Improving IPsec Performance with PowerMode IPsec
PowerMode IPsec (PMI) is a mode of operation that provides IPsec performance improvements using Vector Packet Processing and Intel Advanced Encryption Standard New Instructions (AES-NI). PMI utilizes a small software block inside the Packet Forwarding Engine that bypasses flow processing and utilizes the AES-NI instruction set for optimized performance of IPsec processing that gets activated when PMI is enabled.

- Understanding Symmetric Fat Tunnel
PMI Processing
You can enable or disable PMI processing:
- Enable PMI processing by using the
set security flow power-mode-ipsecconfiguration mode command. - Disable PMI processing by using the
delete security flow power-mode-ipsecconfiguration mode command. Executing this command deletes the statement from the configuration.
PMI Statistics
You can verify the PMI statistics by using the show security flow pmi statistics operational mode command.
You can verify the PMI and fat tunnel status by using the show security flow status operational mode command.
Advanced Encryption Standard New Instructions (AES-NI) and Inline Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA)
. AES-NI in PMI mode helps in balancing the load in SPUs and supports the symmetric fat tunnel in SPC3 cards. This results in accelerated traffic-handling performance and higher throughput for IPsec VPN. PMI uses AES-NI for encryption and FPGA for decryption of cryptographic operation.
To enable PMI processing with AES-NI, include the power-mode-ipsec statement at the [edit security flow] hierarchy level.
To enable or disable inline FPGA, include the inline-fpga-crypto (disabled | enabled) statement at the [edit security forwarding-process application-services] hierarchy level.
Supported and Non-Supported Features for PMI
A tunnel session can either be PMI or non-PMI. Table 1 summarizes the supported and non-supported PMI features.
Review the Table 4 section for notes related to your platform.
If a session is configured with any non-supported features listed in Table 1, the session is marked as non-PMI and the tunnel goes into non-PMI mode. Once the tunnel goes into the non-PMI mode, the tunnel does not return to the PMI mode.

Supported Features in PMI |
Non-Supported Features in PMI |
|---|---|
|
Internet Key Exchange (IKE) functionality |

|
NAT (In PMI mode, you cannot use NAT64. NAT64 works properly in normal mode, when PMI is enabled.) |
|
|
AES-GCM-128 and AES-GCM-256 encryption algorithm. We recommend you to use AES-GCM encryption algorithm for optimal performance. |
|
|
AES-CBC-128, AES-CBC-192, and AES-CBC-256 with SHA1 encryption algorithm with HMAC-SHA1-96 authentication algorithm |
|
|
AES-CBC-128, AES-CBC-192, and AES-CBC-256 with SHA2 encryption algorithm with HMAC-SHA-256-128 authentication algorithm |
|
|
NULL encryption algorithm |
|
Note the following usage considerations with PMI:
- Antireplay window size
-
Antireplay window size is 64 packets by default. If you configure fat-tunnel, then it is recommended to increase the Antireplay window size to greater than or equal to 512 packets.
-
- Class of Service (CoS)
- Class of Service(CoS) supports configuration of behavior aggregate (BA) classifier, multifield (MF) classifier, and rewrite-rule functions in PMI.
-
If you enable PMI for a flow session, then the CoS is performed based on a per-flow basis. This means, the first packet of a new flow caches the CoS information in the flow session. Then the subsequent packets of the flow reuse the CoS information cached in the session.
- Encryption algorithm
-
PMI supports the options aes-128-cbc, aes-192-cbc, and aes-256-cbc to improve IPsec performance, along with the existing support in normal mode.
-
- GTP-U
- PMI supports GTP-U scenario with TEID distribution and asymmetric fat tunnel solution.
- PMI supports Software Receive Side Scaling feature.
- LAG and redundant (reth) interfaces
- PMI is supported on link aggregation group (LAG) and redundant Ethernet (reth) interfaces.
- PMI fragmentation check
-
PMI does a pre-fragmentation and post-fragmentation check. If the PMI detects pre-fragmentation and post-fragmentation packets, packets are not allowed through the PMI mode. The packets will return to non-PMI mode.
-
Any fragments received on an interface does not go through PMI.
-
- PMI for NAT-T
- PMI for NAT-T is supported only on SRX5K-SPC3 Services Processing Card (SPC), or with vSRX Virtual Firewall.
- PMI support (vSRX)
-
vSRX Virtual Firewall instances support:
-
Per-flow CoS functions for GTP-U traffic in PMI mode.
-
CoS features in PMI mode. The following CoS features are supported in PMI mode:
-
Classifier
-
Rewrite-rule functions
-
Queuing
-
Shaping
-
Scheduling
-
-
-
Benefits of PMI
Enhances the performance of IPsec.
Configuring Security Flow PMI
The below section describes you how to configure security flow PMI.
To configure security flow PMI, you must enable session cache on IOCs and session affinity:
Enable the session cache on IOCs (IOC2 and IOC3)
user@host# set chassis fpc <fpc-slot> np-cache
Enable VPN session affinity
user@host# set security flow load-distribution session-affinity ipsec
Create security flow in PMI.
user@host#set security flow power-mode-ipsec
Confirm your configuration by entering the
show securitycommand.user@host# show security flow { power-mode-ipsec; }
Understanding Symmetric Fat Tunnel
To improve the throughput of IPsec tunnel, you can use fat tunnel technology.
A new CLI command is introduced to enable the fat IPsec tunnel. The fat IPsec tunnel
feature is disabled by default. The new CLI command introduced is
fat-core in the set security
distribution-profile hierarchy. When you enable the fat-core, the below
configuration is displayed:
security {
distribution-profile {
fat-core;
}
}
Before configuring the fat IPsec tunnel, make sure the following are configured.
-
For fast path forwarding, configure the IOC cache for the session information using the
set chassis fpc FPC slot np-cachecommand. -
To enable session affinity, use the
set security flow load-distribution session-affinity ipseccommand. -
To enable Power mode, use the
set security flow power-mode-ipseccommand.

