Configure the Viptela Remote Network

Configure the remote network between the Viptela SD-WAN and Prisma Access by completing the steps in the following workflows:

Create a Remote Network Configuration in Prisma Access

You can configure the IPSec tunnel in Prisma Access before you perform the IPSec tunnel configuration in Viptela.
Before you start, get the IP address of the Viptela SD-WAN device that you will be using as the other side of the remote network connection; you enter this information in your
IKE Gateway
profile.
  1. In Panorama, add an IPSec crypto profile, IKE crypto profile, IKE gateway, and IPSec tunnel in the
    Remote_Network_Template
    template.
    1. Select
      Network
      Network Profiles
      IPSec Crypto
      and
      Add
      an
      IPSec Crypto Profile
      , specifying supported
      Encryption
      and
      Authentication
      settings; then click
      OK
      .
      Be sure that you have selected the
      Remote_Network_Template
      in the
      Templates
      drop-down at the top of the page.
    2. Select
      Network Profiles
      IKE Crypto
      and
      Add
      an
      IKE Crypto Profile
      specifying supported
      DH Group
      ,
      Encryption
      , and
      Authentication
      settings; then click
      OK
      .
    3. Select
      Network Profiles
      IKE Gateways
      and
      Add
      an
      IKE Gateway
      .
      • Specify the following values in the
        General
        tab:
        • Select a
          Peer IP Address Type
          of
          IP
          and enter the IP address of the Viptela SD-WAN device that you will be using as the other side of the remote network connection as the
          Peer Address
          .
        • If using a pre-shared key for the IPSec tunnel, specify a
          Pre-shared Key
          .
        • Leave
          Local Identification
          blank, because you do not know what this address is at the time of configuration; you add this later at the end of the procedure in Step 5.
        • Specify a
          Peer Identification
          of either
          IP Address
          or
          User FQDN
          .
          Be sure that you match the settings you specify here when you configure the device used to terminate the other side of the Viptela IPSec tunnel.
      • Select the following values in the
        Advanced Options
        tab:
        • Select
          Enable NAT Traversal
          .
          NAT traversal is required because the Viptela SD-WAN uses the IP address from the LAN side of the SD-WAN device as the source interface. As a result, all traffic undergoes NAT translation on the interface used for the remote network connection (that is, the WAN side of the Viptela SD-WAN).
          With the NAT Traversal option enabled, Prisma Access performs UDP encapsulation on IKE and UDP protocols, enabling them to pass through intermediate NAT devices.
        • Select the
          IKE Crypto Profile
          you created in Step 1.b.
      • Click
        OK
        when complete.
    4. Select
      IPSec Tunnels
      and
      Add
      an
      IPSec Tunnel
      , specifying the
      IKE Gateway
      and
      IPSec Crypto Profile
      you just created.
    5. (
      Optional
      ) Select
      Tunnel Monitor
      and specify a
      Destination IP
      address that can monitor reachability of the IPSec tunnel between Prisma Access and the Viptela SD-WAN.
      Make a note of this address; you match this address with the loopback100 interface you assign to the Viptela SD-WAN when you configure the remote network connection in Viptela.
  2. Make a note of all IKE and IPSec settings you used in the tunnel configuration.
  3. Onboard your remote network connection and enter the following values:
    • Specify a
      Name
      ,
      Bandwidth
      , and
      Region
      .
    • Select the
      IPSec Tunnel
      profile you created in Step 1.d.
    • Specify a
      Branch IP Subnet
      that is significant to Viptela.
      A /30 subnet is sufficient for a Viptela-Prisma Access SD-WAN integration, because you need only two IP addresses for this configuration:
  4. Commit the configuration changes to Panorama and push the configuration out to Prisma Access for remote networks.
    1. Click
      Commit
      Commit to Panorama
      .
    2. Click
      Commit
      Commit and Push
      . Click
      Edit Selections
      Prisma Access
      , and select both Prisma Access for remote networks and Prisma Access for service setup to push the configuration out to the service.
    3. Click
      OK
      and
      Push
      .
  5. Complete configuration of the
    IKE Gateway
    .
    1. Select
      Panorama
      Cloud Services
      Status
      Network Details
      , click the
      Remote Networks
      tab, and make a note of the
      Service IP Address
      .
    2. Select
      Network Profiles
      IKE Gateways
      and select the
      IKE Gateway
      you specified in Step 1.c.
    3. Change
      Local Identification
      to
      IP address
      and add the
      Service IP Address
      you just retrieved (13.1.1.1 in this example).
      Be sure to make a note of the
      Service IP Address
      ; you must configure this as the peer IP address to set up the IPSec tunnel between the Viptela SD-WAN device and Prisma Access.

