This is a IPsec/L2TP VPN server implementation for Fedora 14 that allows Android OS (2.3.5 or less) devices to connect to your HDA. It has been tested with Android OS 2.3.5 via Samsung Galaxy S™ II Skyrocket™. It may not work for all Android devices or may require some modification.

Setup

Install the packages first as root user:

bash code
​yum -y install openswan xl2tpd​


Configure Openswan

  • Edit /etc/ipsec.conf with your favorite editor and update as follows (NOTE: Replace the {HDA IP Address} i.e. 192.168.0.10 and xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/24 i.e. 192.168.0.0/24 with the correct IP addresses for your network):
Text
​config setup protostack=netkey nat_traversal=yes virtual_private=%v4:10.0.0.0/8,%v4:172.16.0.0/12,%v4:!xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/24 oe=off nhelpers=0 conn L2TP-PSK-NAT rightsubnet=vhost:%priv also=L2TP-PSK-noNAT conn L2TP-PSK-noNAT authby=secret pfs=no auto=add keyingtries=3 rekey=no ikelifetime=8h keylife=1h type=transport left={HDA IP Address} leftprotoport=17/1701 right=%any rightprotoport=17/%any​


  • Add the following to /etc/ipsec.d/hda.secrets:
Text
​{HDA IP Address} %any: "a_key_that_is_at_least_8_characters_long"​


  • Edit /etc/sysctl.conf and add following to the file:
Text
​net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1 net.ipv4.conf.default.accept_redirects = 0 net.ipv4.conf.default.send_redirects = 0​


  • In the same file, disable the following by adding a #:
Text
​#net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-ip6tables = 0 #net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables = 0 #net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-arptables = 0​


  • To enable changes, do the following:
bash code
​sysctl -p​


  • Create /usr/bin/zl2tpset and add the following:
Text
​#!/bin/bash for each in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/*" do echo 0 > \$each/accept_redirects echo 0 > \$each/send_redirects done​


  • Make it executable
bash code
​chmod 755 /usr/bin/zl2tpset​


  • Add the following to /etc/rc.local so this script runs on boot:
Text
​/usr/bin/zl2tpset​


  • To verify everything is set correctly, do the following:
bash code
​service ipsec start ipsec verify​


  • Everything should be "green" except SAref kernel support (N/A) and Opportunistic Encryption (DISABLED).


Configure xl2tpd

  • Edit /etc/xl2tpd/xl2tpd.conf and update to reflect as follows:

NOTE: The IP range is outside an actively used IP range. For example if your DHCP server assigns IPs between 192.168.10.10 and 192.168.10.100 you can use 192.168.10.150-192.168.10.200. Also, xl2tpd needs a local IP which is used for communication with PPP. Given example, you could use 192.168.10.101.

Text
​[global] ipsec saref = no [lns default] ip range = 192.168.10.150-192.168.10.200 local ip = 192.168.10.101require chap = yes refuse pap = yes require authentication = yes ppp debug = yes pppoptfile = /etc/ppp/options.xl2tpd length bit = yes​


Configure PPP

  • Add following to /etc/ppp/chap-secrets (replace username and password accordingly):
Text
​username * password *​
  • Check /etc/ppp/options.xl2tpd to verify that all ms-dns entries point to the correct nameservers (the HDA).
  • Start xl2tpd:
bash code
​service xl2tpd start​


Configure Router

You need to forward port 500 and 4500 (both UDP) to your HDA IP address.

Set Services to Start on Boot

bash code
​chkconfig ipsec on chkconfig xl2tpd on​


That's basically it, you can now setup your L2TP/IPsec VPN client and try to connect.
