Redundant hub and spoke VPN

Redundant hub and spoke VPN

This recipe provides sample configuration of hub and spoke IPsec VPN. The following applies for this scenario:

l The spokes have two WAN interfaces and two IPsec VPN tunnels for redundancy. l The secondary VPN tunnel is up only when the primary tunnel is down by dead peer detection.

The following shows the sample network topology for this recipe:

As only partial configuration can be completed from the GUI, it is recommended to achieve this configuration via the CLI commands as shown below.

To configure redundant hub and spoke VPN using the FortiOS CLI:

1. Configure the hub:
2. Configure the WAN, internal interface, and static route:

config system interface edit “port13” set alias “WAN”

set ip 172.16.202.1 255.255.255.0

next edit “port9” set alias “Internal” set ip 172.16.101.1 255.255.255.0

next

end

config router static edit 1 set gateway 172.16.202.2 set device “port13”

next end

1. Configure the IPsec phase1-interface and phase2-interface:

config vpn ipsec phase1-interface edit “hub” set type dynamic set interface “port13” set peertype any set net-device enable

set proposal aes128-sha256 aes256-sha256 aes128-sha1 aes256-sha1 set dpd on-idle set psksecret sample set dpd-retryinterval 60

next

end

config vpn ipsec phase2-interface edit “hub” set phase1name “hub”

set proposal aes128-sha1 aes256-sha1 aes128-sha256 aes256-sha256 aes128gcm aes256gcm chacha20poly1305

next

end

1. Configure the firewall policy:

config firewall policy

edit 1 set name “spoke-hub” set srcintf “hub” set dstintf “port9” set srcaddr “all” set dstaddr “172.16.101.0” set action accept set schedule “always” set service “ALL”

next edit 2 set name “spoke-spoke” set srcintf “hub” set dstintf “hub” set srcaddr “all” set dstaddr “all” set action accept set schedule “always” set service “ALL”

next

end

2. Configure the spokes:
