Dynamic Multipoint VPN
The Dynamic Multipoint VPN (DMVPN) feature allows users to better scale large and small IP Security (IPsec) Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) by combining generic routing encapsulation (GRE) tunnels, IPsec encryption, and Next Hop Resolution Protocol (NHRP).
Note | Security threats, as well as the cryptographic technologies to help protect against them, are constantly changing. For more information about the latest Cisco cryptographic recommendations, see the Next Generation Encryption (NGE) white paper. |

Prerequisites for Dynamic Multipoint VPN (DMVPN)
Before a multipoint GRE (mGRE) and IPsec tunnel can be established, you must define an Internet Key Exchange (IKE) policy by using the crypto isakmp policy command.
For the NAT-Transparency Aware enhancement to work, you must use IPsec transport mode on the transform set. Also, even though NAT-Transparency can support two peers (IKE and IPsec) being translated to the same IP address (using the User Datagram Protocol [UDP] ports to differentiate them [that is, Peer Address Translation (PAT)]), this functionality is not supported for DMVPN. All DMVPN spokes must have a unique IP address after they have been NAT translated. They can have the same IP address before they are NAT translated.
To enable 2547oDMPVN--Traffic Segmentation Within DMVPN you must configure multiprotocol label switching (MPLS) by using the mpls ip command.
Restrictions for Dynamic Multipoint VPN (DMVPN)
If you use the Dynamic Creation for Spoke-to-Spoke Tunnels benefit of this feature, you must use IKE certificates or wildcard preshared keys for Internet Security Association Key Management Protocol (ISAKMP) authentication.
Note | It is highly recommended that you do not use wildcard preshared keys because the attacker will have access to the VPN if one spoke router is compromised. |
GRE tunnel keepalives (that is, the keepalive command under a GRE interface) are not supported on point-to-point or multipoint GRE tunnels in a DMVPN Network.
For best DMVPN functionality, it is recommended that you run the latest Cisco IOS software Release 12.4 mainline,12.4T, or 12.2(18)SXF.
If one spoke is behind one NAT device and another different spoke is behind another NAT device, and Peer Address Translation (PAT) is the type of NAT used on both NAT devices, then a session initiated between the two spokes cannot be established.
One example of a PAT configuration on a NAT interface is:
ip nat inside source list nat_acl interface FastEthernet0/1 overload
DMVPN Support on the Cisco 6500 and Cisco 7600
Blade-to-Blade Switchover on the Cisco 6500 and Cisco 7600
DMVPN does not support blade-to-blade switchover on the Cisco 6500 and Cisco 7600.
Cisco 6500 or Cisco 7600 As a DMVPN Hub
A Cisco 6500 or Cisco 7600 that is functioning as a DMVPN hub cannot be located behind a NAT router.
If a Cisco 6500 or Cisco 7600 is functioning as a DMVPN hub, the spoke behind NAT must be a Cisco 6500 or Cisco 7600, respectively, or the router must be upgraded to Cisco IOS software Release 12.3(11)T02 or a later release.
Cisco 6500 or Cisco 7600 As a DMVPN Spoke
If a Cisco 6500 or Cisco 7600 is functioning as a spoke, the hub cannot be behind NAT.
If a Cisco 6500 or Cisco 7600 is functioning as a DMVPN spoke behind NAT, the hub must be a Cisco 6500 or Cisco 7600, respectively, or the router must be upgraded to Cisco IOS Release 12.3(11)T02 or a later release.
DMVPN Hub or Spoke Supervisor Engine
Only a Supervisor Engine 720 can be used as a DMVPN hub or spoke. A Supervisor Engine 2 cannot be used.
Encrypted Multicast with GRE
Encrypted Multicast with GRE is not supported on the Cisco 6500 nor on the Cisco 7600.
mGRE Interfaces
If there are two mGRE interfaces on the same DMVPN node and they both do not have a tunnel key, the two mGRE interfaces must each have a unique tunnel source address (or interface) configured.
On the Cisco 6500 and Cisco 7600, each GRE interface (multipoint or point-to-point) must have a unique tunnel source address (or interface).
The following commands are not supported under mGRE with DMVPN: ip tcp adjust-mss, qos pre-classify tunnel vrf, tunnel path-mtu-discovery, and tunnel vrf.
Quality of Service (QoS)
You cannot use QoS for DMVPN packets on a Cisco 6500 or Cisco 7600.
