How do I create a crypto map in IKEv2?

Create a crypto map and match based on the previously created ACL. Configure the peer IP address. Assign the previously created proposal. Apply the crypto map to an interface. Create and enter IKEv2 policy configuration mode. Configure an encryption method. Configure a hash method.

What is the IKEv2 key management protocol?

IKEv2, a next-generation key management protocol based on RFC 4306, is an enhancement of the IKE protocol. IKEv2 supports crypto map-and tunnel protection-based crypto interfaces.

How do I enable IPsec IPsec IKEv2?

To enable IPsec IKEv2, you must configure the IKEv2 settings on the ASA and also configure IKEv2 as the primary protocol in the client profile. The IKEv2enabled profile must be deployed to the endpoint computer, otherwise the client attempts to connect using SSL.

How do I set up an IKEv2 profile?

An IKEv2 profile must be configured and must be attached to either a crypto map or an IPSec profile on both the IKEv2 initiator and responder. Use the command set ikev2-profile profile-name to attach the profile.

Does AnyConnect support IKEv2?

Even in the IKEv2 configuration, when AnyConnect connects to the ASA, it downloads profile and binary updates over SSL, but not IPsec. The AnyConnect connection over IKEv2 to the ASA uses EAP-AnyConnect, a proprietary mechanism that allows simpler implementation.

Does AnyConnect use Ike?

Each of those products only supported their own protocol however with the introduction of Anyconnect Secure Mobility Client 3.0, the client can now use IPsec (IKEv2) or SSL for the transport of the VPN connection.

Can AnyConnect use IPsec?

Yes you are right.

Which requirement is needed to use local authentication for Cisco AnyConnect secure mobility clients that connect to a Flexvpn server?

Cisco AnyConnect Secure Mobility Client requires that the server authenticate itself using a certificate (rsa-sig). The router must have a web server certificate (that is, a certificate with 'server authentication' within the extended key usage extension) from a trusted certificate authority (CA).

How do I configure AnyConnect?

5 Steps to Configure Cisco AnyConnect VPNConfigure AAA authentication. The first thing to configure is AAA authentication. ... Define VPN protocols. When users connect their VPN, they'll need an IP address for the VPN session. ... Configure tunnel groups. ... Set group policies. ... Apply the configuration. ... Authenticating logic flow.

What type of VPN is AnyConnect?

Cisco AnyConnect VPNs utilize TLS to authenticate and configure routing, then DTLS to efficiently encrypt and transport the tunneled VPN traffic, and can fall back to TLS-based transport where firewalls block UDP-based traffic.

Is AnyConnect IPsec or SSL?

Anyconnect is the replacement for the old Cisco VPN client and supports SSL and IKEv2 IPsec. When it comes to SSL, the ASA offers two SSL VPN modes: Clientless WebVPN.

Is AnyConnect a VPN?

Cisco AnyConnect Client helps us to make secure , safe and reliable VPN connection to our organization's private network with multiple security services to safe and protect company's data. It gives freedom to employees to get connected from anywhere anytime, thus making life easier for remote workers.

How does remote access VPN Work?

A remote access VPN works by creating a virtual tunnel between an employee's device and the company's network. This tunnel goes through the public internet but the data sent back and forth through it is protected by encryption and security protocols to help keep it private and secure.

What is Cisco Flex VPN?

FlexVPN is Cisco's implementation of the IKEv2 standard featuring a unified paradigm and CLI that combines site to site, remote access, hub and spoke topologies and partial meshes (spoke to spoke direct).

What is a certificate referenced by trustpoints?

Certificates that are referenced by trustpoints need several bits to make them valid on a given device. The certificate itself is just one of those bits. You also need the private key that was used to generate the Certificate Signing Request (CSR). Without that, the certificate is invalid.

What is the other bit in a certificate chain?

The other bits are any intermediate certificates in the chain between the public trusted root CA and the signing CA. That's also known as the certificate chain and is us ally available from the public CA's web site in various formats.

Can you use a certificate with a private key?

You can only use the certificate associated with your ASA's private key. It is also the certificate which has your ASA's FQDN as the Common Name (CN). That's what makes the whole chain of trust concept work.

Can you look at a crypto certificate?

