######################## Dual-Hub DMVPN with VyOS ######################## DMVPN is a Dynamic Multipoint VPN technology that provides the capability for creating a dynamic-mesh VPN network without having to pre-configure (static) all possible tunnel end-point peers those simplifying deployment and management of the newly added remote sites. There are 3 main protocols primarily used to implement DMVPN: * NHRP - provides the dynamic tunnel endpoint discovery mechanism (endpoint registration, and endpoint discovery/lookup) * mGRE - provides the tunnel encapsulation itself * IPSec - protocols handle the key exchange, and crypto mechanism For this example we are using the following devices: * 2 x Hubs * 3 x Spokes * 1 x Client device (VPC) * 1 x ISP router The following software was used in the creation of this document: * Operating system: VyOS * Version: 1.3-beta-202112090443 * Image name: vyos-1.3-beta-202112090443-amd64.iso ******** Topology ******** .. image:: /_static/images/VyOS_Dual-Hub_DMVPN.png :width: 80% :align: center :alt: Network Topology Diagram ****************************************** Network Addressing and Protocol Parameters ****************************************** The following ip addressing schema used for the devices IPv4 connectivity: +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |10.X1.0.0/30 - p2p Hubs to ISP networks, where X is Hub site number | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |10.Y1.1.0/24 - p2p Spokes to ISP networks(DHCP), where Y is Spoke site number| +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |172.16.253.0/29 - tunnels addressing for Hub-1 connections | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |172.16.254.0/29 - tunnels addressing for Hub-2 connections | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |192.168.0.0/24 - HQ site local network | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |192.168.Z.0/24 - remote sites local network, where Z is Spoke site number | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ eBGP parameters for the routers: +----------------------------------------------+ |AS65000 - HQ (Hub-1 and Hub-2) | +----------------------------------------------+ |AS6500X - Spokes, where X is Spoke site number| +----------------------------------------------+ ************* Configuration ************* Step-1: Basic connectivity configuration ======================================== - Hub-1: .. code-block:: none set interfaces ethernet eth0 address '10.11.0.1/30' set interfaces ethernet eth1 address '192.168.0.1/24' set protocols static route 0.0.0.0/0 next-hop 10.11.0.2 set system host-name 'Hub-1' - Hub-2: .. code-block:: none set interfaces ethernet eth0 address '10.21.0.1/30' set interfaces ethernet eth1 address '192.168.0.2/24' set protocols static route 0.0.0.0/0 next-hop 10.21.0.2 set system host-name 'Hub-2' - Spoke-1: .. code-block:: none set interfaces ethernet eth0 address 'dhcp' set interfaces ethernet eth1 address '192.168.1.1/24' set system host-name 'Spoke-1' - Spoke-2: .. code-block:: none set interfaces ethernet eth0 address 'dhcp' set interfaces ethernet eth1 address '192.168.2.1/24' set system host-name 'Spoke-2' - Spoke-3: .. code-block:: none set interfaces ethernet eth0 address 'dhcp' set interfaces ethernet eth1 address '192.168.3.1/24' set system host-name 'Spoke-3' - ISP-1: .. code-block:: none set interfaces ethernet eth0 address '10.11.0.2/30' set interfaces ethernet eth1 address '10.21.0.2/30' set interfaces ethernet eth2 address '10.31.1.1/24' set interfaces ethernet eth3 address '10.21.1.1/24' set interfaces ethernet eth4 address '10.11.1.1/24' set service dhcp-server shared-network-name SPK-1 authoritative set service dhcp-server shared-network-name SPK-1 subnet 10.11.1.0/24 default-router '10.11.1.1' set service dhcp-server shared-network-name SPK-1 subnet 10.11.1.0/24 range 1 start '10.11.1.10' set service dhcp-server shared-network-name SPK-1 subnet 10.11.1.0/24 range 1 stop '10.11.1.100' set service dhcp-server shared-network-name SPK-2 authoritative set service dhcp-server shared-network-name SPK-2 subnet 10.21.1.0/24 default-router '10.21.1.1' set service dhcp-server shared-network-name SPK-2 subnet 10.21.1.0/24 range 1 start '10.21.1.10' set service dhcp-server shared-network-name SPK-2 subnet 10.21.1.0/24 range 1 stop '10.21.1.100' set service dhcp-server shared-network-name SPK-3 authoritative set service dhcp-server shared-network-name SPK-3 subnet 10.31.1.0/24 default-router '10.31.1.1' set service dhcp-server shared-network-name SPK-3 subnet 10.31.1.0/24 range 1 start '10.31.1.10' set service dhcp-server shared-network-name SPK-3 subnet 10.31.1.0/24 range 1 stop '10.31.1.100' set system host-name 'ISP1' Step-2: VRRP configuration for HQ Local network redundancy ========================================================== Here we are using VRRP as a local redundancy protocol between Hub-1 and Hub-2. Initially, Hub-1 operates as an Active and Hub-2 as a Standby router. Additionally, health-check and script are used to track uplinks and properly switch mastership between Hub nodes based on the upstream router reachability (ISP-1). **Note, that before adding local paths to the scripts into configuration, you have to create and make them executable first**. Hub-1 and Hub-2 VRRP health-check script: _________________________________________ * /config/scripts/vrrp-check.sh .. code-block:: none #!/bin/bash eth0status="$(cat /sys/class/net/eth0/operstate | grep 'up')" if [[ ! -z ${eth0status} ]]; then eth0gw="$(ip -j r show 0.0.0.0/0 dev eth0 | awk 'match($0, /\"gateway":\"([[:digit:]\.]+)/, gw) {print gw[1]}')" if [[ ! -z $eth0gw ]]; then /bin/ping -I eth0 -c 1 -W 1 $eth0gw && exit 0 || exit 1 else exit 1 fi else #Exit 0 because eth0 down is handled by vrrp transition exit 0 fi **Note**: some parts of the script might be dependent on your network topology and connectivity. Be careful before using it on your own devices.