Tunnel Key
The use of a tunnel key on a GRE (multipoint or point-to-point) interface is not supported in the hardware switching ASICs on the Cisco 6500 and Cisco 7600 platforms. If a tunnel key is configured, throughput performance is greatly reduced.
In Cisco IOS Release 12.3(11)T3 and Release 12.3(14)T, the requirement that a mGRE interface must have a tunnel key was removed. Therefore, in a DMVPN network that includes a Cisco 6500 or Cisco 7600 as a DMVPN node, you should remove the tunnel key from all DMVPN nodes in the DMVPN network, thus preserving the throughput performance on the Cisco 6500 and Cisco 7600 platforms.
If the tunnel key is not configured on any DMVPN node within a DMVPN network, it must not be configured on all DMVPN nodes with the DMVPN network.
VRF-Aware DMVPN Scenarios
The mls mpls tunnel-recircommand must be configured on the provider equipment (PE) DMVPN hub if customer equipment (CE) DMVPN spokes need to “talk” to other CEs across the MPLS cloud.
The mGRE interface should be configured with a large enough IP maximum transmission unit (1400 packets to avoid having the route processor doing fragmentation.
Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) should be avoided.

Benefits of Dynamic Multipoint VPN (DMVPN)
Hub Router Configuration Reduction
Currently, for each spoke router, there is a separate block of configuration lines on the hub router that define the crypto map characteristics, the crypto access list, and the GRE tunnel interface. This feature allows users to configure a single mGRE tunnel interface, a single IPsec profile, and no crypto access lists on the hub router to handle all spoke routers. Thus, the size of the configuration on the hub router remains constant even if spoke routers are added to the network.
DMVPN architecture can group many spokes into a single multipoint GRE interface, removing the need for a distinct physical or logical interface for each spoke in a native IPsec installation.
Automatic IPsec Encryption Initiation
GRE has the peer source and destination address configured or resolved with NHRP. Thus, this feature allows IPsec to be immediately triggered for the point-to-point GRE tunneling or when the GRE peer address is resolved via NHRP for the multipoint GRE tunnel.
Support for Dynamically Addressed Spoke Routers
When using point-to-point GRE and IPsec hub-and-spoke VPN networks, the physical interface IP address of the spoke routers must be known when configuring the hub router because IP address must be configured as the GRE tunnel destination address. This feature allows spoke routers to have dynamic physical interface IP addresses (common for cable and DSL connections). When the spoke router comes online, it will send registration packets to the hub router: within these registration packets, is the current physical interface IP address of this spoke.
Dynamic Creation for Spoke-to-Spoke Tunnels
This feature eliminates the need for spoke-to-spoke configuration for direct tunnels. When a spoke router wants to transmit a packet to another spoke router, it can now use NHRP to dynamically determine the required destination address of the target spoke router. (The hub router acts as the NHRP server, handling the request for the source spoke router.) The two spoke routers dynamically create an IPsec tunnel between them so data can be directly transferred.
VRF Integrated DMVPN
DMVPNs can be used to extend the Multiprotocol Label Switching (MPLS) networks that are deployed by service providers to take advantage of the ease of configuration of hub and spokes, to provide support for dynamically addressed customer premises equipment (CPEs), and to provide zero-touch provisioning for adding new spokes into a DMVPN.
Feature Design of Dynamic Multipoint VPN (DMVPN)
The Dynamic Multipoint VPN (DMVPN) feature combines GRE tunnels, IPsec encryption, and NHRP routing to provide users an ease of configuration via crypto profiles--which override the requirement for defining static crypto maps--and dynamic discovery of tunnel endpoints.
This feature relies on the following two Cisco enhanced standard technologies:
NHRP--A client and server protocol where the hub is the server and the spokes are the clients. The hub maintains an NHRP database of the public interface addresses of the each spoke. Each spoke registers its real address when it boots and queries the NHRP database for real addresses of the destination spokes to build direct tunnels.
mGRE Tunnel Interface --Allows a single GRE interface to support multiple IPsec tunnels and simplifies the size and complexity of the configuration.
The topology shown in the diagram below and the corresponding bullets explain how this feature works.
Each spoke has a permanent IPsec tunnel to the hub, not to the other spokes within the network. Each spoke registers as clients of the NHRP server.
When a spoke needs to send a packet to a destination (private) subnet on another spoke, it queries the NHRP server for the real (outside) address of the destination (target) spoke.
After the originating spoke “learns” the peer address of the target spoke, it can initiate a dynamic IPsec tunnel to the target spoke.
The spoke-to-spoke tunnel is built over the multipoint GRE interface.
The spoke-to-spoke links are established on demand whenever there is traffic between the spokes. Thereafter, packets can bypass the hub and use the spoke-to-spoke tunnel.
Note | After a preconfigured amount of inactivity on the spoke-to-spoke tunnels, the router will tear down those tunnels to save resources (IPsec security associations [SAs]). |
IPsec Profiles
IPsec profiles abstract IPsec policy information into a single configuration entity, which can be referenced by name from other parts of the configuration. Therefore, users can configure functionality such as GRE tunnel protection with a single line of configuration. By referencing an IPsec profile, the user does not have to configure an entire crypto map configuration. An IPsec profile contains only IPsec information; that is, it does not contain any access list information or peering information.
VRF Integrated DMVPN
VPN Routing and Forwarding (VRF) Integrated DMVPN enables users to map DMVPN multipoint interfaces into MPLS VPNs. This mapping allows Internet service providers (ISPs) to extend their existing MPLS VPN services by mapping off-network sites (typically a branch office) to their respective MPLS VPNs. Customer equipment (CE) routers are terminated on the DMVPN PE router, and traffic is placed in the VRF instance of an MPLS VPN.
DMVPN can interact with MPLS VPNs in two ways:
The ip vrf forwarding command is used to inject the data IP packets (those packets inside the mGRE+IPsec tunnel) into the MPLS VPN. The ip vrf forwarding command is supported for DMVPN in Cisco IOS Release 12.3(6) and Release 12.3(7)T.
The tunnel vrf command is used to transport (route) the mGRE+IPsec tunnel packet itself within an MPLS VPN. The tunnel vrf command is supported in Cisco IOS Release 12.3(11)T but not in Cisco IOS Release 12.2(18)SXE.
Note | Clear-text data IP packets are forwarded in a VRF using the ip vrf forwarding command, and encrypted tunnel IP packets are forwarded in a VRF using the tunnel vrf command. |
The ip vrf forwarding and tunnel vrf commands may be used at the same time. If they are used at the same time, the VRF name of each command may be the same or different.
For information about configuring the forwarding of clear-text data IP packets into a VRF, see the section “Configuring the Forwarding of Clear-Text Data IP Packets into a VRF.” For information about configuring the forwarding of encrypted tunnel packets into a VRF, see the section “Configuring the Forwarding of Encrypted Tunnel Packets into a VRF.”
For more information about configuring VRF, see reference in the “Related Documents” section.
The diagram below illustrates a typical VRF Integrated DMVPN scenario.
DMVPN--Enabling Traffic Segmentation Within DMVPN
Cisco IOS Release 12.4(11)T provides an enhancement that allows you to segment VPN traffic within a DMVPN tunnel. VRF instances are labeled, using MPLS, to indicate their source and destination.
The diagram below and the corresponding bullets explain how traffic segmentation within DMVPN works.
The hub shown in the diagram is a WAN-PE and a route reflector, and the spokes (PE routers) are clients.
There are three VRFs, designated “red,” “green,” and “blue.”
Each spoke has both a neighbor relationship with the hub (multiprotocol Border Gateway Protocol [MP-iBGP] peering) and a GRE tunnel to the hub.
Each spoke advertises its routes and VPNv4 prefixes to the hub.
The hub sets its own IP address as the next-hop route for all the VPNv4 addresses it learns from the spokes and assigns a local MPLS label for each VPN when it advertises routes back to the spokes. As a result, traffic from Spoke A to Spoke B is routed via the hub.
An example illustrates the process:
Spoke A advertises a VPNv4 route to the hub, and applies the label X to the VPN.
The hub changes the label to Y when the hub advertises the route to Spoke B.
When Spoke B has traffic to send to Spoke A, it applies the Y label, and the traffic goes to the hub.
The hub swaps the VPN label, by removing the Y label and applying an X label, and sends the traffic to Spoke A.
NAT-Transparency Aware DMVPN
DMVPN spokes are often situated behind a NAT router (which is often controlled by the ISP for the spoke site) with the outside interface address of the spoke router being dynamically assigned by the ISP using a private IP address (per Internet Engineering Task Force [IETF] RFC 1918).
