IPsec capture with decryption information

This is a capture I did from a StrongSwan net-to-net IPsec VPN I setup for testing.

Packet capture : pkt capture link





Phase 1 main mode - IKEv1 

Initiator cookie : 751b83775c20d140
Encryption key : d38c64bef9facf441f8ad9080e2bb157



Phase 2 quick mode 

Src IP : 172.16.1.70
Dest IP : 172.16.1.71
SPI : 0xc04af751
Encryption : AES-CBC
Encryption key : 0x7c60aad1e87addb04ce8030de87c95aa
Authentication : HMAC-SHA-1
Authentication key : 0x7d46f88c672d660d7a36d5a1a756f4e10ba6c29d


Src IP : 172.16.1.71
Dest IP : 172.16.1.71
SPI : 0xce38569e
Encryption : AES-CBC
Encryption key : 0x9b6eeff11d56d9e7e658d9b09c78d19a
Authentication : HMAC-SHA-1
Authentication key : 0x8ff0d9ff940d81198d555e3574e51a6354f9d7f6





If you want to do this your self follow the steps below to capture encryption keys from StrongSwan.


Edit /etc/sysctl.conf and uncomment "net.ipv4.ip_forward=1"  to enable routing

enter the command "ipsec up net-net" to start the IPsec tunnel




1) To get the two values to decrypt ISAKMP (IKE phase 1 and 2 )


Initiator cookie : can be found in the first pkt sent.



























Edit  /etc/ipsec.conf and add debug level 4 for IKE


# /etc/ipsec.conf - strongSwan IPsec configuration file

config setup
        charondebug="ike 4,enc 4"
        uniqueids=yes
        strictcrlpolicy=no

conn %default
        ikelifetime=60m
        keylife=8h
        rekeymargin=3m
        keyingtries=1
        keyexchange=ikev1
        authby=secret

conn net-net
        left=172.16.1.70
        leftsubnet=10.1.0.0/24
        leftid=@moon.strongswan.org
        leftfirewall=yes
        right=172.16.1.71
        rightsubnet=10.2.0.0/24
        rightid=@sun.strongswan.org

        auto=add



Restart the IPsec session and check /var/log/syslog file for the encryption key







2) To get keys data to decrypt the ESP data payload enter the command "ip xfrm state". You need enter data for the two security association.


root@ubuntu-1-ipsec:/home/ruwanindika# ip xfrm state
src 172.16.1.70 dst 172.16.1.71
proto esp spi 0xc39e664b reqid 1 mode tunnel

OSPF adjacency not forming ?

Router ID 3.3.3.3 (172.16.1.1) and router ID 4.4.4.4 (172.16.1.2) is not forming adjacency. I was thinking how to troubleshoot this.




Then I did a packet capture and saw that both routers are sending OSPF hello pkts



So why are they not forming adjacency ???  Let's look in to the hello pkts to see whether there is any obvious  difference between the hellos 




Then I corrected the configuration


R4#show running-config | section ospf
router ospf 1
 router-id 4.4.4.4
 area 172 stub
 redistribute eigrp 1 subnets
 network 172.16.1.0 0.0.0.255 area 172
R4#

R4#configure terminal 
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.
R4(config)#
R4(config)#router  ospf 1 
R4(config-router)#no area 172 stub 
R4(config-router)# 
R4(config-router)#area 172 nssa 
R4(config-router)#
R4(config-router)#end
R4#

Microwave oven interference

I visited this site because they were complaining about connectivity issues in a staff common area. I was sitting there looking at the spectrum analyser and someone came in and started the microwave oven. This is what I saw in the spectrum analyser.
