Unable to create a VPN tunnel on ASA5505

Hey everyone,
This is my first attempt at setting up a VPN with Cisco router and I am running into some trouble.
We have been provided values for our end of the tunnel, but the company on the other side will not provide any help what so ever in setting it up.
I have the ASA 5505 up and running as a router, and I attempted to create the VPN using the VPN wizard with the values I was given. However, once I do so I can't seem to get the tunnel to actually connect.
Since this is my first attempt at setting up a VPN using a cisco router I certainly can't rule out the possibility that I am doing something stupid.. Hopefully someone here can point out what it might be. :)
I've attached an excerpt of the asa5505's log, and the asa5505's running configuration.

The local network is 192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0, the remote network is 192.168.50.0 255.255.255.0.
The settings I was given were:
Phase1 -
Encryption: 3DES
Hash: SHA
DH: 1
Lifetime: 86400
Preshared Key:
Phase2 -
ESP Encryption 3DES
ESP Authentication
Lifetime 28800
The hash type for phase2 was not specified (unless I am misunderstanding what I copied above), so I am guessing they either want None or SHA.. but they won't give me an answer to that question. I have tried both without any luck.
After re-reading your message it occurs to me that the IP range they have for us on the remote end is probably 192.168.27.0 255.255.255.0. So that is probably one piece of the problem. However, I previously had the asa in the 192.168.27.0 subnet and I had the exact same errors then, which leads me to believe that it is something with the encryption/hash settings.

Can a Juniper SSG 5 create a VPN tunnel to a sonicwall TZ215 for site to site?

Ok awesome, thanks.

Hello all, at my main location (FL) I have a Sonicwall tz215, but also have an older Juniper SSG 5. I am wanting to put a backup server at our NY location, and was wondering if I would be able to create a VPN tunnel with the Juniper to the tz215 without having to buy another sonicwall to allow for offsite backups.
If anyone has info, or even a basic yes or no if this is possible, it would save me a lot of trouble trying to figure out how to get it done.
Thanks!

Include multiple sub-interfaces in Cisco ASA for VPN tunnel

I am trying to create a VPN tunnel between two Cisco ASAs where one ASA has multiple sub-interfaces.
Say, In Cisco ASA 5550(in datacentre), I created multiple subinterfaces with VLAN ID as below:
Inside, int0/1 : 10.1.1.0/24
DMZ, int0/1.100: 10.1.100.0/24 (VLAN 100)
Production, int 0/1.101 : 10.1.101.0/24 (VLAN 101)
Management, int 0/1.102: 10.1.102.0/24 (VLAN 102)
And another Cisco ASA 5505 is only configured with 1 x inside interface Inside, int 0/1: 192.168.1.0/24
So far, I have only been able to provide outside access to one of the sub-interfaces as NAT rule on inside interface didn't work for VLANs. Hence had to issue Global NAT rule to be applied on Production subinterface so that production VLAN can have outside access. I have managed to establish VPN tunnel between two ASAs on Production sub-interface only, Source interface = Production subinterface
Additional settings:
Have ACL to allow all sub interfaces to access outsite ( lower security level)
NAT rules is configured on Production subinterface with Source NAT Type as Dynamic PAT; when this was configured with source interface as inside, PCs behind various VLAN coun't access internet.
I want to establish a site-to-site VPN tunnel with multiple sub-interfaces of Cisco ASA 5550 to Cisco ASA 5505. Would you please suggest what I am missing in my configuration? I need to be able to access multiple VLANs of datacentre from remote site.

Cisco CA + Cisco VPN Client - Error 42: Unable to create certificate enrolment request