Prior to Cisco IOS Release 12.3(6) and 12.3(7)T, these spoke routers had to use IPsec tunnel mode to participate in a DMVPN network. In addition, their assigned outside interface private IP address had to be unique across the DMVPN network. Even though ISAKMP and IPsec would negotiate NAT-T and “learn” the correct NAT public address for the private IP address of this spoke, NHRP could only “see” and use the private IP address of the spoke for its mapping entries. Effective with the NAT-Transparency Aware DMVPN enhancement, NHRP can now learn and use the NAT public address for its mappings as long as IPsec transport mode is used (which is the recommend IPsec mode for DMVPN networks). The restriction that the private interface IP address of the spoke must be unique across the DMVPN network has been removed. It is recommended that all DMVPN routers be upgraded to the new code before you try to use the new functionality even though spoke routers that are not behind NAT do not need to be upgraded. In addition, you cannot convert upgraded spoke routers that are behind NAT to the new configuration (IPsec transport mode) until the hub routers have been upgraded.
Also added in Cisco IOS Releases 12.3(9a) and 12.3(11)T is the capability to have the hub DMVPN router behind static NAT. This was a change in the ISAKMP NAT-T support. For this functionality to be used, all the DMVPN spoke routers and hub routers must be upgraded, and IPsec must use transport mode.
For these NAT-Transparency Aware enhancements to work, you must use IPsec transport mode on the transform set. Also, even though NAT-Transparency (IKE and IPsec) can support two peers (IKE and IPsec) being translated to the same IP address (using the UDP ports to differentiate them), this functionality is not supported for DMVPN. All DMVPN spokes must have a unique IP address after they have been NAT translated. They can have the same IP address before they are NAT translated.
The diagram below illustrates a NAT-Transparency Aware DMVPN scenario.
Note | In Cisco IOS Release 12.4(6)T or earlier, DMVPN spokes behind NAT will not participate in dynamic direct spoke-to-spoke tunnels. Any traffic to or from a spoke that is behind NAT will be forwarded using the DMVPN hub routers. DMVPN spokes that are not behind NAT in the same DMVPN network may create dynamic direct spoke-to-spoke tunnels between each other. In Cisco IOS Release 12.4(6)T or later releases, DMVPN spokes behind NAT will participate in dynamic direct spoke-to-spoke tunnels. The spokes must be behind NAT boxes that are preforming NAT, not PAT. The NAT box must translate the spoke to the same outside NAT IP address for the spoke-spoke connections as the NAT box does for the spoke-hub connection. If there is more than one DMVPN spoke behind the same NAT box, then the NAT box must translate the DMVPN spokes to different outside NAT IP addresses. It is also likely that you may not be able to build a direct spoke-spoke tunnel between these spokes. If a spoke-spoke tunnel fails to form, then the spoke-spoke packets will continue to be forwarded via the spoke-hub-spoke path. |
Call Admission Control with DMVPN
In a DMVPN network, it is easy for a DMVPN router to become “overwhelmed” with the number of tunnels it is trying to build. Call Admission Control can be used to limit the number of tunnels that can be built at any one time, thus protecting the memory of the router and CPU resources.
It is most likely that Call Admission Control will be used on a DMVPN spoke to limit the total number of ISAKMP sessions (DMVPN tunnels) that a spoke router will attempt to initiate or accept. This limiting is accomplished by configuring an IKE SA limit under Call Admission Control, which configures the router to drop new ISAKMP session requests (inbound and outbound) if the current number of ISAKMP SAs exceeds the limit.
It is most likely that Call Admission Control will be used on a DMVPN hub to rate limit the number of DMVPN tunnels that are attempting to be built at the same time. The rate limiting is accomplished by configuring a system resource limit under Call Admission Control, which configures the router to drop new ISAKMP session requests (new DMVPN tunnels) when the system utilization is above a specified percentage. The dropped session requests allow the DMVPN hub router to complete the current ISAKMP session requests, and when the system utilization drops, it can process the previously dropped sessions when they are reattempted.
No special configuration is required to use Call Admission Control with DMVPN. For information about configuring Call Admission Control, see the reference in the section “Related Documents.”
NHRP Rate-Limiting Mechanism
NHRP has a rate-limiting mechanism that restricts the total number of NHRP packets from any given interface. The default values, which are set using the ip nhrp max-send command, are 100 packets every 10 seconds per interface. If the limit is exceeded, you will get the following system message:
%NHRP-4-QUOTA: Max-send quota of [int]pkts/[int]Sec. exceeded on [chars]
For more information about this system message, see the document 12.4T System Message Guide.
How to Configure Dynamic Multipoint VPN (DMVPN)
To enable mGRE and IPsec tunneling for hub and spoke routers, you must configure an IPsec profile that uses a global IPsec policy template and configure your mGRE tunnel for IPsec encryption. This section contains the following procedures:
- Configuring an IPsec Profile
- Configuring the Hub for DMVPN
- Configuring the Spoke for DMVPN
- Configuring the Forwarding of Clear-Text Data IP Packets into a VRF
- Configuring the Forwarding of Encrypted Tunnel Packets into a VRF
- Configuring DMVPN--Traffic Segmentation Within DMVPN
- Troubleshooting Dynamic Multipoint VPN (DMVPN)
Configuring an IPsec Profile
The IPsec profile shares most of the same commands with the crypto map configuration, but only a subset of the commands are valid in an IPsec profile. Only commands that pertain to an IPsec policy can be issued under an IPsec profile; you cannot specify the IPsec peer address or the access control list (ACL) to match the packets that are to be encrypted.
Note | Security threats, as well as the cryptographic technologies to help protect against them, are constantly changing. For more information about the latest Cisco cryptographic recommendations, see the Next Generation Encryption (NGE) white paper. |
Before configuring an IPsec profile, you must define a transform set by using the crypto ipsec transform-set command.

Note | NHRP network IDs are locally significant and can be different. It makes sense from a deployment and maintenance perspective to use unique network IDnumbers (using the ip nhrp network-id command) across all routers in a DMVPN network, but it is not necessary that they be the same. |

Configuring DMVPN--Traffic Segmentation Within DMVPN
There are no new commands to use for configuring traffic segmentation, but there are tasks you must complete in order to segment traffic within a DMVPN tunnel:
- Prerequisites
- Enabling MPLS on the VPN Tunnel
- Configuring Multiprotocol BGP on the Hub Router
- Configuring Multiprotocol BGP on the Spoke Routers
Prerequisites
The tasks that follow assume that the DMVPN tunnel and the VRFs “red” and “blue” have already been configured.
For information on configuring a DMVPN tunnel, see the Configuring the Hub for DMVPN task and the Configuring the Spoke for DMVPN. For details about VRF configuration, see the Configuring the Forwarding of Clear-Text Data IP Packets into a VRF task and the Configuring the Forwarding of Encrypted Tunnel Packets into a VRF task.
Enabling MPLS on the VPN Tunnel
Because traffic segmentation within a DMVPN tunnel depends upon MPLS, you must configure MPLS for each VRF instance in which traffic will be segmented. For detailed information about configuring MPLS, see Cisco IOS Multiprotocol Label Switching Configuration Guide, Release 12.4.

Configuring Multiprotocol BGP on the Hub Router
You must configure multiprotocol iBGP (MP-iBGP) to enable advertisement of VPNv4 prefixes and labels to be applied to the VPN traffic. Use BGP to configure the hub as a route reflector. To force all traffic to be routed via the hub, configure the BGP route reflector to change the next hop to itself when it advertises VPNv4 prefixes to the route reflector clients (spokes).

- Example 2547oDMVPN with Traffic Segmentation (Enterprise Branch)
Example Hub Configuration for DMVPN
In the following example, which configures the hub router for multipoint GRE and IPsec integration, no explicit configuration lines are needed for each spoke; that is, the hub is configured with a global IPsec policy template that all spoke routers can talk to. In this example, EIGRP is configured to run over the private physical interface and the tunnel interface.

For information about defining and configuring ISAKMP profiles, see the references in the “Related Documents” section.
Example Spoke Configuration for DMVPN
In the following example, all spokes are configured the same except for tunnel and local interface address, thereby, reducing necessary configurations for the user:
crypto isakmp policy 1 encr aes authentication pre-share group 14 crypto isakmp key cisco47 address 0.0.0.0 ! crypto ipsec transform-set trans2 esp-aes esp-sha-hmac mode transport ! crypto ipsec profile vpnprof set transform-set trans2 ! interface Tunnel0 bandwidth 1000 ip address 10.0.0.2 255.255.255.0 ip mtu 1400 !

