VPN over GRE (not GRE over VPN)

Netvanta 3430 - Enhanced at all locations

Layout:

central location - we'll call it #1  172.16.1

remote location - #2 172.16.2

remote location - #3 172.16.3

I can setup a VPN link (using the GUI) between location #1 and #2

When setting up the VPN between locations #1 and #3 - the connection fails with various errors:

CRYPTO_IKE.NEGOTIATION IkePrepIsakmpKeyMat: IkeGetPreSharedKey failed

CRYPTO_IKE.NEGOTIATION IkeMMConstructIDMsg: IkePrepareIsakmpKeyMat failed

CRYPTO_IKE.NEGOTIATION IkeKEWaitProcess: IkeMMConstructIDMsg failed

CRYPTO_IKE.NEGOTIATION IkeProcessData : IkeKEWaitProcess failed

I have tried changing the various options - but to no avail...

I am hoping that I can establish a GRE tunnel to this site - ( I will test this onsite later this week)

So now the question is how can I establish a "VPN" from Site #1 to #3 - and have the traffic route correctly.

I have tested a GRE tunnel (from #1 to my house) and can get it established - with a separate IP address subnet on the GRE tunnel - and can ping the two sides of the tunnel, but I cannot route traffic across the GRE  between the private LANs; I am assuming this is some sort of firewall issue - if this could work this would be fine (I understand the lack of security issue)...

But ideally having a secure connection would be best - so assuming that GRE can be established, can I create a VPN over the GRE and have it behave just like the already established VPN?

Or is there another way to solve this problem?

Re: VPN over GRE (not GRE over VPN)

Did you put an access policy on your GRE interface permitting traffic through the firewall?  Once FW is enabled on an AOS device, it applies across all interfaces.  You need separate policies to make sure your traffic gets through the interfaces. 

Are your routers all running the same version of firmware?

Can you attach a sample of your config?

Re: VPN over GRE (not GRE over VPN)

Thanks for the reply

Unfortunately I a GUI handicapped - so I do need help putting down the access policy for the GRE interface since this isn't easily implemented through the GUI. 

Here is the config as requested (Homebase - central location):

! ADTRAN, Inc. OS version R10.6.0.E

Again what I need to do is get subnets 172.16.1.x connected/routing to 172.16.3.x (172.16.2.x works via the VPN put in place by the wizard).

Thanks,

Paul

Re: VPN over GRE (not GRE over VPN)

Apologies for a slow response to your reply.

If I understand correctly... 

IPSec VPN is up - Site 1 to Site 2.

IPSec VPN will not work - Site 1 to Site 3

As an alternative, you wish to use a GRE tunnel - Site 1 to Site 3. 

Your GRE tunnel config looks correct and since you are anchoring to your WAN port, which is firewalled, you may need to allow GRE through the public access policy.  You have the ACL for that but I see that it is applied as a NAT destination in the public policy, which means you are forwarding any GRE packets to 172.16.1.4.  I believe you want it configured like this:

ip policy-class Public

allow reverse list VPN-20-vpn-selectors stateless

  allow list wizard-remote-access self

allow list web-acl-13 self

  nat destination list web-acl-7 address 172.16.1.4 port 3389

  nat destination list web-acl-8 address 172.16.1.3 port 3389

  nat destination list web-acl-10 address 172.16.1.1 port 3389

  nat destination list web-acl-11 address 172.16.1.2 port 3389

Also, once your GRE tunnel comes up, you will just need a route for the 3 network.  Right now I see that route is "ip route 172.16.3.0 255.255.255.0 172.16.1.30" but if the 3 network is on the other side of the GRE tunnel then the route should be "ip route 172.16.3.0 255.255.255.0 172.16.0.2".

If I am understanding your needs correctly, then I believe this change in your configuration should work.
