Cisco IPsec vs. L2TP (over IPsec) The term Cisco IPsec is just a marketing ploy which basically means plain IPsec using ESP in tunnel mode without any additional encapsulation, and using the Internet Key Exchange protocol (IKE) to establish the tunnel. IKE provides several authentication options, preshared keys (PSK) or X.509 certificates combined with Extended Authentication (XAUTH) user ...
I am trying to setup a VPN connection with StrongSwan inside an Ubuntu 24.04 WSL. I am using strongswan because from what I've seen it's basically the only client which allows for an IPSec XAuth lo...
In your Android 13 choose VPN client (IKEv2/IPSec RSA) and provide data especially including imported certificates. You cannot save configuration without providing IPSec Identifier - any string here will work, but you need to make changes as in point 2 also.
Once the customized templates are ready - This is the start point, for any new certificate Create New Certificate I adhered to the Creating certificates with XCA manual of Fortinet for the creation of the certificates but with the customized templates from section 5. Since the customized templates contain all the data, including Subject and Extensions, it is necessary to click Apply All ...
IPSec Passthrough - Internet Protocol security (IPSec) is a suite of protocols for ensuring private, secure communications over Internet Protocol (IP) networks, through the use of cryptographic security services.
That leaves IPsec tunnel or L2TP (With IPsec). What i really don't understand about IPSec is that it seems to use a "Pre shared key" for authentication, and i don't quite know how this works. Does every remote user login with the same PSK? In which case how can you distinguish remote users on the server end?
Firstly, if the VPN server is behind a NAT and the VPN client is behind a NAT this could cause a problem because apparently "by default Windows does not support IPSec network address translation (NAT) Traversal (NAT-T) security associations to servers that are located behind a NAT device", and this applies to Windows 10 still as well.
I have setup an IPsec tunnel between the two gateways, but while I can access both gateways from a local host, I can't connect to any remote hosts. Additionally the local gateway can't ping the remote gateway.
The IPSec connection is successfully established, but the connection fails at the point of MS-CHAP authentication, specifically the log looks like this: Feb 14 00:03:04 ip-172-31-46-6 xl2tpd[176607]: Connecting to host <gateway IP redacted>, port 1701
