Subject: Re: [ovs-discuss] GRE ipsec tunnels over open vswitch

Hello,

I tried to implment ipsec+GRE using open vswitch on ubuntu vm inside vmware 
workstation.

I'm facing problem :

Once the ipsec+gre tunnel is up all my vm goes into freeze state, and my laptop 
and all other applications turns into freeze state.

[Sugesh] I haven’t seen this issue in my setup. Are you seeing this when the 
traffic is start flowing?? Since you are trying out in the VM, just to be sure, 
VM has enough processor and memory resource allocated because Ipsec is very CPU 
intensive task. 
Are you getting any error while configuring the ports/starting the OVS?


I have to restart all vm to resolve this issue.
[Sugesh] I assume when you restart the VM, the ipsec starts working without any 
issue. Can you please check the CPU and memory usage at that time..

So, could you please help me with the same.

Thanks,
Sanket

Hello,
Thanks for your reply.
 
Could you please tell me that open vswitch package name, so I can download and 
test Ipsec tunnel between two vm.
[Sugesh] You need to install openvswitch-ipsec debian package. OVS-IPSEC works 
only on debian machines. 
Refer debian/ovs-monitor-ipsec file to know more about how OVS interact with 
ipsec-tools and how SA, SP configurations are made in the kernel.
 
Thanks,

Hello,
 
I would like to know more about How I can setup GRE ipsec tunnel between vm 
using open vswitch.
[Sugesh] The ipsec tunnel setup is similar to normal tunnel setup except that 
you need to install all the necessary kernel ipsec + openvswitch-ipsec 
packages. An eg; for creating an ipsec-tunnel port is given below. 
    sudo ovs-vsctl --timeout 10 add-port br0 gre1 -- \                          
    set interface gre1 type=ipsec_gre \                                         
    options:remote_ip=100.0.0.2 options:psk=test
The port creation will be successful if all the prerequisites met. 
 
Thanks,
-sanket
