some can run in transparent mode while others run in routed mode. We modified the following command: firewall transparent. You cannot set the firewall mode in ASDM; you must use the command-line interface. Also available in Version 8.5(1).
    Regards,
    Leon

    Hey Leon,
    According to the ASA 9.1 Configuration Guide, Remote Access VPN is not yet supported with version 9.1(2). Only Site-to-Site VPN support in multiple context was introduced with release ASA 9.0(x). This was mentioned in the 9.0(x) release notes.

  • Help with setting up a VPN on a RV042

    Is there any documentation out there on a step-by-step instructions on setting up a vpn on a RV042 router?

    Scott,
    You can Google RV042 vpn setup and many links will displayed on how to set up vpn. This might be versions 1 & 2 with different looking interfaces but general setup is the same.
    Also if you go to cisco.com website you also can search for RV042 setup guides. Link below was brought up using (RV042 vpn setup) @ cisco.com search.

  • Vpn support

    Hello everybody!
    I have a TimeCapsule which is now using as primary WiFi station for every device at home.
    Unfortunately I have to use one more device Dlink WiFi router due to Time Capsule issue with VPN support.
    Q:
    Have any way to up & runing VPN on TimeCapwule (not paththrough) ?

    No, the TC is not able to do vpn.. not in user accessible way. Apple provide very little access to the TC setup to keep it simple.
    Ever since iCloud support was added the TC can interfere with vpn though because behind the scenes the TC has ipsec vpn for that purpose.. I am guessing but I think that is the issue. Use pptp should be ok as pass through.

  • Forwarding L2TP to an internal Windows 2008 R2 VPN server behind RV042

    Hi all,
    we have a Cisco RV042 router and we wanted to use a Win 2k8 R2 VPN server that is located behind it to handle L2TP VPN connections.
    I have forwarded Ports 500 and 4500 UDP and Port 1701 TCP and UDP to the VPN server, but I cannot establish a connection from my Windows 7 machine. I'm getting error 809 after a timeout.
    It is working from the iPhone and the Mac without problems. 
    I have already set the parameter "AssumeUDPEncapsulationContextOnSendRule" to 2 in the registry of both the client and the server but with no effect.
    My guess is that I cannot forward "IP Protocol 50" from the RV042 and that the iPhone VPN does not care about that but the Windows VPN does and so it's not working. Or is it possible that the active PPTP server on the RV042 could interfere here? It should be using different ports though. 
    Any idea how I could make this setup work? 
    Thanks 
    Regards,
    Michael

    This router is now supported on the Cisco forums since the sale of Linksys to Belkin. I had issues with L2TP with a different router. I just switched to PPTP instead. I've found PPTP much more forgiving between devices.

  • Lack of standard VPN support on BlackBerry

    The way BlackBerry handles VPN especially for consumers are stuck in the last century. Wether the corporation needs BES added into their IT system is their call. But tons of corporation relies on IPSec L2TP or PPTP VPN for their employees to access internal network or emails. These protocols are industry standards for ages. Simply by only offering options for BES is a closed loop. Not to mention when you travel internationally to countries censors websites like Twitter, FaceBook, YouTube.

    Currently PPTP isn't supported.  It should be coming through a future update.

  • Feature Request : Router to Router VPN support

    I realize this has been highlighted earlier as not being supported currently, but it would be very useful to allow additional subnets into the NM sphere (my assumption would be one Home network and additinal subnets treated as foreign networks).  Any clues as to whether the PN platform would be flexible enough to support this (in the future), for example with the facility to add subnet ranges as an additional option?  I think some basic assumptions would have to be made (e.g that NETBIOS is supported to allow identification of devices)
    My main reason for requesting this would be to get an overview of resources available at the other end of the VPN (file servers, printers etc.) - currently I have to do this with an addional application.
    Look forward to your thoughts,
    Simon T.

    Hi, at this time NM only can scan inside your local subnet, but that sounds like a good idea.
    My Cisco Network Magic Configuration:
    Router: D-Link WBR-2310 A1 FW:1.04, connected to Comcast High Speed Internet
    Desktop, iMac: NM is on the Windows Partition, using Boot camp to access Windows, Windows 7 Pro 32-bit RTM, Broadcom Wireless N Card, McAfee Personal Firewall 2009,
    Mac Partition of the iMac is using Mac OS X 10.6.1 Snow Leopard
    Laptop: Windows XP Pro SP3, Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG, McAfee Personal Firewall 2008
    Please note that though I am a beta tester for Network Magic, I am not a employee of Linksys/Cisco and am volunteering my time here to help other NM users.

