Route-Based VPN with IKEv2
Internet Key Exchange version 2 (IKEv2) is an IPsec based tunneling protocol that provides a secure VPN communication channel between peer VPN devices and defines negotiation and authentication for IPsec security associations (SAs) in a protected manner.
Example: Configuring a Route-Based VPN for IKEv2
This example shows how to configure a route-based IPsec VPN to allow data to be securely transferred between a branch office and a corporate office.
Requirements
This example uses the following hardware:
SRX240 device
SSG140 device
Before you begin, read IPsec VPN Overview.
Overview
In this example, you configure a route-based VPN for a branch office in Chicago, Illinois, because you want to conserve tunnel resources but still get granular restrictions on VPN traffic. Users in the Chicago office will use the VPN to connect to their corporate headquarters in Sunnyvale, California.
In this example, you configure interfaces, an IPv4 default route, security zones, and address books. Then you configure IKE Phase 1, IPsec Phase 2, a security policy, and TCP-MSS parameters. See Table 1 through Table 5 for specific configuration parameters used in this example.

Table 5: TCP-MSS Configuration Parameters
Purpose | Configuration Parameters |
|---|---|
TCP-MSS is negotiated as part of the TCP three-way handshake and limits the maximum size of a TCP segment to better fit the MTU limits on a network. For VPN traffic, the IPsec encapsulation overhead, along with the IP and frame overhead, can cause the resulting ESP packet to exceed the MTU of the physical interface, which causes fragmentation. Fragmentation increases bandwidth and device resources. We recommend a value of 1350 as the starting point for most Ethernet-based networks with an MTU of 1500 or greater. You might need to experiment with different TCP-MSS values to obtain optimal performance. For example, you might need to change the value if any device in the path has a lower MTU, or if there is any additional overhead such as PPP or Frame Relay. | MSS value: 1350 |

Verification
Confirm that the configuration is working properly.
Verifying the IKE Phase 1 Status
Purpose
Verify the IKE Phase 1 status.
Action
Before starting the verification process, you need to send traffic from a host in the 192.168.10/24 network to a host in the 192.168.168/24 network. For route-based VPNs, traffic can be initiated by the SRX Series device through the tunnel. We recommend that when testing IPsec tunnels, test traffic be sent from a separate device on one side of the VPN to a second device on the other side of the VPN. For example, initiate a ping from 192.168.10.10 to 192.168.168.10.
From operational mode, enter the show security ike security-associations command. After obtaining an index number from the command, use the show security ike security-associations index index_number detail command.
user@host> show security ike security-associationsIndex Remote Address State Initiator cookie Responder cookie Mode 1 10.2.2.2 UP 744a594d957dd513 1e1307db82f58387 IKEv2

Meaning
The show security ike security-associations command lists all active IKE Phase 1 SAs. If no SAs are listed, there was a problem with Phase 1 establishment. Check the IKE policy parameters and external interface settings in your configuration.
If SAs are listed, review the following information:
Index—This value is unique for each IKE SA, which you can use in the show security ike security-associations index detail command to get more information about the SA.
Remote Address—Verify that the remote IP address is correct.
State
UP—The Phase 1 SA has been established.
DOWN—There was a problem establishing the Phase 1 SA.
Mode—Verify that the correct mode is being used.
Verify that the following are correct in your configuration:
External interfaces (the interface must be the one that receives IKE packets).
IKE policy parameters.
Preshared key information.
Phase 1 proposal parameters (must match on both peers).
The show security ike security-associations index 1 detail command lists additional information about the SA with an index number of 1:
Authentication and encryption algorithms used
Phase 1 lifetime
Traffic statistics (can be used to verify that traffic is flowing properly in both directions)
Role information
Troubleshooting is best performed on the peer using the responder role.
Initiator and responder information
Number of IPsec SAs created
Verifying the IPsec Phase 2 Status
Purpose
Verify the IPsec Phase 2 status.
Action
From operational mode, enter the show security ipsec security-associations command. After obtaining an index number from the command, use the show security ipsec security-associations index index_number detail command.