You can look at the certificate with "show crypto ca certificate". But anyhow, if you export it on the old ASA and import it on the new one, it will have the same "trust-status" as before.

What is IKEv2 session?

The IKEv2 session is completed by the ASA, final configuration (configuration reply with values such as an assigned IP address), transform sets, and traffic selectors are pushed to the VPN client.

Does Windows client need to trust CA?

In order to trust the certificate presented by the ASA, the Windows client needs to trust its CA. That CA certificate should be added to the computer certificate store (not the user store). The Windows client uses the computer store in order to validate the IKEv2 certificate.

Does IKEv2 support split tunnel?

The native Windows IKEv2 client does not support split tunnel (there are no CONF REPLY attributes which could be accepted by the Windows 7 client), so the only possible policy with the Microsoft client is to tunnel all traffic (0/0 traffic selectors).

How to enable IKEv2?

To enable IKEv2 on a crypto interface, attach an IKEv2 profile to the crypto map or IPsec profile applied to the interface.

What is IKEv2 client?

Microsoft Windows 7 IKEv2 client sends IP address as IKE identity that prevents Cisco IOS IKEv2 RA server from segregating remote users based on IKE identity. To allow the Windows 7 IKEv2 client to send email address (user@domain) as IKE identity, apply the hotfix documented in KB675488 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/975488 on Microsoft Windows 7 and specify the email address string in either the user name field when prompted or the CommonName field in the certificate depending on the authentication method.

What is the name mangler in IKEv2?

Perform this task to specify the IKEv2 name mangler, which is used to derive a name for the authorization requests. The name is derived from specified portions of different forms of remote IKE identities or the EAP identity. The name mangler specified here is referred to in the IKEv2 profile.

What is an IKEv2 keyring?

An IKEv2 keyring is a repository of symmetric and asymmetric preshared keys and is independent of the IKEv1 keyring. The IKEv2 keyring is associated with an IKEv2 profile and hence, caters to a set of peers that match the IKEv2 profile. The IKEv2 keyring gets its VRF context from the associated IKEv2 profile.

How to disable NAT-T encapsulation?

Similar, to IKEv1, NAT-T is auto detected. To disable NAT-T encapsulation, use the no crypto ipsec nat-transparency udp-encapsulation command.

What happens after you create an IKEv2 proposal?

After you create the IKEv2 proposal, the proposal must be attached to a policy to pick the proposal for negotiation. For information on completing this task, see the Configuring the IKEv2 Policy section.

What is IKEv2 RA?

The IKEv2 RA server supports user and group authorizations. You can configure user authorizations, group authorizations, both, or none. The username for the user and group authorizations can be directly specified or derived from the peer IKEv2 identity using a name mangler. Group authorization can be local and external-AAA based, while user authorization can only be external-AAA based. The IKEv2 authorization policy serves as a container of IKEv2 local AAA group authorization parameters.

Configuring IKEv2 keyring

An IKEv2 keyring is a repository of symmetric and asymmetric preshared keys and is independent of the IKEv1 key ring. The IKEv2 keyring is associated with an IKEv2 profile and hence supports a set of peers that match the IKEv2 profile. The IKEv2 key ring gets its VPN routing and forwarding (VRF) context from the associated IKEv2 profile.

Configuring IKEv2 proposal

KEv2 proposal is a collection of transforms used in the negotiation of Internet Key Exchange (IKE) security associations (SAs) as part of the IKE_SA_INIT exchange. The transform types used in the negotiation are as follows:

IKEv2 Policy

An IKEv2 policy contains proposals that are used to negotiate the encryption, integrity, PRF algorithms, and DH group in the IKE_SA_INIT exchange. It can have match statements, which are used as selection criteria to select a policy during negotiation.

Configuring IKEv2 Profile

An IKEv2 profile is a repository of nonnegotiable parameters of the IKE SA, such as local or remote identities and authentication methods and services that are available to authenticated peers that match the profile. An IKEv2 profile must be attached to either a crypto map or an IPSec profile on the initiator.

IPsec transform set

A Transform Set is used to define how the data traffic between IPSec peers is going to be operated and protected.

Crypto Map

Crypto Maps are used to connect all the pieces of IPSec configuration together. A Crypto Map consists of one or more entries as an ACL, Transform Set, Remote Peer, the lifetime of the data connections etc
