Virtual Private Network-as-a-Service (VPNaaS) scenario

Enabling VPNaaS

This section describes the setting for the reference implementation. Vendor plugins or drivers can have different setup procedure and perhaps they provide their version of manuals.

  1. Enable the VPNaaS plug-in in the /etc/neutron/neutron.conf file by appending vpnaas to service_plugins in [DEFAULT]:

    [DEFAULT]
    # ...
    service_plugins = vpnaas

    Note

    vpnaas is just example of reference implementation. It depends on a plugin that you are going to use. Consider to set suitable plugin for your own deployment.

  2. Configure the VPNaaS service provider by creating the /etc/neutron/neutron_vpnaas.conf file as follows, strongswan used in Ubuntu distribution:

    [service_providers]
    service_provider = VPN:strongswan:neutron_vpnaas.services.vpn.service_drivers.ipsec.IPsecVPNDriver:default

    Note

    There are several kinds of service drivers. Depending upon the Linux distribution, you may need to override this value. Select libreswan for RHEL/CentOS, the config will like this: service_provider = VPN:openswan:neutron_vpnaas.services.vpn.service_drivers.ipsec.IPsecVPNDriver:default. Consider to use the appropriate one for your deployment.

  3. Configure the VPNaaS plugin for the L3 agent by adding to /etc/neutron/l3_agent.ini the following section, StrongSwanDriver used in Ubuntu distribution:

    [AGENT]
    extensions = vpnaas
    
    [vpnagent]
    vpn_device_driver = neutron_vpnaas.services.vpn.device_drivers.strongswan_ipsec.StrongSwanDriver

    Note

    There are several kinds of device drivers. Depending upon the Linux distribution, you may need to override this value. Select LibreSwanDriver for RHEL/CentOS, the config will like this: vpn_device_driver = neutron_vpnaas.services.vpn.device_drivers.libreswan_ipsec.LibreSwanDriver. Consider to use the appropriate drivers for your deployment.

  4. Create the required tables in the database:

    # neutron-db-manage --subproject neutron-vpnaas upgrade head

    Note

    In order to run the above command, you need to have neutron-vpnaas package installed on controller node.

  5. Restart the neutron-server in controller node to apply the settings.

  6. Restart the neutron-l3-agent in network node to apply the settings.

IPsec site-to-site connections will support multiple local subnets, in addition to the current multiple peer CIDRs. The multiple local subnet feature is triggered by not specifying a local subnet, when creating a VPN service. Backwards compatibility is maintained with single local subnets, by providing the subnet in the VPN service creation.

To support multiple local subnets, a new capability called "End Point Groups" has been added. Each endpoint group will define one or more endpoints of a specific type, and can be used to specify both local and peer endpoints for IPsec connections. The endpoint groups separate the "what gets connected" from the "how to connect" for a VPN service, and can be used for different flavors of VPN, in the future.

Refer Multiple Local Subnets for more detail.

Create the IKE policy, IPsec policy, VPN service, local endpoint group and peer endpoint group. Then, create an IPsec site connection that applies the above policies and service.

  1. Create an IKE policy:

    $ openstack vpn ike policy create ikepolicy

      +-------------------------------+----------------------------------------+
  3. Create a VPN service:

    $ openstack vpn service create vpn \
      --router 9ff3f20c-314f-4dac-9392-defdbbb36a66
      +----------------+--------------------------------------+

      +----------------+--------------------------------------+

    Note

    Please do not specify --subnet option in this case.

    The Networking openstackclient requires a router (Name or ID) and name.

  4. Create local endpoint group:

    $ openstack vpn endpoint group create ep_subnet \
      --type subnet \
      --value 1f888dd0-2066-42a1-83d7-56518895e47d

      +-------------+-------------------------------------------+

    Note

    The type of a local endpoint group must be subnet.

  5. Create peer endpoint group:

    $ openstack vpn endpoint group create ep_cidr \
      --type cidr \
      --value 192.168.1.0/24
      +-------------+--------------------------------------+

      | Endpoints   | [u'192.168.1.0/24']                  |
      | ID          | 5c3d7f2a-4a2a-446b-9fcf-9a2557cfc641 |
      | Name        | ep_cidr                              |
      | Project     | 095247cb2e22455b9850c6efff407584     |
      | Type        | cidr                                 |
      | project_id  | 095247cb2e22455b9850c6efff407584     |
      +-------------+--------------------------------------+

    Note

    The type of a peer endpoint group must be cidr.

  6. Create an ipsec site connection:

    $ openstack vpn ipsec site connection create conn \
      --vpnservice vpn \
      --ikepolicy ikepolicy \
      --ipsecpolicy ipsecpolicy \
      --peer-address 192.168.20.9 \
      --peer-id 192.168.20.9 \
