.. _sstp: #### SSTP #### :abbr:`SSTP (Secure Socket Tunneling Protocol)` is a form of :abbr:`VPN (Virtual Private Network)` tunnel that provides a mechanism to transport PPP traffic through an SSL/TLS channel. SSL/TLS provides transport-level security with key negotiation, encryption and traffic integrity checking. The use of SSL/TLS over TCP port 443 allows SSTP to pass through virtually all firewalls and proxy servers except for authenticated web proxies. SSTP is available for Linux, BSD, and Windows. VyOS utilizes accel-ppp_ to provide SSTP server functionality. We support both local and RADIUS authentication. As SSTP provides PPP via a SSL/TLS channel the use of either publically signed certificates as well as a private PKI is required. .. note:: All certificates should be stored on VyOS under ``/config/auth``. If certificates are not stored in the ``/config`` directory they will not be migrated during a software update. Self Signed CA and Certificates =============================== To generate the CA, the server private key and certificates the following commands can be used. .. code-block:: none vyos@vyos:~$ mkdir -p /config/user-data/sstp vyos@vyos:~$ openssl req -newkey rsa:4096 -new -nodes -x509 -days 3650 -keyout /config/user-data/sstp/server.key -out /config/user-data/sstp/server.crt Generating a 4096 bit RSA private key .........................++ ...............................................................++ writing new private key to 'server.key' [...] Country Name (2 letter code) [AU]: State or Province Name (full name) [Some-State]: Locality Name (eg, city) []: Organization Name (eg, company) [Internet Widgits Pty Ltd]: Organizational Unit Name (eg, section) []: Common Name (e.g. server FQDN or YOUR name) []: Email Address []: vyos@vyos:~$ openssl req -new -x509 -key /config/user-data/sstp/server.key -out /config/user-data/sstp/ca.crt [...] Country Name (2 letter code) [AU]: State or Province Name (full name) [Some-State]: Locality Name (eg, city) []: Organization Name (eg, company) [Internet Widgits Pty Ltd]: Organizational Unit Name (eg, section) []: Common Name (e.g. server FQDN or YOUR name) []: Email Address []: Configuration ============= .. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp authentication local-users username password Create `` for local authentication on this system. The users password will be set to ``. .. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp authentication local-users username disable Disable `` account. .. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp authentication local-users username static-ip
Assign static IP address to `` account. .. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp authentication local-users username rate-limit download Download bandwidth limit in kbit/s for ``. .. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp authentication local-users username rate-limit upload Upload bandwidth limit in kbit/s for ``. .. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp authentication protocols Require the peer to authenticate itself using one of the following protocols: pap, chap, mschap, mschap-v2. .. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp authentication mode Set authentication backend. The configured authentication backend is used for all queries. * **radius**: All authentication queries are handled by a configured RADIUS server. * **local**: All authentication queries are handled locally. .. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp network-settings client-ip-settings gateway-address Specifies single `` IP address to be used as local address of PPP interfaces. .. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp network-settings client-ip-settings subnet Use `` as the IP pool for all connecting clients. .. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp network-settings client-ipv6-pool prefix
mask Use this comand to set the IPv6 address pool from which an SSTP client will get an IPv6 prefix of your defined length (mask) to terminate the SSTP endpoint at their side. The mask length can be set from 48 to 128 bit long, the default value is 64. .. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp network-settings client-ipv6-pool delegate
delegation-prefix Use this command to configure DHCPv6 Prefix Delegation (RFC3633) on SSTP. You will have to set your IPv6 pool and the length of the delegation prefix. From the defined IPv6 pool you will be handing out networks of the defined length (delegation-prefix). The length of the delegation prefix can be set from 32 to 64 bit long. .. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp network-settings name-server
Connected client should use `
` as their DNS server. This command accepts both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. Up to two nameservers can be configured for IPv4, up to three for IPv6. Maximum number of IPv4 nameservers SSL Certificates ---------------- .. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp ssl ca-cert-file Path to `` pointing to the certificate authority certificate. .. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp ssl cert-file Path to `` pointing to the servers certificate (public portion). .. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp ssl key-file Path to `` pointing to the servers certificate (private portion). PPP Settings ------------ .. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp ppp-settings lcp-echo-failure Defines the maximum `` of unanswered echo requests. Upon reaching the value ``, the session will be reset. .. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp ppp-settings lcp-echo-interval If this option is specified and is greater than 0, then the PPP module will send LCP pings of the echo request every `` seconds. .. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp ppp-settings lcp-echo-timeout Specifies timeout in seconds to wait for any peer activity. If this option specified it turns on adaptive lcp echo functionality and "lcp-echo-failure" is not used. .. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp ppp-settings mppe Specifies :abbr:`MPPE (Microsoft Point-to-Point Encryption)` negotioation preference. * **require** - ask client for mppe, if it rejects drop connection * **prefer** - ask client for mppe, if it rejects don't fail * **deny** - deny mppe Default behavior - don't ask client for mppe, but allow it if client wants. Please note that RADIUS may override this option by MS-MPPE-Encryption-Policy attribute. RADIUS ------ Server ^^^^^^ .. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp authentication radius server port Configure RADIUS `` and its required port for authentication requests. .. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp authentication radius server key Configure RADIUS `` and its required shared `` for communicating with the RADIUS server. .. cfgcmd:: set vpn sstp authentication radius server fail-time