Create a Remote Network Connection in Viptela

Use the following steps to configure the IPSec tunnel in Viptela. The examples in this section use command-line interface (CLI) commands.
This configuration completes the remote network connection between Prisma Access and the Viptela SD-WAN. The following figure shows what you define in the Viptela side:
  • On the LAN side of the Viptela SD-WAN device, create a ge0/0 interface with an IP address of 10.50.50.1. This matches the IP address you specified when you configured the
    IKE Gateway
    in Prisma Access.
    The Viptela SD-WAN performs NAT on the source IP address for the LAN (73.146.228.139).
  • On the remote network tunnel (WAN) side, create an interface named
    ipsec2
    with a type, slot, and port of ge0/4 whose IP address is 10.10.10.1/30.
    This address must be within the subnet range you specified for the
    Branch IP Subnet
    when you onboarded your remote network in Prisma Access. In this example, the administrator specified a
    Branch IP Subnet
    of 10.10.10.0/30 in Prisma Access, and you use the other available IP address (10.10.10.1/30) on the Viptela side of the remote network connection.
  • Specify a
    tunnel-destination
    IP address that matches the Prisma Access
    Service IP Address
    . This example uses
    13.1.1.1
    .
  • Specify a
    loopback
    IP address that Prisma Access can use for tunnel monitoring.
    In this example, the administrator configured a
    loopback100
    interface with an IP address of 10.1.50.1/32. This value matches the
    Tunnel Monitor
    Destination IP
    address you specified in the
    IPSec Tunnel
    configuration that you configured in Prisma Access.
  1. Open a CLI session with the Viptela SD-WAN device and enter the following commands to define the control plane for the Viptela Overlay Management Protocol (OMP).
    The following commands enable a graceful restart for the OMP and advertise static and connected routes.
    omp no shutdown graceful-restart advertise connected advertise static
  2. Define the security types for the IPSec tunnel.
    The following commands enable the AH-SHA1 HMAC and ESP HMAC-SHA1 authentication types.
    security ipsec authentication-type sha1-hmac ah-sha1-hmac
  3. Configure VPNs to segment the Viptela overlay network.
    The following commands create a VPN
    VPN 0
    named
    Transport VPN
    and associates the
    ge0/4
    interface with this VPN. You use this interface and VPN for the Viptela SD-WAN side of the remote network tunnel (IPSec tunnel) between Viptela and Prisma Access.
    vpn 0 name "Transport VPN" interface ge0/4 ip dhcp-client tunnel-interface encapsulation ipsec color biz-internet allow-service all no allow-service bgp allow-service dhcp allow-service dns allow-service icmp no allow-service sshd no allow-service netconf no allow-service ntp no allow-service ospf no allow-service stun
  4. Enter the
    no shutdown
    command to enable the
    ge0/4
    interface.
  5. Create another VPN named
    VPN 1
    , associate the
    ge0/0
    interface with this VPN, then define parameters for it.
    The following example defines the parameters to allow the Viptela SD-WAN to route traffic from the LAN to its ge0/0 interface.
    vpn 1 interface ge0/0 ip address 10.50.50.1/24 no shutdown dhcp-server address-pool 10.50.50.0/24 exclude 10.50.50.1 offer-time 600 lease-time 86400 admin-state up options default-gateway 10.50.50.1 dns-servers 8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4
  6. Create an interface named
    ipsec2
    and apply it to the
    ge0/4
    interface. These commands define the parameters for the remote network tunnel between the Viptela SD-WAN and Prisma Access.
    Enter the following values:
    • Enter an
      ip address
      to allow the Viptela SD-WAN to route traffic to Prisma Access.
      This address must be within the subnet range you specified for the
      Branch Subnet
      when you onboarded your remote network in Prisma Access. A /30 address is sufficient to allow routing to Prisma Access.
    • Specify the same
      tunnel-source-interface
      that you used for
      VPN 0
      (
      ge0/4
      in this example).
    • Specify a
      tunnel-destination
      using the
      Service IP Address
      from Prisma Access. This example uses
      13.1.1.1
      as the
      Service IP Address
      .
    • Make sure that the
      ike
      and
      ipsec
      parameters that you specify match the parameters you specified in Prisma Access.
    • Enter a
      pre-shared-secret
      that matches the
      Pre-shared key
      (PSK) that you entered in Prisma Access. This example uses a PSK of
      secretkey
      .
    interface ipsec2 ip address 10.10.10.1/30 tunnel-source-interface ge0/4 tunnel-destination 13.1.1.1 ike version 1 mode main rekey 14400 cipher-suite aes128-cbc-sha1 group 2 authentication-type pre-shared-key pre-shared-secret secretkey ! ! ! ipsec rekey 3600 replay-window 512 cipher-suite aes256-cbc-sha1
  7. Enter the
    no shutdown
    command on the ipsec2 interface to enable it.
  8. Create a loopback interface to be used for tunnel monitoring.
    interface loopback100 ip address 10.1.50.1/32 no shutdown
  9. Create a default route for the network.
    This route uses the second IP address (
    10.10.10.2
    in this example) of the /30 subnet you used when you onboarded your remote network in Prisma Access. The Viptela side of the network can route to this IP address and uses it as a next hop for routing.
    ip route 0.0.0.0/0 10.10.10.2
  10. Enter a VPN and give it a name.
    vpn 512 name "Transport VPN"
  11. Apply policies for the network.
    policy app-visibility flow-visibility