Example VRF Aware DMVPN
When configuring VRF Aware DMVPN, you must create a separate DMVPN network for each VRF instance. In the following example, there are two DMVPN networks: BLUE and RED. In addition, a separate source interface has been used on the hub for each DMVPN tunnel--a must for Cisco IOS Release 12.2(18)SXE. For other Cisco IOS releases, you can configure the same tunnel source for both of the tunnel interfaces, but you must configure the tunnel keyand tunnel protection (tunnel protection ipsec profile{name} shared)commands.
Note | If you use the shared keyword, then you should be running Cisco IOS Release 12.4(5) or Release 12.4(6)T, or a later release. Otherwise the IPsec/GRE tunnels under the two mGRE tunnel interfaces may not function correctly. |

Dynamic Multipoint VPN (DMVPN) Phase 1 |
12.2(13)T
|
The Dynamic Multipoint VPN (DMVPN) feature allows users to better scale large and small IPsec Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) by combining generic routing encapsulation (GRE) tunnels, IP security (IPsec) encryption, and Next Hop Resolution Protocol (NHRP). |
Glossary
AM --aggressive mode. A mode during IKE negotiation. Compared to MM, AM eliminates several steps, making it faster but less secure than MM. Cisco IOS software will respond in aggressive mode to an IKE peer that initiates aggressive mode.
GRE --generic routing encapsulation. Tunnels that provide a specific pathway across the shared WAN and encapsulate traffic with new packet headers to ensure delivery to specific destinations. The network is private because traffic can enter a tunnel only at an endpoint. Tunnels do not provide true confidentiality (encryption does) but can carry encrypted traffic.
GRE tunneling can also be used to encapsulate non-IP traffic into IP and send it over the Internet or IP network. The Internet Package Exchange (IPX) and AppleTalk protocols are examples of non-IP traffic.
IKE --Internet Key Exchange. A hybrid protocol that implements Oakley key exchange and Skeme key exchange inside the ISAKMP framework. Although IKE can be used with other protocols, its initial implementation is with IPsec. IKE provides authentication of the IPsec peers, negotiates IPsec keys, and negotiates IPsec security associations.
IPsec --IP security. A framework of open standards developed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF). IPsec provides security for transmission of sensitive information over unprotected networks such as the Internet. IPsec acts at the network layer, protecting and authenticating IP packets between participating IPsec devices (“peers”), such as Cisco routers.
ISAKMP --Internet Security Association Key Management Protocol. A protocol framework that defines payload formats, the mechanics of implementing a key exchange protocol, and the negotiation of a security association.
MM --main mode. Mode that is slower than aggressive mode but more secure and more flexible than aggressive mode because it can offer an IKE peer more security proposals. The default action for IKE authentication (rsa-sig, rsa-encr, or preshared) is to initiate main mode.
NHRP --Next Hop Resolution Protocol. Routers, access servers, and hosts can use NHRP to discover the addresses of other routers and hosts connected to a NBMA network.
The Cisco implementation of NHRP supports the IETF draft version 11 of NBMA Next Hop Resolution Protocol (NHRP).
The Cisco implementation of NHRP supports IP Version 4, Internet Packet Exchange (IPX) network layers, and, at the link layer, ATM, Ethernet, SMDS, and multipoint tunnel networks. Although NHRP is available on Ethernet, NHRP need not be implemented over Ethernet media because Ethernet is capable of broadcasting. Ethernet support is unnecessary (and not provided) for IPX.
PFS --Perfect Forward Secrecy. A cryptographic characteristic associated with a derived shared secret value. With PFS, if one key is compromised, previous and subsequent keys are not compromised, because subsequent keys are not derived from previous keys.
SA --security association. Describes how two or more entities will utilize security services to communicate securely. For example, an IPsec SA defines the encryption algorithm (if used), the authentication algorithm, and the shared session key to be used during the IPsec connection.
Both IPsec and IKE require and use SAs to identify the parameters of their connections. IKE can negotiate and establish its own SA. The IPsec SA is established either by IKE or by manual user configuration.
transform --The list of operations done on a dataflow to provide data authentication, data confidentiality, and data compression. One example of a transform is ESP with the 256-bit AES encryption algorithm and the AH protocol with the HMAC-SHA authentication algorithm.
VPN --Virtual Private Network. A framework that consists of multiple peers transmitting private data securely to one another over an otherwise public infrastructure. In this framework, inbound and outbound network traffic is protected using protocols that tunnel and encrypt all data. This framework permits networks to extend beyond their local topology, while remote users are provided with the appearance and functionality of a direct network connection.
