Internet Key Exchange
IKE Version 1 


Phase 1 

The main purpose of Phase 1 is to set up a secure encrypted channel through which the two peers can negotiate Phase 2.

  • Main Mode:  ( site-2-site )
  1. Propose : Asymmetrical Encryption and Authentication Algorithms
  2. Initiator and responder: Diffie-Hellman key exchange process  (send Public key + Random number )

            DH use group 1,2,5,12,19,20,24 for longer/stronger/ number of bit

            Pre-shared key or PSK

            Private Keys ( ???? exchange using PKI or Public key infrastructure with CA 

  3. Use the encrypted communication channel

  4. Send IKE identification to authenticate itself

  • Aggressive Mode:  
  1. Initiator Propose : Encryption and Authentication Algorithms  + IKE identity to authenticate itself
  2. Responder Propose
  3. Secure channel for negotiating the IPsec VPN phase 2
Phase 2
Phase 2

The purpose of Phase 2 negotiations is for the two peers to agree on a set of parameters that define what traffic can go through the VPN, and how to encrypt and authenticate the traffic

Generate Symmetrical Encryption Key 

        ESP Encryption Algorithm  ( 3DES/AES )

        AH  Authentication Algorithm ( MD5/SHA1/SHA2)  SH! and MD5 produce a Fixed-length output : a hashed message

        VPN protocol :  ESP(+AH) or AH

        Mode the VPN use:  Tunnel or Transport Mode

IKE Version 2

Tunnel Mode ( most used )
  • encapsulation of the layer 3 / original packet
  • With ESP(+AH) or just AH



Transport Mode 

encapsulation of layer 4 of the original packet

RA: Registration Authority

VA: Validation Authority

CA: Certification Authority

Digital certificate: 

Based on X.509

Information:

Issuer / ID

Serial Number

Expiration dates / Validity

Digital signature ( from the Certificate Authority)





Finger Print

File ( or Transaction)  → hashed


hashing

MD5 , SHA1, SHA2

At the source:

                file / text / ....  → hashing Algo  → hashed value / string

On the other side:

            password ( or text ) → same hashing Algo → produce the same hashed value/ string

            compare the two hash

Hash lose information, and can not restore the original information

Encryption that use Asymmetrical KeyEncryption that use symmetrical Key




IKE Identification

IP Address

Hostname

User FQDN

Distinguished name

IKE-ID

SRX VPN Type

Policy-Based VPN

       Policy: from 


Route-Based VPN



 NAT-Transversal

Client is behind a Modem/FW which does NAT/PAT, IKE ( not end-use packet, only negociation messages ) 

Modem/FW using source-NAT → will modify source IP@ and Source TCP/UDP port ( upstream traffic )

Consequence the Hash ( Authenticatation)  is invalid!!!!    

Solution:    UDP Encapsulation

Encapsulate and de-capsulate the traffic into UDP/4500  ( instead of IKE negotiation UDP/500 )
