  • 1.  Management of an SRX via a VPN Tunnel

    Posted 07-16-2014 05:55

    I have a branch site connecting to a central site via an IPSec VPN.

     

    The central site has an IPSec VPN to my management site.

     

    Is it possible to manage the branch site from my managment site, and how would I go about implementing this?

    Hi John,

     

    yes , it  is possible.

     

    Management subnet needs to be advertised across the vpn tunnel.

     

    SRX A has 2 subnets ( LANA and MANAGEMENT subnet )

    SRXB -branch has one subnet (LANB)

     

    Now if you have policy based vpn , you need to configure 2 security policies for each subnet.

     

    On Hub SRXA

    1. LANA to LAN of B

    2. MANAGEMENT to LAN of B

     

    OnBranchSRXB;

     

    1, LAN B to LAN A

    2. LAN B to Management

     

    Now you will see 2 Ipsec sa for each subnet separately.

     

    If it is route based , then you need to create 2 routes for each subnet on the branch if the proxy id is 0.0.0.0

     

    On SRX A:

     

    Route LANB next-hop ST0.X

     

    On SRXB:

    Route LANA next=hop ST0.1

    Route Management next-hop st0.1

    Sorry, could you explain further using the following definitions:

     

    SiteA: Main Site

    SiteB: Branch Site

    Site C: Management Site

     

    To be clear I want to create a VPN from SiteB to SiteA that can be managed at SiteC where site C already has a VPN in place

    John, 

     

    You'll probably want to use the second example (route-based) since you have 3 sites.  Take a look at this, its 2 sites, but its a good idea for route-based: http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/en_US/junos12.1x44/topics/example/ipsec-route-based-vpn-configuring.html

    Hi John,

     

    Yes , SRXA is Hubn

     

    SRX-B and SRX-M ae branch sites.

     

    You can configure Hub and Spoke setup vpn where SRXB  can access SRXM sites through SRXA.

     

    Following Application Notes and Documents can help you.

    Hi John,

     

    Advertising the management subnet across vpn tunnel is the only option.

     

    i cannot think of anything else.
