2.7.3. Host-To-Host VPN Using Libreswan
To configure Libreswan to create a host-to-host
IPsec
VPN, between two hosts referred to as “left” and “right”, and enter the following commands as root
on both of the hosts (“left” and “right”) to create new raw RSA key pairs:
~]#ipsec newhostkey --configdir /etc/ipsec.d \
--output /etc/ipsec.d/myvpn.secrets
Generated RSA key pair using the NSS database
This generates an RSA key pair for the host. The process of generating RSA keys can take many minutes, especially on virtual machines with low entropy.
To view the public key, issue the following command as
root
on either of the hosts. For example, to view the public key on the “left” host, run:
~]# ipsec showhostkey --left
ipsec showhostkey loading secrets from "/etc/ipsec.secrets"
ipsec showhostkey loading secrets from "/etc/ipsec.d/myvpn.secrets"
ipsec showhostkey loaded private key for keyid: PPK_RSA:AQOjAKLlL
# rsakey AQOjAKLlL
leftrsasigkey=0sAQOjAKLlL4a7YBv [...]
You have to add this key to the configuration file as explained in the following paragraphs.
The secret part is stored in
/etc/ipsec.d/*.db
files, also called the “NSS database”.
To make a configuration file for this host-to-host tunnel, the lines
leftrsasigkey=
and rightrsasigkey=
from above, are added to a custom configuration file placed in the /etc/ipsec.d/
directory.
Using an editor running as
root
, create a file with a corresponding name in the following format:
/etc/ipsec.d/myvpn.conf
Edit the file as follows:
conn myvpn leftid=@west.example.com left=192.1.2.23 leftrsasigkey=0sAQOrlo+hOafUZDlCQmXFrje/oZm [...] W2n417C/4urYHQkCvuIQ== rightid=@east.example.com right=192.1.2.45 rightrsasigkey=0sAQO3fwC6nSSGgt64DWiYZzuHbc4 [...] D/v8t5YTQ== authby=rsasig # load and initiate automatically auto=start
You can use the identical configuration file on both left and right hosts. They auto-detect if they are “left” or “right”. If one of the hosts is a mobile host, which implies the
IP
address is not known in advance, then on the mobile host use %defaultroute
as its IP
address. This picks up the dynamic IP
address automatically. On the static host that accepts connections from incoming mobile hosts, specify the mobile host using %any
for its IP
address.
Ensure the
leftrsasigkey
value is obtained from the “left” host and the rightrsasigkey
value is obtained from the “right” host.
Restart
ipsec
to ensure it reads the new configuration:
~]# service ipsec --full-restart
To check the tunnel is succesfully established, and additionally see how much traffic has gone through the tunnel, enter the following command as
root
:
~]# ipsec whack --trafficstatus
006 #2: "myvpn", type=ESP, add_time=1234567890, inBytes=336, outBytes=336, id='@east'
Alternatively, if not using the
auto=start
option in the /etc/ipsec.d/*.conf
file or if a tunnel is not succesfully established, use the following command as root
to load the IPsec
tunnel:
~]# ipsec auto --add myvpn
To bring up the tunnel, issue the following command as
root
, on the left or the right side:
~]# ipsec auto --up myvpn
2.7.3.1. Verify Host-To-Host VPN Using Libreswan
The
IKE
negotiation takes place on UDP
port 500. IPsec
packets show up as Encapsulated Security Payload
(ESP) packets. When the VPN connection needs to pass through a NAT router, the ESP
packets are encapsulated in UDP
packets on port 4500.
To verify that packets are being sent via the VPN tunnel, issue a command as
root
in the following format:
~]# tcpdump -n -i interface esp or udp port 500 or udp port 4500
00:32:32.632165 IP 192.1.2.45 > 192.1.2.23: ESP(spi=0x63ad7e17,seq=0x1a), length 132

Where interface is the interface known to carry the traffic. To end the capture with tcpdump, press Ctrl+C.
Note
The tcpdump commands interacts a little unexpectedly with
IPsec
. It only sees the outgoing encrypted packet, not the outgoing plaintext packet. It does see the encrypted incoming packet, as well as the decrypted incoming packet. If possible, run tcpdump on a router between the two machines and not on one of the endpoints itself.
