Author semi OT: Remote user ASA Lan to LAN options
Voll, Scott

2007-02-06, 7:12 pm

So we just purchased a ASA5505 for a remote user to connect back to the
main site.



The idea was to do a LAN to LAN IPSEC tunnel. But since this is Comcast
(cable broadband) and they don't do static IP's I'm trying to figure out
how to go about this. My second thought is that since we will have a
SCCP IP phone behind it I can do a Dynamic VPN connection and since it's
SCCP then It will be sending keepalives to the CM the VPN connection
will stay up. Would this be correct?



Does anyone already do this? What are you doing?



Any other thoughts?



TIA

Now my second question is...... is it better to terminate this user on a
VPN Concentrator or on a Pix OS 7.2 if I'm using Easy VPN?

Scott,

I would use DMVPN as long as you have a static IP back at the main site.


Easy VPN would also work for a single remote user setup

This should do what you need to do.

As far as Voice is concerned is there any reason to go one way or the
other? IE> fixups

Depends on size

PiX last time I worked with them could only terminate a small number of
VPN clients somewhere under 50 if I remember right.

Whereas the Concentraters can do thousends of connections.

Get a second public ip address and buy the Meteros (Cisco) SCCP Proxy!



Regular voice isn't encrypted today and easily listenable on PSTN with
any butt set. This way you don't have house callsabout IPSEC tunnel
problems and VPN3 design issues.



Keep It Simple and Stupid. I can't imagine how much a bunch of ASA-5505
would cost for every site with 7900 Phones, much along the TCO of having
IPSEC tunnels.



I saw a cool demoat VoiceCon last year from Avaya, handsets used public
ip addresses with SSL/https for call control/rtp over the Internet, they
claimed it was easier than CTLs.



For refence the TeleWorker SRND only supports the 8XX. Wonder if they
will update it for this new ASA?

I've done LAN to LAN IPSEC tunnels in the past where one end is on a dynamic
IP address. Works well... Two small issues - you can't establish the tunnel
from the static end (because it doesn't know the IP address of the remote
end) and you have to set a wildcard IP address for the remote end, so
slightly less secure (but choose a very strong pre-shared key!).

HTH!