Meaning
The output from the show security ipsec security-associations command lists the following information:
The ID number is 16384. Use this value with the show security ipsec security-associations index command to get more information about this particular SA.
There is one IPsec SA pair using port 500.
The SPIs, lifetime (in seconds), and usage limits (or lifesize in KB) are shown for both directions. The 3363/ unlim value indicates that the Phase 2 lifetime expires in 3363 seconds, and that no lifesize has been specified, which indicates that it is unlimited. Phase 2 lifetime can differ from Phase 1 lifetime, because Phase 2 is not dependent on Phase 1 after the VPN is up.
The vsys is the root system, and it is always listed as 0.
The IKEv2 allows connections from a version 2 peer and will initiate a version 2 negotiation.
The output from the show security ipsec security-associations index 16384 detail command lists the following information:
The local identity and remote identity make up the proxy ID for the SA.
A proxy ID mismatch is one of the most common causes for a Phase 2 failure. If no IPsec SA is listed, confirm that Phase 2 proposals, including the proxy ID settings, are correct for both peers. For route-based VPNs, the default proxy ID is local=0.0.0.0/0, remote=0.0.0.0/0, and service=any. Issues can occur with multiple route-based VPNs from the same peer IP. In this case, a unique proxy ID for each IPsec SA must be specified. For some third-party vendors, the proxy ID must be manually entered to match.
Another common reason for Phase 2 failure is not specifying the ST interface binding. If IPsec cannot complete, check the kmd log or set trace options.
Reviewing Statistics and Errors for an IPsec Security Association
Purpose
Review ESP and authentication header counters and errors for an IPsec SA.
Action
From operational mode, enter the show security ipsec statistics index index_number command, using the index number of the VPN for which you want to see statistics.
user@host> show security ipsec statistics index
16384ESP Statistics: Encrypted bytes: 920 Decrypted bytes: 6208 Encrypted packets: 5 Decrypted packets: 87 AH Statistics: Input bytes: 0 Output bytes: 0 Input packets: 0 Output packets: 0 Errors: AH authentication failures: 0, Replay errors: 0 ESP authentication failures: 0, ESP decryption failures: 0 Bad headers: 0, Bad trailers: 0
You can also use the show security ipsec statistics command to review statistics and errors for all SAs.
To clear all IPsec statistics, use the clear security ipsec statistics command.
Meaning
If you see packet loss issues across a VPN, you can run the show security ipsec statistics or show security ipsec statistics detail command several times to confirm that the encrypted and decrypted packet counters are incrementing. You should also check that the other error counters are incrementing.
Testing Traffic Flow Across the VPN
Purpose
Verify the traffic flow across the VPN.
Action
You can use the ping command from the SRX Series device to test traffic flow to a remote host PC. Make sure that you specify the source interface so that the route lookup is correct and the appropriate security zones are referenced during policy lookup.
From operational mode, enter the ping command.
ssg-> ping 192.168.168.10 interface ge-0/0/0
count 5PING 192.168.168.10 (192.168.168.10): 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 192.168.168.10: icmp_seq=0 ttl=127 time=8.287 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.168.10: icmp_seq=1 ttl=127 time=4.119 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.168.10: icmp_seq=2 ttl=127 time=5.399 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.168.10: icmp_seq=3 ttl=127 time=4.361 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.168.10: icmp_seq=4 ttl=127 time=5.137 ms --- 192.168.168.10 ping statistics --- 5 packets transmitted, 5 packets received, 0% packet loss round-trip min/avg/max/stddev = 4.119/5.461/8.287/1.490 ms
You can also use the ping command from the SSG Series device.
user@host> ping 192.168.10.10 from ethernet0/6Type escape sequence to abort Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 192.168.10.10, timeout is 1 seconds from ethernet0/6 !!!!! Success Rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip time min/avg/max=4/4/5 ms
Meaning
If the ping command fails from the SRX Series or SSG Series device, there might be a problem with the routing, security policies, end host, or encryption and decryption of ESP packets.