We find ourselves in a difficult situation with the
Cisco VPN Cleint version 5.0.07.0290 where it keeps giving us an
"Error 42: Unable to create certificate enrolment request" when we attempt to use the Online enrolment method to create and enrol a new certificate.
There is no additional information in the VPN client logs where we have set 3-High for all logs.
In addition, Wireshark does not show any packets sent from the machine running the client to the Cisco 3825 router which runs the Cisco CA.
To create and enrol a certificate we do the following:
1. Click on the Enroll button to show the Certificate Enrolment dialog
2. Select Online
3. Select <New> for Certificate Authority
4. Enter http://192.168.120.1 as CA URL (note, 192.168.120.1 is the IP of the Cisco 3825)
5. Click Next to display the dialog where we can enter certificate details
6. Enter details in all fileds except IP Address and Domain
7. Click Enroll which shows a dilaog with the Error 42 ... message in it.
If we attempt to create a request by using the File method, all works fine, that is, the client creates a file with the enrolment request.
The fact that the client does not send any messages to the Cisco CA leads us to belive that we have a pronblem on the clinet machine. However, the client does not write any information in the logs, so it is a bit hard to fix the problem.
We will be grateful for any assistance that you can provide with this issue. I can provide additional configuration information if required for both the client and the Cisco CA. Note that we have not modified any client configuration. Basically, we installed the clinet on a Windows 7 64bit machine and attempted the steps listed above.
Thank you
Emil

FYI, I just came up against this problem and the solution in my instance was to ensure that the Cisco CA Server was configured to automatically grant certificate requests.
Cisco2691#conf t
Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
Cisco2691(config)#crypto pki server CERTSERVER

Unable to print from HQ to Branch through the VPN tunnel between ASAs

We have site to site VPN configured between ASAs. The VPN tunnel is up and running as desired except for one printer in the subnet. the users in the Hq cannot print in the branch office printer. I have allowed the ip protocols for the printer subnet but still it is not working. When I do a packet trac the traffic for the printer is allwed through the tunnel.
Can anyone suggest what can be preventing from printing?

When other printers in the same subnet can be reached, I would first control the IP-settings of the printer. In my experience it's most likely a wrong subnet-mask or gateway.

Can i use same address pool for different remote access VPN tunnel groups and policy

Hi all,
i want to create a different remote access VPN profile in ASA. ihave one RA vpn already configured for some purpose.
can i use the same ip address pool used for the existing one for the new tunnel-group (to avoid add rotuing on internal devices for new pool) and its a temporary requirement)
thanks in advance
Shnail

Thanks Karsten..
but still i can have filtering right? iam planning to create a new group policy and tunnelgroup and use the existing pool for new RA and i have to do some filetring also. for the new RA i have to restrict access to a particualr server ,my existing RA have full access.
so iam planning to create new local usernames for the new RA and new group policy with vpn-filter value access-list to apply for that user as below, this will achive waht i need right??

Cisco ASA 5505 Site to Site VPN tunnel up, but not passing traffic

Thanks to a previous thread, I do have a 5505 up and running, and passing data....
https://supportforums.cisco.com/message/3900751
Now I am trying to get a IPSEC VPN tunnel working.
I actually have it up (IKE phase 1 & 2 both passed), but it is not sending/receiving data through the tunnel.
The networks concerned:
name 10.0.0.0 Eventual (HQ Site behind Firewall)
name 1.1.1.0 CFS (Public Network Gateway for Palo Alto Firewall - Firewall IP: 1.1.1.1)
name 2.2.2.0 T1 (Remote site - Outside interface of 5505: 2.2.2.2)
name 10.209.0.0 Local (Remote Network - internal interface of 5505: 10.209.0.3)
On a ping to the HQ network from behind the ASA, I get....
portmap translation creation failed for icmp src inside:10.209.0.9 dst inside:10.0.0.33 (type 8, code 0)
I am suspecting that there is a NAT error and/or a lack of a static route for the rest of the 10.0.0.0 traffic, and that I may have to exempt/route the traffic for the HQ network (10.0.0.0), but I haven't been able to get the correct entries to make it work.
Below is the config.
Can anyone see if there is something sticking out?