Example: Configuring Behavior Aggregate Classifier in PMI
This example shows how to configure behavior aggregate(BA) classifiers for a SRX Series Firewall to determine forwarding treatment of packets in PMI.
Requirements
This example uses the following hardware and software components:
SRX Series Firewall.
Junos OS Release 19.1R1 and later releases.
Before you begin:
Determine the forwarding class and PLP that are assigned by default to each well-known DSCP that you want to configure for the behavior aggregate classifier.
Overview
Configure behavior aggregate classifiers to classify the packets
that contain valid DSCPs to appropriate queues. Once configured, you
apply the behavior aggregate classifier to the correct interfaces.
You override the default IP precedence classifier by defining a classifier
and applying it to a logical interface. To define new classifiers
for all code point types, include the classifiers statement
at the [edit class-of-service] hierarchy level.
In this example, set the DSCP behavior aggregate classifier
to ba-classifier as the default DSCP map. Set a best-effort
forwarding class as be-class, an expedited forwarding class
as ef-class, an assured forwarding class as af-class, and a network control forwarding class as nc-class.
Finally, apply the behavior aggregate classifier to the interface
ge-0/0/0.
Table 2 shows how the behavior aggregate classifier assigns loss priorities, to incoming packets in the four forwarding classes.

Example: Configuring Behavior Aggregate Classifier in PMI for vSRX Virtual Firewall Instances
This example shows how to configure behavior aggregate (BA) classifiers for a vSRX Virtual Firewall instance to determine forwarding treatment of packets in PMI.
Requirements
This example uses the following hardware and software components:
-
A vSRX Virtual Firewall instance.
-
Junos OS Release 19.4R1 and later releases.
Before you begin:
-
Determine the forwarding class and PLP that are assigned by default to each well-known DSCP that you want to configure for the BA classifier.
Overview
Configure BA classifiers to classify the packets that contain valid DSCPs to
appropriate queues. Once configured, you apply the BA classifier to the correct
interfaces. You override the default IP precedence classifier by defining a
classifier and applying it to a logical interface. To define new classifiers for
all code point types, include the classifiers statement at the
[edit class-of-service] hierarchy level.
In this example, set the DSCP BA classifier to ba-classifier as
the default DSCP map. Set a best-effort (BE) forwarding class as
be-class, an expedited forwarding (EF) class as
ef-class, an assured forwarding (AF) class as
af-class, and a network control forwarding class as
nc-class. Finally, apply the BA classifier to the interface
ge-0/0/0.

Example: Configuring and Applying a Firewall Filter for a Multifield Classifier in PMI
This example shows how to configure a firewall filter to classify traffic to different forwarding class by using DSCP value and multifield (MF) classifier in PMI.
The classifier detects packets of interest to class of service (CoS) as they arrive on an interface. MF classifiers are used when a simple behavior aggregate (BA) classifier is insufficient to classify a packet, when peering routers do not have CoS bits marked, or the peering router’s marking is untrusted.
Requirements
This example uses the following hardware and software components:
SRX Series Firewall.
Junos OS Release 19.1R1 and later releases.
Before you begin:
Determine the forwarding class that are assigned by default to each well-known DSCP that you want to configure for the MF classifier. See Improving IPsec Performance with PowerMode IPsec.
Overview
This example explain how to configure the firewall filter mf-classifier. To configure the MF classifier, create and name
the assured forwarding traffic class, set the match condition, and
then specify the destination address as 192.168.44.55. Create the
forwarding class for assured forwarding DiffServ traffic as af-class and set the loss priority to low.
In this example, create and name the expedited forwarding traffic
class and set the match condition for the expedited forwarding traffic
class. Specify the destination address as 192.168.66.77. Create the
forwarding class for expedited forwarding DiffServ traffic as ef-class and set the policer to ef-policer. Create
and name the network-control traffic class and set the match condition.
In this example, create and name the forwarding class for the
network control traffic class as nc-class and name the
forwarding class for the best-effort traffic class as be-class. Finally, apply the multifield classifier firewall filter as an
input and output filter on each customer-facing or host-facing that
needs the filter. In this example, the interface for input filter
is ge-0/0/2 and interface for output filter is ge-0/0/4.

