Description

This example demonstrates how to configure a Site-to-Site IPSec VPN with Strongswan and SSL certificates. The example was tested and verified using Fedora VMs in GNS3.

Install

Install the strongswan package from fedora package repository. 

dnf install -y strongswan

Configuration

Network

Configure a network interface for the WAN connection between VPNs and a network interface for the LAN host network.

VPN-Site-1

nmcli connection add ifname ens4 connection.id wan connection.type 802-3-ethernet mtu 1460 ipv4.method manual ipv4.address 100.64.20.1/30
nmcli connection add ifname ens5 connection.id lan connection.type 802-3-ethernet ipv4.method manual ipv4.address 192.168.80.1/24 mtu 1460

VPN-Site-2

nmcli connection add ifname ens4 connection.id wan connection.type 802-3-ethernet mtu 1460 ipv4.method manual ipv4.address 100.64.20.2/30
nmcli connection add ifname ens5 connection.id lan connection.type 802-3-ethernet ipv4.method manual ipv4.address 192.168.90.1/24 mtu 1460

Certificates

  1. Generate and sign certificates and private keys for both VPN sites.

  2. Copy the CA certificate, VPN certificate, and private key. 

    cp <ca_cert> /etc/strongswan/ipsec.d/cacerts/
cp <vpn_cert> /etc/strongswan/ipsec.d/certs/
cp <vpn_key> /etc/strongswan/ipsec.d/private/