ASA 5505 site-to-site VPN tunnel and client VPN sessions

Hello all
I have several years of general networking experience, but I have not yet had to set up an ASA from the ground up, so please bear with me.
I have a client who needs to establish a VPN tunnel from his satellite office (Site A) to his corporate office (Site Z). His satellite office will have a single PC sitting behind the ASA. In addition, he needs to be able to VPN from his home (Site H) to Site A to access his PC.
The first question I have is about the ASA 5505 and the various licensing options. I want to ensure that an ASA5505-BUN-K9 will be able to establish the site-to-site tunnel as well as allow him to use either the IPsec or SSL VPN client to connect from Site H to Site A. Would someone please confirm or deny that for me?
Secondly, I would like to verify that no special routing or configuration would need to take place in order to allow traffic not destined for Site Z (i.e., general web browsing or other traffic to any resource that is not part of the Site Z network) to go out his outside interface without specifically traversing the VPN tunnel (split tunneling?)
Finally, if the client were to establish a VPN session from Site H to Site A, would that allow for him to connect directly into resources at Site Z without any special firewall security rules? Since the VPN session would come in on the outside interface, and the tunnel back to Site Z goes out on the same interface, would this constitute a split horizon scenario that would call for a more complex config, or will the ASA handle that automatically without issue?
I don't yet have the equipment in-hand, so I can't provide any sample configs for you to look over, but I will certainly do so once I've got it.
Thanks in advance for any assistance provided!

First question:
Yes, 5505 will be able to establish site-to-site tunnel, and he can use IPSec vpn client, and SSL VPN (it comes with 2 default SSL VPN license).
Second question:
Yes, you are right. No special routing is required. All you need to configure is site-to-site VPN between Site A and Site Z LAN, and the internet traffic will be routed via Site A internet. Assuming you have all the NAT statement configured for that.
Last question:
This needs to be configured, it wouldn't automatically allow access to Site Z when he VPNs in to Site A.
Here is what needs to be configured:
1) Split tunnel ACL for VPN Client should include both Site Z and Site A LAN subnets.
2) On site A configures: same-security-traffic permit intra-interface
3) Crypto ACL for the site-to-site tunnel between Site Z and Site A needs to include the VPN Client pool subnet as follows:
On Site Z:
access-list permit ip
On Site A:
access-list permit ip
4) NAT exemption on site Z needs to include vpn client pool subnet as well.
Hope that helps.

VPN tunnel Problem

Hi all ,
I need create VPN tunnels between two ASAs devices . And these devices are connected through DSL . And as you know in this case we use private outside IP address , because there is a NAT device at the outside . The problem is that no VPN tunnel is created even though all the parameters and the pre-shared-key are typical .

I hve allready configured following configuration.
no crypto map newmap interface outside
no crypto map newmap 171 set peer 195.11.199.144
no isakmp key ********* address 195.11.199.144 netmask 255.255.255.255 no-xauth no-config-mode
crypto map newmap 171 set peer 195.11.204.5
isakmp key ******** address 195.11.204.5 netmask 255.255.255.255 no-xauth no-config-mode
clear crypto ipsec sa
clear crypto isakmp sa
crypto map newmap interface outside
Setting were applied successfully however Still VPN tunnel is not been initiated.

SSL VPN Tunnel and Windows 7

Hi
I have a SA520W with firmware 2.1.18 and are having huge trouble getting windows 7 clients to connect using the SSL VPN Tunnel in Split mode. I've tested the registered users using an XP machine, and they are able to log in just fine and I can ping servers on the inside of the network. On windows 7, however, the VPN tunnel is created, but no IP trafic flows over the virtual network adapter and I'm not able to ping resources on the inside of the network. For the XP clients, the SSL VPN tunnel works like a charm, but not not 7.
Are there any consideration to be taken on windows 7 to enable trafic over the SSL VPN virtual network adapter?
Windows firewall?
SSL service?

Hi skcisco11,
You can alternatively use Cisco VPN Client if your SA520 has firmware version 2.1.18 and above. Here is a document how to set it up:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/multi_function_security/multi_function_security_appliance/sa_500/technote/note/SA500_vpnclient_appnote.pdf
Alternatively, please use the following document on how to setup SSL VPN. If you are using a local database on the SA520 to authenticate users,, then ignore the references to Active Directory.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/security/multi_function_security/multi_function_security_appliance/sa_500/technote/note/active_directory.pdf
Hope this helps,
Julio

