IPsec Tunneling Concepts
The IPsec suite of protocols were developed by the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) and are required as
part of IP version 6. Openswan is the open source implementation of IPsec used by ROX II.
The protocols used by IPsec are the Encapsulating Security Payload (ESP) and Internet Key Exchange (IKE)
protocols. ESP provides encryption and authentication (ensuring that a message originated from the expected
sender and has not been altered on route). IKE negotiates connection parameters, including keys, for ESP. IKE is
based on the Diffie-Hellman key exchange protocol, which allows two parties without any initial shared secret to
create one in a manner immune to eavesdropping.

IPsec Modes
IPsec has two basic modes of operation. In
transport
mode, IPsec headers are added as the original IP datagram
is created. The resultant packet is composed of an IP header, IPsec headers and IP payload (including a
transport header). Transport mode is most commonly used between IPsec end-stations, or between an end-
station and a gateway.
In
tunnel
mode, the original IP datagram is created normally and then encapsulated into a new IP datagram. The
resultant packet is composed of a new IP header, IPsec headers, old IP header and IP payload. Tunnel mode is
most commonly used between gateways, the gateway acting as a proxy for the hosts behind it.
