We now have a new Amahi [http://www.amahi.org/apps/ipsec-vpn IPsec VPN app] for your HDA!
 
= Introduction =
This VPN stack has many advantages, although it still requires two ports to be forwarded from your router to your HDA. These are
* [[IPSec VPN Mac OS X Client | Mac OS X]] built-in client
* [[IPSec VPN Android Client | Android]] built-in client, (ICS, i.e. 4.x or later)
 
The Android (2.x/3.x) OS is known to be broken with respect to [http://www.amahi.org/apps/ipsec-vpn IPSec VPN]. See [[IPSEC/L2TP_VPN_Server|here]] for a manual implementation that should work.
'''NOTE:''' By default, the VPN will only route traffic destined for your home network via the VPN. General web traffic etc, will *not* be encrypted. To change this behaviour so that all network traffic from your client is routed via your VPN, edit /etc/racoon/racoon.conf and remove the lines beginning "split_network" and "split_dns". The restart racoon.  = Changing the Secret and/or the Group Name =
Optionally, you can change the secret and/or group name.
service racoon restart
= Route All traffic through VPN (Amahi 6/Ubuntu) = After you install IPSEC VPN and configure your router and iPhone correctly, you may find that Twitter and Facebook are still blocked by some networks. Also searching for "what is my ip" via Google or your favorite search engine will report back that you are still on the local network. The Amahi VPN is set to use a split VPN tunnel by default. If you want to use blocked services while behind somebody's internet filters, you can use these steps to encrypt your traffic and use blocked services like Twitter and Facebook.  Below are the steps to direct all traffic through IPSEC the VPN =. Please note this will divert all of your traffic through your HDA, but you will not be able to access some of your network resources.

The Amahi VPN is set 2. Go to use a split VPN tunnel by default/etc/racoon. If you want to use blocked services while behind somebody's internet filters, you can use these steps to encrypt your traffic and use blocked services like twitter and facebook. cd /etc/racoon
Below are 3. Back up the steps to direct all traffic through the VPNoriginal racoon.conf in case things break. <br /> Please note: this will divert all of your traffic through your hda, but you will not be able to access some of your network resourcescp racoon.conf racoon.conf.orig
1 Open a terminal on your hda or ssh in.2 Go to /etc/racoon (that is spelled correctly BTW){{Code| cd /etc/racoon}}3 Back-up the original racoon4.conf in case things break4 As rootuser, open racoon.conf with your favorite editor, mine happens to be nano.{{Code| sudo nano racoon.conf}} 5 down arrow . Go to the line with "mode_cfg".{{Code| <pre>mode_cfg {
auth_source system;
save_passwd on;
dns4 192.168.1.10;

split_network include 198.162.1.0/24 10.100.100.0/24;
split_dns "home.com";
banner "/etc/racoon/welcome.txt";
}</pre>}}note <b>NOTE: I</b> Let'm going to s concentrate on the two lines that I were changed: "split_network" and "split_dns". 6 . Change split_network from "include" to "local_lan" and delete the 198.162.... range.{{Code| <pre>mode_cfg {
~~
split_network local_lan 10.100.100.0/24; </pre> }} 7 I also changed . Also change "split_dns " to the name that I changed my home domain to...{{Code| <pre>mode_cfg {
~~
split_dns "Jamahi3amahi3.com";</pre> }}8 . Save your work<br /> 9 . Restart the racoon server{{Code| sudo service racoon restart }} Or - open up your hdaHDA dashboard, click on settings->servers and restart the IPSEC server.
Googling Searching for "What what is My IPmy ip" via Google or your favorite search engine should now report your home VPN. You should then be able to use twitter Twitter and facebook Facebook through your VPN.
= Forwarding Route all traffic through the VPN (Fedora) =
delete the 2 lines with split in mode_cfg :
{{Code| split_network include 192.168.1.0/24, 10.8.1.0/24; split_dns "home.com";}}
<br>At /etc/racoon/amahi-up-down change the lines 19 and 26 from eth0 to em1 because this is the network interface of my Hda. The changes are
<br>from:
{{Code| iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s ${INTERNAL_ADDR4}/32 -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE}}
to
{{Code| iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s ${INTERNAL_ADDR4}/32 -o em1 -j MASQUERADE}}
and from:
{{Code| iptables -t nat -D POSTROUTING -s ${INTERNAL_ADDR4}/32 -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE}}
<br>to
{{Code| iptables -t nat -D POSTROUTING -s ${INTERNAL_ADDR4}/32 -o em1 -j MASQUERADE}}
Finally I go to <nowiki>http://hda</nowiki>->Setup->Settings->Servers and restart the IPsec VPN Server.