2 VPN Tunnels between 2 devices on separate links

Hello,
I have a 2811 connected to two different ISPs, implying I have 2 separate interfaces for both links. I initially setup a VPN tunnel to a 3rd party remote site on one of the links/interfaces. I am now required to setup an additonal VPN tunnel to the same remote site on the other interface/link. When I finish the config and run tests, I get an error saying that the crypto map is not applied on the correct interface and that the peer is being routed through a non-crypto map interface.
One thing I would like to know is if it is possible to configure the router to establish these two tunnels on the different links/interfaces to the same peer. Please note that the first VPN tunnel is still active, but the other one has just refused to come up. Please see the snippets of my router config below:

So its the tunnel running on ISP1 that is fine while the tunnel on ISP2 is not coming up.
While pasting this though, I just realized there is no default route for ISP2, could this be the problem and would adding another default route not create some sort of loop?
Regards,
Femi

Hello Marcin,
When you said I didnt need to put both ISPs into VRF, i assume you meant that I only needed to put on f the ISPs into VRF, specifically the other ISP I was trying to establish a new VPN connection over?
I did read the cheat sheet thoroughly and also went through some other documents. However, I still cound not get out of the router as the router kept complaining about routing issues:
1. The peer must be routed through the crypto map interface. The following peer(s) are routed through non-crypto map interface - a.b.130.130
2. The tunnel traffic destination must be routed through the crypto map interface. The following destinations are routed through non-crypto map interface - a.b.130.134
Below is the config I applied but I didnt get traffic out of the router still to even attempt to establish a connection:

How can I improve performance over a Branch Office IPsec vpn tunnel between and SA540 and an SA520

Hello,
I just deployed one Cisco SA540 and three SA520s.
The SA540 is at the Main Site.
The three SA520s are the the spoke sites.
Main Site:
Downstream Speed: 32 Mbps
Upstream Speed: 9.4 Mbps
Spoke Site#1:
Downstream Speed: 3.6 Mbps
Upstream Speed: 7.2 Mbps (yes, the US is faster than the DS at the time the speed test was taken).
The SA tunnels are "Established"
I see packets being tranmsitted and received.
Pinging across the tunnel has an average speed of 32 ms (which is good).
DNS resolves names to ip addresses flawlessly and quickly across the Inter-network.
But it takes from 10 to 15 minutes to log on to the domain from the Spoke Site#1 to the Main Site across the vpn tunnel.
It takes about 15 minutes to print across the vpn tunnel.
The remedy this, we have implemented Terminal Services across the Internet.
Printing takes about 1 minute over the Terminal Service Connection, while it takes about 15 minutes over the VPN.
Logging on to the network takes about 10 minutes over the vpn tunnel.
Using an LOB application takes about 2 minutes per transaction across the vpn tunnel; it takes seconds using Terminal Services.
I have used ASAs before in other implementation without any issues at all.
I am wondering if I replaced the SAs with ASAs, that they may fix my problem.
I wanted to go Small Business Pro, to take advantage of the promotions and because I am a Select Certified Partner, but from my experience, these SA vpn tunnels are unuseable.
I opened a case with Small Business Support on Friday evening, but they couldnt even figure out how to rename an IKE Policy Name (I figured out that you had to delete the IKE Policy; you cannot rename them once they are created).
Maybe the night weekend shift has a skeleton crew, and the best engineers are available at that time or something....i dont know.
I just know that my experience with the Cisco TAC has been great for the last 10 years.
My short experience with the Cisco Small Business Support Center has not been as great at all.
Bottom Line:
I am going to open another case with the Day Shift tomorrow and see if they can find a way to speed things up.
Now this is not just happening between the Main Site and Spoke Site #1 above. It is also happeninng between the Main Site and Spoke #2 (I think Spoke#2 has a Download Speed of about 3Mbps and and Upload Speed of about 0.5 Mbps.
Please help.
I would hate to dismiss SA5xx series without making sure it is not just a simple configuration setting.

Hi Anthony,
I agree!. My partner wants to just replace the SA5xxs with ASAs, as we have never had problems with ASA vpn performance.
But I want to know WHY this is happening too.
I will definitely run a sniffer trace to see what is happening.
Here are some other things I have learned from the Cisco Small Business Support Center (except for Item 1 which I learned from you!)
1. Upgrade the SA540 at the Main Site to 2.1.45.
2a. For cable connections, use the standard MTU of 1500 bytes.
2.b For DSL, use the following command to determine the largets MTU that will be sent without packet fragmentation:
ping -f -l packetsize
Perform the items below to see if this increases performance:
I was told by the Cisco Small Business Support Center that setting up a Manual Policy is not recommended; I am not sure why they stated this.
3a. Lower the IKE encryption algorithm from "AES-128" to DES.
3b. Lower the IKE authentication algorithm to MD5
3c. Also do the above for the VPN Policy
Any input is welcome!