Example: Configuring and Applying Rewrite Rules on a Security Device in PMI
This example shows how to configure and apply rewrite rules for a device in PMI.
Requirements
This example uses the following hardware and software components:
SRX Series Firewall.
Junos OS Release 19.1R1 and later releases.
Before you begin:
Create and configure the forwarding classes. See Improving IPsec Performance with PowerMode IPsec.
Overview
This example explains how to configure rewrite rules to replace CoS values on packets received from the customer or host with the values expected by other SRX Series Firewalls. You do not have to configure rewrite rules if the received packets already contain valid CoS values. Rewrite rules apply the forwarding class information and packet loss priority used internally by the device to establish the CoS value on outbound packets. After you configure the rewrite rules, apply them to the correct interfaces.
In this example, configure the rewrite rule for DiffServ CoS
as rewrite-dscps. Specify the best-effort forwarding class
as be-class, expedited forwarding class as ef-class, an assured forwarding class as af-class, and a network
control class as nc-class. Finally, apply the rewrite rule
to the ge-0/0/0 interface.

Procedure
Step-by-Step Procedure
The following example requires you to navigate various levels in the configuration hierarchy. For instructions on how to do that, see Using the CLI Editor in Configuration Mode in the Junos OS CLI User Guide.
To configure and apply Rewrite Rules for a device in PMI:
Configure rewrite rules for DiffServ CoS.
[edit] user@host# edit class-of-service user@host# edit rewrite-rules dscp rewrite-dscps
Configure best-effort forwarding class rewrite rules.
[edit class-of-service rewrite-rules dscp rewrite-dscps] user@host# set forwarding-class be-class loss-priority low code-point 000000 user@host# set forwarding-class be-class loss-priority high code-point 000001
Configure expedited forwarding class rewrite rules.
[edit class-of-service rewrite-rules dscp rewrite-dscps] user@host# set forwarding-class ef-class loss-priority low code-point 101110 user@host# set forwarding-class ef-class loss-priority high code-point 101111
Configure an assured forwarding class rewrite rules.
[edit class-of-service rewrite-rules dscp rewrite-dscps] user@host# set forwarding-class af-class loss-priority low code-point 001010 user@host# set forwarding-class af-class loss-priority high code-point 001100
Configure a network control class rewrite rules.
[edit class-of-service rewrite-rules dscp rewrite-dscps] user@host# set forwarding-class nc-class loss-priority low code-point 110000 user@host# set forwarding-class nc-class loss-priority high code-point 110001
Apply rewrite rules to an interface.
[edit class-of-service] user@host# set interfaces ge-0/0/0 unit 0 rewrite-rules dscp rewrite-dscps
Results
From configuration mode, confirm your configuration
by entering the show class-of-service command. If the output
does not display the intended configuration, repeat the configuration
instructions in this example to correct it.
[edit]
user@host# show class-of-service
interfaces {
ge-0/0/0 {
unit 0 {
rewrite-rules {
dscp rewrite-dscps;
}
}
}
}
rewrite-rules {
dscp rewrite-dscps {
forwarding-class be-class {
loss-priority low code-point 000000;
loss-priority high code-point 000001;
}
forwarding-class ef-class {
loss-priority low code-point 101110;
loss-priority high code-point 101111;
}
forwarding-class af-class {
loss-priority low code-point 001010;
loss-priority high code-point 001100;
}
forwarding-class nc-class {
loss-priority low code-point 110000;
loss-priority high code-point 110001;
}
}
}
If you are done configuring the device, enter commit from configuration mode.
Verification
To confirm that the configuration is working properly, perform these tasks:
Verifying Rewrite Rules Configuration
Purpose
Verify that rewrite rules are configured properly.
Action
From the operational mode, enter the show class-of-service command.
user@host> show class-of-service Physical interface: ge-0/0/0, Index: 130 Maximum usable queues: 8, Queues in use: 4 Scheduled map: <default>, Index:2 Congestion-notification: Disabled LOgical interface: ge0/0/0, Index: 71 Object Name Type Index Classifier ipprec-compatibility ip 13
Meaning
Rewrite rules are configured on ge-0/0/0 interface as expected.
Configure IPsec ESP Authentication-only Mode in PMI
The PMI introduced a new data path for achieving a high IPsec throughput performance. You can use Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) authentication-only mode in PMI mode, which provides authentication, integrity checking, and replay protection without encrypting the data packets.
Before you begin:
Make sure that the session is PMI capable. See VPN Session Affinity .
To configure ESP authentication-only mode:
