Introduction

This guide provides information that can be used to configure a Fortigate device to support IPsec VPN client connectivity. The Shrew Soft VPN Client has been tested with Fortigate products to ensure interoperability.

Overview

The configuration example described below will allow an IPsec VPN client to communicate with a single remote private network. The client uses the DHCP over IPsec configuration method to acquire the following parameters automatically from the gateway.

  • IP Address
  • IP Netmask
  • DNS Servers
  • DNS Default Domain Suffix
  • WINS Servers

Gateway Configuration

This example assumes you have knowledge of the Fortigate web configuration interface. For more information, please consult your Fortigate product documentation.

Interfaces

Two network interfaces are configured. The wan interface has a static public IP address of 10.1.1.22 which faces the internet. The internal interface has a static private IP address of 10.1.2.22 which faces the internal private network. The default gateway is configured as 1.1.1.1 via the WAN interface.

Address Definitions

Several address definitions must be created. These will be used later in other parts of the gateway configuration. Navigate to the following screen using the pane on the left hand side of the browser interface.

Fortigate-nav-1a.jpg

To create a new address definition, click on the Create New button at the top of the page.

Fortigate-nav-1b.jpg

Wan Interface Entry

Create an address definition to represent the IP address of the public interface. This will be used later in a firewall policy definition to allow clients to communicate with the DHCP server via IPsec.

Define the following parameters.

  • Address Name = gateway_wan1
  • Type = Subnet / IP Range
  • Subnet / IP Range = 10.1.1.22/255.255.255.255
  • Interface = wan1 [ or your external interface ]

When finished click OK.

Private Network Entry

Create an address definition to represent the private network protected by the Fortigate. This will be used later in a firewall policy definition to allow clients to communicate with the private network via IPsec.

Define the following parameters.

  • Address Name = gateway_prvnet1
  • Type = Subnet / IP Range
  • Subnet / IP Range = 10.1.2.0/255.255.255.0
  • Interface = internal [ or your internal interface ]

When finished click OK.

DHCP Server Parameters

An IPsec over DHCP server must be created. This will define the parameters to be assigned to clients when they connect. Navigate to the following screen using the pane on the left hand side of the browser interface.

Fortigate-nav-2a.jpg

To create a new DHCP server definition, click on the arrow next to your external interface name to expand the options. Then click on the plus icon to the right of the Servers option.

Fortigate-nav-2b.jpg

When defining your DHCP parameters, make sure you select an address range that does not overlap with any private network protected by the Fortigate unit.

Define the following parameters.

  • Name = vpnclient_dhcp
  • Enable = Checked
  • Type = IPSEC
  • IP Range = 10.2.22.2 - 10.2.22.64 [ or your desired range ]
  • Network Mask = 255.255.255.0
  • Default Gateway = 10.2.22.1
  • Domain = yourdomain.com
  • Lease Time = 1 day

When finished click OK. Fortigate-pic-2.jpg

Dialup Users

Dialup user accounts must be created. These will be the user name and passwords a remote access users will use to authenticate with the gateway. Navigate to the following screen using the pane on the left hand side of the browser interface.

Fortigate-nav-3a.jpg

To create a new user, click on the Create New button at the top of the page.

Fortigate-nav-3b.jpg

Define the following parameters for each user account.

  • User Name = User account name
  • Password = User account password

When finished click OK.

Dialup User Group

A dialup user group must be created. By placing a user account in this group, it will allow them to access the gateway using the client software. Navigate to the following screen using the pane on the left hand side of the browser interface.

Fortigate-nav-4a.jpg

To create a new user group, click on the Create New button at the top of the page.

Fortigate-nav-4b.jpg

Define the following parameters for each user account.

  • Name = vpnclient_usergroup
  • Type = Firewall
  • Protection Profile = unfiltered

Next, select the remote access user account names from the left hand Available list and add them to the right hand Members list.

When finished click OK.

Phase 1 Parameters

The IKE phase 1 parameters must be configured for our remote access connections. Navigate to the following screen using the pane on the left hand side of the browser interface.

Fortigate-nav-5a.jpg

To create a new Phase 1 definition, click on the Create Phase 1 button at the top of the screen.

Fortigate-nav-5b.jpg

Define the following parameters.

Client Configuration

The client configuration in this example is straight forward. Open the Access Manager application and create a new site configuration. Configure the settings listed below in the following tabs.

General Tab

The Remote Host section must be configured. This Host Name or IP Address is defined as 10.1.2.22 to match the Fortigate wan interface address. The Auto Configuration option is set to dhcp over ipsec.

Phase 1 Tab

The Proposal section must be configured to match the Fortigate Phase 1 definition. The Exchange Type is set to aggressive and the DH Exchange is set to group 2.

Authentication Tab

The client authentication settings must be configured. The Authentication Method is defined as Mutual PSK + XAuth.

Local Identity Tab

The Local Identity parameters are defined as Fully Qualified Domain Name with a FQDN String of "vpnclient.domain.com" to match the Fortigate Phase 1 definition.

Remote Identity Tab

The Remote Identity parameters are set to IP Address with the Use a discovered remote host address option checked to match the Zywall Gateway Policy definition.

Credentials Tab

The Credentials Pre Shared Key is defined as "mypresharedkey" to match the match the Zywall Gateway Policy definition.

Policy Tab

The IPsec Policy configuration must be manually configured when communicating with Fortigate gateways. A single Topology Entry is defined to include the 10.1.2.0/24 network.

Known Issues

There is a known issue with Fortigate firmware revision 3.00-b0660(MR6). The problem prevents Xauth ( user authentication ) from working with peers that correctly implement the RFC draft. To correct this issue, upgrade your Fortigate unit to firmware revision 3.00-b0668(MR6 Patch 2) or downgrade to an older firmware version.