Unable to create a connection for Discussion Forums.

Hi,
I have my WC_Spaces and WC_Colloboration Servers running actively. When I try to create a new connection by right-clicking Connections in Applications Resources and choose Discussion Forums and too I entered the URL and admin fields, I find its unable to create a new connection. The error displayed is : "Failed to verify connection". Please help me with this.
Regards,
Dinesh Vishnu Kumar

Hi,
In your webcenter application you have created the discussion forum connection and you have connections.xml file in your application.Open the connections.xml in jdeveloper and check the discussion forum connection entry.
For example here I have written down my entry on forum connection-
<Reference name="Discussion Forum Connection" className="oracle.adf.mbean.share.connection.webcenter.forum.ForumConnection" xmlns="">
<Factory className="oracle.adf.mbean.share.connection.webcenter.forum.ForumConnectionFactory"/>
<RefAddresses>
<StringRefAddr addrType="forum.url">
<Contents>http://localhost:8890/owc_discussions</Contents>
</StringRefAddr>
<StringRefAddr addrType="admin.user">
<Contents>weblogic</Contents>
</StringRefAddr>
<StringRefAddr addrType="connection.time.out">
<Contents/>
</StringRefAddr>
<StringRefAddr addrType="policy.uri.for.auth.access">
<Contents/>
</StringRefAddr>
<StringRefAddr addrType="policy.uri.for.public.access">
<Contents/>
</StringRefAddr>
<StringRefAddr addrType="recipient.key.alias">
<Contents/>
</StringRefAddr>
<StringRefAddr addrType="adapter.name">
<Contents>Jive</Contents>
</StringRefAddr>
</RefAddresses>
</Reference>
Change the required entries with your values(for serveraddress,port and admin user).
One more thing need to consider that is -
in jdeveloper proxy ,add the server address in exception list and restart the jdeveloper.
Sometimes it will show you up as "failed to verify the connection". But it will work atleast functionality-wise it will work.
Apart from this,I have a query on "Have you used any VPN connection to connect collaboration server to create forum connection?"
Hope it works for you.

Hoque

VPN tunnel between 2 RRAS servers, both performing NAT with 2 network connections

I have a need to configure an IPSEC policy between 2 networks. Both servers are located at separate offices, are virtual, are 2008 R2 standard, and only perform the function of NAT between a public IP and the LAN. They each have 1 network
adapter with a public address and 1 adapter with an internal LAN address. I would like to setup an IPSEC policy between these 2 RRAS so that both LAN's can communicate.
My question's; would this be the best method to get this accomplished? If not, what are best practices? Does anyone have documentation for this type of setup?
I can create a policy between 2 servers, each behind each RRAS vm, but I'd like to keep domain controllers, AD, etc. out of this and not exposed - just have RRAS handle it.

What you need to do is look for a guide to site to site VPN which you can follow. There are plenty out there of varying degrees of clarity and accuracy.
The situation briefly is that each site operates normally using its router as a NAT device to provide Internet access for the LAN. In addition, each router is configured to provide a router to router VPN link. Each router has a static route to forward
traffic for the subnet of the other site through the VPN tunnel.
The net result is that a client wanting Internet access uses NAT to give it an Internet connection. If instead the client wants to access the other site, the request is sent through the VPN tunnel. There is no confusion because Internet addresses must be
public and the site addresses are private. This is all transparent to the client because it is all handled by the routers. The client simply sends the packet to the default gateway.
The private traffic between sites is encrypted and encapsulated while it is crossing the Internet. The Internet routers see only the public address on the wrapper. The other site sees only the private IP of the packet after it has been unencapsulated
and decrypted. The two sites behave as if they were linked by an IP router, but the operation is slow because of the delay in getting the packets from site to site.
Sorry about the link. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-sakEbVDQ4