  • Good CCIE question: Can multiple site-2-site VPNs support dynamic routing protocols?

    Hi All,
    Was not sure if this should be posted in LAN routing, WAN routing or VPN forums: I have posted here as the VPN tunnels are the limiting factors...
    I am trying to understand if it is possible to have dynamic routing between LANs when using site to site VPNs on three or more ASA55x5-x (9.0).
    To best explain the question I have put together an example scenario:
    Lets say we have three sites, which are all connected via a separate site-2-site IKEv2 VPNs, in a full mesh topology (6 x SAs).
    Across the whole system there would be a 192.168.0.0/16 subnet which is divided up by VLSM across all sites.
    The inside / outside interfaces of the ASA would be static IPs from a /30 subnet.
    Routing on the outside interface is not of concern in this scenario.
    The inside interface of the ASA connects directly to a router, which further uses VLSM to assign additional subnets.
    VLSM is not cleanly summarised per site. (I know this flys against VLSM best practice, but makes the scenario clearer...)
    New subnets are added and removed at each site on a frequent basis.
    EIGRP will be running on each core router, and any stub routers at each site.
    So this results in the following example topology, of which I have exaggerated the VLSM position:
    (http://www.diagram.ly/?share=#OtprIYuOeKRb3HBV6Qy8CL8ZUE6Bkc2FPg2gKHnzVliaJBhuIG)
    Now, using static route redistribution from the ASAs into EIGRP and making the ASAs to be an EIGRP neighbour, would be one way. This would mean an isolated EIGRP AS per site, but each site would only learn about a new remote subnet if the crypto map match ACL was altered. But the bit that I am confused over, is the potential to have new subnets added or removed which would require EIGRP routing processes on the relevant site X router to be altered as well as crypto map ACLs being altered at all sites. This doesn't seem a sensible approach...
    The second method could be to have the 192.168.0.0/16 network defined in the crypto map on all tunnels and allow the ASAs routing table to chose which tunnel to send the traffic over. This would require multiple neighbours for the ASA, but for example in OSPF, it can only support one neighbour over a S2S VPN when manually defined (point-to-point). The only way round this I can see is to share our internal routing tables with the IP cloud, but this then discloses information that would be otherwise protected by the IPSEC tunnel...
    Is there a better method to propagate the routing information dynamically around the example scenario above?
    Is there a way to have dynamic crypto maps based on router information?
    P.S. Diagram above produced via http://www.diagram.ly/

    Hi Guys,
    Thanks for your responses!  I am learning here, hence the post.
    David: I had looked in to the potential for GRE tunnels, but the side-effects could out weight the benifits.  The link provided shows how to pass IKEv1 and ISAKMP traffic through the ASA.  In my example (maybe not too clear?) the IPSEC traffic would be terminated on the ASA and not the core router behind.
    Marcin: Was looking at OSPF, but is that not limited to one neighbour, due to the "ospf network point-to-point non-broadcast" command in the example (needed to force the unicast over the IPSEC tunnel)? Have had a look in the ASA CLI 9.0 config guide and it is still limited to one neighbour per interface when in point-to-point:
    ospf network point-to-point non-broadcastSpecifies the interface as a point-to-point, non-broadcast network.When you designate an interface as point-to-point and non-broadcast, you must manually define the OSPF neighbor; dynamic neighbor discovery is not possible. See the "Defining Static OSPFv2 Neighbors" section for more information. Additionally, you can only define one OSPF neighbor on that interface.
    Otherwise I would agree it would be happy days...
    Any other ideas (maybe around iBGPs like OSPF) which do not envolve GRE tunnels or terminating the IPSEC on the core router please?
    Kindest Regards,
    James.

  • Multicast VPN QoS

    Hi,
    How do we configure QoS for MVPN on 7600. IOS is 12.2(33)SRC. There is no support for the command set ip dsp tunnel <value>. Is there any other way.
    Regards,
    Prakash

    Hello Prakash,
    Cisco MVPN implementation uses multipoint GRE tunnels to forward multicast packets from customer network via provider network.
    So for MVPN QoS applies what applies to unicast traffic.
    the multicast packet is carried inside a GRE header with source and destination that are PE loopbacks on the provider network.
    I'm not sure but the GRE header TOS byte should be a copy of the carried packet's TOS byte.
    If so just have in the core links' schedulers classes that classify traffic based on ip dscp or MPLS EXP (match-any)
    see
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/routers/7600/ios/12.2SR/configuration/guide/mvpn.html
    and for PFC QoS
    PFC QoS processes both unicast and multicast traffic.