Hub devices are configured with static IPv4 addresses on the uplink interfaces while Spoke devices receive addresses dynamically from a pre-defined DHCP pool configured on ISP router. For redundancy purposes, we use 1 tunnel interface on each Hub device and 2 tunnel interfaces on Spoke devices destined to each of the Hubs. For the optimal tunnel operation timers are significantly decreased and set to the following values: **NHRP** tunnel holding time - 30 seconds **IKE DPD** enabled with "restart" action set, interval 3 and timeout 30 seconds **Note**: these values are used only for the lab demonstration and may not suit exclusive production networks. -

As we're using Active-Standby mode in this example, Hub-2 is configured with AS-prepand as an export route-policy and VRRP transition scripts are used for switching mastership based on the current link/device state. Also, we use multihop BFD for faster eBGP failure detection.

First, let's check NHRP tunnels before passing the traffic between Spoke-1 and Spoke-2: .. code-block:: none vyos@Spoke-1:~$ show nhrp tunnel Status: ok Interface: tun200 Type: local Protocol-Address: 172.16.254.135/32 Alias-Address: 172.16.254.131 Flags: up Interface: tun200 Type: local Protocol-Address: 172.16.254.131/32 Flags: up Interface: tun100 Type: local Protocol-Address: 172.16.253.135/32 Alias-Address: 172.16.253.131 Flags: up Interface: tun100 Type: local Protocol-Address: 172.16.253.131/32 Flags: up Interface: tun200 Type: static Protocol-Address: 172.16.254.134/29 NBMA-Address: 10.21.0.1 Flags: used up Interface: tun100 Type: static Protocol-Address: 172.16.253.134/29 NBMA-Address: 10.11.0.1 Flags: used up vyos@Spoke-2:~$ show nhrp tunnel Status: ok Interface: tun100 Type: local Protocol-Address: 172.16.253.135/32 Alias-Address: 172.16.253.132 Flags: up Interface: tun100 Type: local Protocol-Address: 172.16.253.132/32 Flags: up Interface: tun200 Type: local Protocol-Address: 172.16.254.135/32 Alias-Address: 172.16.254.132 Flags: up Interface: tun200 Type: local Protocol-Address: 172.16.254.132/32 Flags: up Interface: tun100 Type: static Protocol-Address: 172.16.253.134/29 NBMA-Address: 10.11.0.1 Flags: used up Interface: tun200 Type: static Protocol-Address: 172.16.254.134/29 NBMA-Address: 10.21.0.1 After passing traffic we could see that there is additional shortcut tunnel created between Spoke-1 and Spoke-2 for the direct communication: .. code-block:: none vyos@Spoke-1:~$ ping 192.168.2.1 count 5 interface 192.168.1.1 PING 192.168.2.1 (192.168.2.1) from 192.168.1.1 : 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 192.168.2.1: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=1.03 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.2.1: icmp_seq=2 ttl=64 time=0.820 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.2.1: icmp_seq=3 ttl=64 time=1.13 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.2.1: icmp_seq=4 ttl=63 time=1.41 ms 64 bytes from 192.168.2.1: icmp_seq=5 ttl=64 time=0.988 ms --- 192.168.2.1 ping statistics --- 5 packets transmitted, 5 received, 0% packet loss, time 10ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 0.820/1.075/1.412/0.197 ms vyos@Spoke-1:~$ traceroute 192.168.2.1 traceroute to 192.168.2.1 (192.168.2.1), 30 hops max, 60 byte packets 1 192.168.2.1 (192.168.2.1) 1.172 ms 1.109 ms 1.151 ms vyos@Spoke-1:~$ show nhrp tunnel Status: ok Interface: tun200 Type: local Protocol-Address: 172.16.254.135/32 Alias-Address: 172.16.254.131 Flags: up Interface: tun200 Type: local Protocol-Address: 172.16.254.131/32 Flags: up Interface: tun100 Type: local Protocol-Address: 172.16.253.135/32 Alias-Address: 172.16.253.131 Flags: up Interface: tun100 Type: local Protocol-Address: 172.16.253.131/32 Flags: up Interface: tun200 Type: static Protocol-Address: 172.16.254.134/29 NBMA-Address: 10.21.0.1 Flags: used up ____________________________________ Interface: tun100 Type: cached Protocol-Address: 172.16.253.132/32 NBMA-Address: 10.21.1.11 Flags: used up Expires-In: 0:24 ____________________________________ Interface: tun100 Type: static Protocol-Address: 172.16.253.134/29 NBMA-Address: 10.11.0.1 Flags: used up The same applies to the rest of the devices and works with the same logic.