Example: Configuring the SRX Series for Pico Cell Provisioning with IKEv2 Configuration Payload
In networks where many devices are being deployed, managing the network needs to be simple. The IKEv2 configuration payload feature supports the provisioning of these devices without touching either the device configuration or the SRX Series configuration. This example shows how to configure an SRX Series to support pico cell provisioning using the IKEv2 configuration payload feature.
Requirements
This example uses the following hardware and software components:
Two SRX Series devices configured in a chassis cluster
One SRX Series device configured as an intermediate router
Two pico cell clients
One RADIUS server configured with pico cell client provisioning information
Junos OS Release 12.1X46-D10 or later for IKEv2 configuration payload support
Overview
In this example, an SRX Series uses the IKEv2 configuration payload feature to propagate provisioning information to a series of pico cells. The pico cells ship from the factory with a standard configuration that allows them to connect to the SRX Series, but the pico cell provisioning information is stored on an external RADIUS server. The pico cells receive full provisioning information after establishing secure connections with provisioning servers in a protected network. The IKEv2 configuration payload feature is supported for IPv4 only.
Figure 1 shows a topology in which the SRX Series supports pico cell provisioning using the IKEv2 configuration payload feature.
Each pico cell in this topology initiates two IPsec VPNs: one for management and one for data. In this example, management traffic uses the tunnel labeled OAM Tunnel, while the data traffic flows through the tunnel labeled 3GPP Tunnel. Each tunnel supports connections with OAM and 3GPP provisioning servers on separate, configurable networks, requiring separate routing instances and VPNs. This example provides the IKE Phase 1 and Phase 2 options for establishing the OAM and 3GPP VPNs.
In this example, the SRX Series acts as the IKEv2 configuration payload server, acquiring provisioning information from the RADIUS server and providing that information to the pico cell clients. The SRX Series returns the provisioning information for each authorized client in the IKEv2 configuration payload during tunnel negotiation. The SRX Series cannot be used as a client device.
Additionally, the SRX Series uses the IKEv2 configuration payload information to update the Traffic Selector initiator (TSi) and Traffic Selector responder (TSr) values exchanged with the client during tunnel negotiation. The configuration payload uses the TSi and TSr values that are configured on the SRX Series using the proxy-identity statement at the [edit security ipsec vpn vpn-name ike] hierarchy level. The TSi and TSr values define the network traffic for each VPN.
The intermediate router routes pico cell traffic to the appropriate interfaces on the SRX Series.
The following process describes the connection sequence:
- The pico cell initiates an IPsec tunnel with the SRX Series using the factory configuration.
- The SRX Series authenticates the client using the client certificate information and the root certificate of the CA that is enrolled in the SRX Series. After authentication, the SRX Series passes the IKE identity information from the client certificate to the RADIUS server in an authorization request.
- After authorizing the client, the RADIUS server responds
to the SRX Series with the client provisioning information:
IP address (TSi value)
IP subnet mask (optional; the default is 32 bit)
DNS address (optional)
- The SRX Series returns the provisioning information in
the IKEv2 configuration payload for each client connection, and exchanges
final TSi and TSr values with the pico cells. In this example, the
SRX Series provides the following TSi and TSr information for each
VPN:
VPN Connection
TSi/TSr Values Provided by SRX
Pico 1 OAM
TSi: 12.12.1.201/32, TSr: 192.168.2.0/24
Pico 1 3GPP
TSi: 13.13.1.201/32, TSr: 192.169.2.0/24, TSr: 13.13.0.0/16
Pico 2 OAM
TSi: 12.12.1.205/32, TSr: 192.168.2.0/24
Pico 2 3GPP
TSi: 13.13.1.205/32, TSr: 192.169.2.0/24, TSr: 13.13.0.0/16
If the provisioning information supplied by the RADIUS server includes a subnet mask, the SRX Series returns a second TSr value for the client connection that includes the IP subnet. This enables intrapeer communication for devices on that subnet. In this example, intrapeer communication is enabled for the subnet associated with the 3GPP VPN (13.13.0.0/16).
The IKEv2 configuration payload feature is supported only for point-to-multipoint secure tunnel (st0) interfaces. For point-to-multipoint interfaces, the interfaces must be numbered, and the addresses provided in the configuration payload must be within the subnetwork range of the associated point-to-multipoint interface.

Configuring the Pico Cell (Sample Configuration)
Step-by-Step Procedure
The pico cell information in this example is provided for reference. Detailed pico cell configuration information is beyond the scope of this document. The pico cell factory configuration must include the following information:
Local certificate (X.509v3) and IKE identity information
Traffic Selector (TSi, TSr) values set to any/any (0.0.0.0/0)
SRX Series IKE identity information and public IP address
Phase 1 and Phase 2 proposals that match the SRX Series configuration
The pico cells in this example use strongSwan open source software for IPsec-based VPN connections. This information is used by the SRX Series for pico cell provisioning using the IKEv2 configuration payload feature. In networks where many devices are being deployed, the pico cell configuration can be identical except for the certificate (leftcert) and identity (leftid) information. The following sample configurations illustrate factory settings.
- Review the Pico 1 configuration:

Configuring the RADIUS Server (Sample Configuration using a FreeRADIUS)
Step-by-Step Procedure
The RADIUS server information in this example is provided for reference. Complete RADIUS server configuration information is beyond the scope of this document. The following information is returned to the SRX Series by the RADIUS server:
Framed-IP-Address
Framed-IP-Netmask (optional)
Primary-DNS and Secondary-DNS (optional)
In this example, the RADIUS server has separate provisioning information for the OAM and 3GPP connections. The User-Name is taken from the client certificate information provided in the SRX Series authorization request.
If the RADIUS server acquires client provisioning information from a DHCP server, the client identity information relayed to the DHCP server by the RADIUS server must be consistent with the client IKE identity information relayed to the RADIUS server by the SRX Series device. This ensures the continuity of the client identity across the various protocols.
The communication channel between the SRX Series device and the RADIUS server is protected by a RADIUS shared secret.
- Review the RADIUS configuration for the Pico 1 OAM VPN.
The RADIUS server has the following information:
Sample RADIUS configuration earlier to Junos OS Releases 17.3R3, 17.4R2, 18.1R3, 18.2R2, 18.3R1, and 18.1R3-S2:

DEFAULT User-Name =~ "device@example.net", Cleartext-Password := "juniper" Service-Type = Framed-User, Framed-IP-Address = 12.12.1.201, Framed-IP-Netmask = 255.255.255.255, Primary-Dns = 192.168.2.104, Secondary-Dns = 192.168.2.106,Sample RADIUS configuration starting from Junos OS Releases 17.3R3, 17.4R2, 18.1R3, 18.2R2, 18.3R1, and 18.1R3-S2:
FreeRADIUS configuration example:
DEFAULT User-Name =~ "device@example.net", Auth-Type := "Accept" Service-Type = Framed-User, Framed-IP-Address = 12.12.1.201, Framed-IP-Netmask = 255.255.255.255, Primary-Dns = 192.168.2.104, Secondary-Dns = 192.168.2.106,In this case, the RADIUS server provides the default subnet mask (255.255.255.255), which blocks intrapeer traffic.
- Review the RADIUS configuration for the Pico 1 3GPP VPN.
The RADIUS server has the following information:
Sample RADIUS configuration earlier to Junos OS Release 17.3R4, 17.4R2, 18.1R3, 18.2R2, 18.3R1, and 18.1R2-S3:
FreeRADIUS configuration example:
DEFAULT User-Name =~ "device@example.net", Cleartext-Password := "juniper" Service-Type = Framed-User, Framed-IP-Address = 13.13.1.201.10, Framed-IP-Netmask = 255.255.0.0, Primary-Dns = 192.168.2.104, Secondary-Dns = 192.168.2.106,Sample RADIUS configuration starting from Junos OS Release 17.3R4, 17.4R2, 18.1R3, 18.2R2, 18.3R1, and 18.1R2-S3:
FreeRADIUS configuration example:
DEFAULT User-Name =~ "device@example.net", Auth-Type := "Accept" Service-Type = Framed-User, Framed-IP-Address = 13.13.1.201.10, Framed-IP-Netmask = 255.255.0.0, Primary-Dns = 192.168.2.104, Secondary-Dns = 192.168.2.106,In this case, the RADIUS server provides a subnet mask value (255.255.0.0), which enables intrapeer traffic.
The clear-text password is hard-coded and is not configurable. Additionally, this example creates two tunnels from the same client certificate by using different parts of the certificate for User-Name (IKE identity) information.
Verification
Confirm that the configuration is working properly.
Verifying the IKE Phase 1 Status for the SRX Series
Purpose

Meaning
The show security ike security-associations command lists all active IKE Phase 1 SAs with pico cells devices. If no SAs are listed, there was a problem with Phase 1 establishment. Check the IKE policy parameters and external interface settings in your configuration. This example shows only the IKE Phase 1 SA for the OAM VPN; however, a separate IKE Phase 1 SA will be displayed showing the IKE Phase 1 parameters for the 3GPP VPN.
If SAs are listed, review the following information:
Index—This value is unique for each IKE SA: you can use the show security ike security-associations index detail command to get more information about the SA.
Remote address—Verify that the local IP address is correct and that port 500 is being used for peer-to-peer communication.
Role responder state:
Up—The Phase 1 SA has been established.
Down—There was a problem establishing the Phase 1 SA.
Peer (remote) IKE ID—Verify the certificate information is correct.
Local identity and remote identity—Verify these addresses are correct.
Mode—Verify that the correct mode is being used.
Verify that the following items are correct in your configuration:
External interfaces (the interface must be the one that sends IKE packets)
IKE policy parameters
Phase 1 proposal parameters (must match between peers)
The show security ike security-associations command lists the following additional information about security associations:
Authentication and encryption algorithms used
Phase 1 lifetime
Traffic statistics (can be used to verify that traffic is flowing properly in both directions)
Role information
Troubleshooting is best performed on the peer using the responder role.
Initiator and responder information
Number of IPsec SAs created
Number of Phase 2 negotiations in progress
Verifying IPsec Security Associations for the SRX Series
Purpose
Verify the IPsec status.

Meaning
This examples shows the active IKE Phase 2 SAs for Pico 1. If no SAs are listed, there was a problem with Phase 2 establishment. Check the IPsec policy parameters in your configuration. For each Phase 2 SA (OAM and 3GPP), information is provided in both the inbound and outboard direction. The output from the show security ipsec security-associations command lists the following information:
The remote gateway has an IP address of 1.1.1.1.
The SPIs, lifetime (in seconds), and usage limits (or lifesize in KB) are shown for both directions. The 3529/ value indicates that the Phase 2 lifetime expires in 3529 seconds, and that no lifesize has been specified, which indicates that it is unlimited. The Phase 2 lifetime can differ from the Phase 1 lifetime, because Phase 2 is not dependent on Phase 1 after the VPN is up.
VPN monitoring is not enabled for this SA, as indicated by a hyphen in the Mon column. If VPN monitoring is enabled, U indicates that monitoring is up, and D indicates that monitoring is down.
The virtual system (vsys) is the root system, and it always lists 0.
The above output from the show security ipsec security-associations index index_id detail command lists the following information:
The local identity and remote identity make up the proxy ID for the SA.
A proxy ID mismatch is one of the most common causes for a Phase 2 failure. If no IPsec SA is listed, confirm that Phase 2 proposals, including the proxy ID settings, are correct for both peers. For route-based VPNs, the default proxy ID is local=0.0.0.0/0, remote=0.0.0.0/0, and service=any. Issues can occur with multiple route-based VPNs from the same peer IP. In this case, a unique proxy ID for each IPsec SA must be specified. For some third-party vendors, the proxy ID must be manually entered to match.
Authentication and encryption algorithms used.
Phase 2 proposal parameters (must match between peers).
Secure tunnel (st0.0 and st0.1) bindings to the OAM and 3GPP gateways.
IKE Policy with a Trusted CA
This example shows how to bind a trusted CA server to an IKE policy of the peer.
Before you begin, you must have a list of all the trusted CAs you want to associate with the IKE policy of the peer.
You can associate an IKE policy to a single trusted CA profile or a trusted CA group. For establishing a secure connection, the IKE gateway uses the IKE policy to limit itself to the configured group of CAs (ca-profiles) while validating the certificate. A certificate issued by any source other than the trusted CA or trusted CA group is not validated. If there is a certificate validation request coming from an IKE policy then the associated CA profile of the IKE policy will validate the certificate. If an IKE policy is not associated with any CA then by default the certificate is validated by any one of the configured CA profiles.
In this example, a CA profile named root-ca is created and a root-ca-identity is associated to the profile.
You can configure a maximum of 20 CA profiles that you want to add to a trusted CA group. You cannot commit your configuration if you configure more than 20 CA profiles in a trusted CA group.
- Create a CA profile and associate a CA identifier to the
profile.[edit]user@host# set security pki ca-profile root-ca ca-identity root-ca
- Define an IKE proposal and the IKE proposal authentication
method.[edit]user@host# set security ike proposal ike_prop authentication-method rsa-signatures
- Define the Diffie-Hellman group, authentication algorithm,
an encryption algorithm for the IKE proposal.[edit]user@host# set security ike proposal ike_prop dh-group group2user@host# set security ike proposal ike_prop authentication-algorithm sha-256user@host# set security ike proposal ike_prop encryption-algorithm aes-256-cbc
- Configure an IKE policy and associate the policy with
the IKE proposal.[edit]user@host# set security ike policy ike_policy proposals ike_prop
- Configure a local certificate identifier for the IKE policy.[edit]user@host# set security ike policy ike_policy certificate local-certificate SPOKE
- Define the CA to be used for the IKE policy.[edit]user@host# set security ike policy ike_policy certificate trusted-ca ca-profile root-ca
To view the CA profiles and the trusted CA groups configured on your device, run show security pki command.
user@host# show security ike
proposal ike_prop {
authentication-method rsa-signatures;
dh-group group2;
authentication-algorithm sha-256;
encryption-algorithm aes-256-cbc;
}
policy ike_policy {
proposals ike_prop;
certificate {
local-certificate SPOKE;
trusted-ca ca-profile root-ca;
}
}
The show security ike command displays the CA profile group under the IKE policy named ike_policy and the certificate associated with the IKE policy.
