4IPsec Security Gateway Sample Application
5=========================================
6
7The IPsec Security Gateway application is an example of a "real world"
8application using DPDK cryptodev framework.
9
10Overview
11--------
12
13The application demonstrates the implementation of a Security Gateway
14(not IPsec compliant, see the Constraints section below) using DPDK based on RFC4301,
15RFC4303, RFC3602 and RFC2404.
16
17Internet Key Exchange (IKE) is not implemented, so only manual setting of
18Security Policies and Security Associations is supported.
19
20The Security Policies (SP) are implemented as ACL rules, the Security
21Associations (SA) are stored in a table and the routing is implemented
22using LPM.
23
24The application classifies the ports as *Protected* and *Unprotected*.
25Thus, traffic received on an Unprotected or Protected port is consider
26Inbound or Outbound respectively.
27
9f95a23c
TL
28The application also supports complete IPsec protocol offload to hardware
29(Look aside crypto accelerator or using ethernet device). It also support
11fdf7f2
TL
30inline ipsec processing by the supported ethernet device during transmission.
31These modes can be selected during the SA creation configuration.
32
33In case of complete protocol offload, the processing of headers(ESP and outer
34IP header) is done by the hardware and the application does not need to
35add/remove them during outbound/inbound processing.
36
37For inline offloaded outbound traffic, the application will not do the LPM
38lookup for routing, as the port on which the packet has to be forwarded will be
39part of the SA. Security parameters will be configured on that port only, and
40sending the packet on other ports could result in unencrypted packets being
41sent out.
42
7c673cae
FG
43The Path for IPsec Inbound traffic is:
44
45* Read packets from the port.
46* Classify packets between IPv4 and ESP.
47* Perform Inbound SA lookup for ESP packets based on their SPI.
11fdf7f2
TL
48* Perform Verification/Decryption (Not needed in case of inline ipsec).
49* Remove ESP and outer IP header (Not needed in case of protocol offload).
7c673cae
FG
50* Inbound SP check using ACL of decrypted packets and any other IPv4 packets.
51* Routing.
52* Write packet to port.
53
54The Path for the IPsec Outbound traffic is:
55
56* Read packets from the port.
57* Perform Outbound SP check using ACL of all IPv4 traffic.
58* Perform Outbound SA lookup for packets that need IPsec protection.
11fdf7f2
TL
59* Add ESP and outer IP header (Not needed in case protocol offload).
60* Perform Encryption/Digest (Not needed in case of inline ipsec).
7c673cae
FG
61* Routing.
62* Write packet to port.
63
64
65Constraints
66-----------
67
68* No IPv6 options headers.
69* No AH mode.
9f95a23c 70* Supported algorithms: AES-CBC, AES-CTR, AES-GCM, 3DES-CBC, HMAC-SHA1 and NULL.
7c673cae
FG
71* Each SA must be handle by a unique lcore (*1 RX queue per port*).
72* No chained mbufs.

74Compiling the Application
75-------------------------
76
11fdf7f2 77To compile the sample application see :doc:`compiling`.
7c673cae 78
9f95a23c 79The application is located in the ``ipsec-secgw`` sub-directory.
7c673cae
FG
80
81#. [Optional] Build the application for debugging:
82 This option adds some extra flags, disables compiler optimizations and
83 is verbose::
84
85 make DEBUG=1
86
87
88Running the Application
89-----------------------
90
91The application has a number of command line options::
92
93
94 ./build/ipsec-secgw [EAL options] --
11fdf7f2 95 -p PORTMASK -P -u PORTMASK -j FRAMESIZE
9f95a23c 96 -l -w REPLAY_WINOW_SIZE -e -a
7c673cae
FG
97 --config (port,queue,lcore)[,(port,queue,lcore]
98 --single-sa SAIDX
9f95a23c
TL
99 --rxoffload MASK
100 --txoffload MASK
7c673cae
FG
101 -f CONFIG_FILE_PATH
102
103Where:
104
105* ``-p PORTMASK``: Hexadecimal bitmask of ports to configure.
106
107* ``-P``: *optional*. Sets all ports to promiscuous mode so that packets are
108 accepted regardless of the packet's Ethernet MAC destination address.
109 Without this option, only packets with the Ethernet MAC destination address
110 set to the Ethernet address of the port are accepted (default is enabled).
111
112* ``-u PORTMASK``: hexadecimal bitmask of unprotected ports
113
11fdf7f2
TL
114* ``-j FRAMESIZE``: *optional*. Enables jumbo frames with the maximum size
115 specified as FRAMESIZE. If an invalid value is provided as FRAMESIZE
116 then the default value 9000 is used.
117
9f95a23c
TL
118* ``-l``: enables code-path that uses librte_ipsec.
119
120* ``-w REPLAY_WINOW_SIZE``: specifies the IPsec sequence number replay window
121 size for each Security Association (available only with librte_ipsec
122 code path).
123
124* ``-e``: enables Security Association extended sequence number processing
125 (available only with librte_ipsec code path).
126
127* ``-a``: enables Security Association sequence number atomic behavior
128 (available only with librte_ipsec code path).
129
7c673cae
FG
130* ``--config (port,queue,lcore)[,(port,queue,lcore)]``: determines which queues
131 from which ports are mapped to which cores.
132
133* ``--single-sa SAIDX``: use a single SA for outbound traffic, bypassing the SP
134 on both Inbound and Outbound. This option is meant for debugging/performance
135 purposes.
136
9f95a23c
TL
137* ``--rxoffload MASK``: RX HW offload capabilities to enable/use on this port
138 (bitmask of DEV_RX_OFFLOAD_* values). It is an optional parameter and
139 allows user to disable some of the RX HW offload capabilities.
140 By default all HW RX offloads are enabled.
141
142* ``--txoffload MASK``: TX HW offload capabilities to enable/use on this port
143 (bitmask of DEV_TX_OFFLOAD_* values). It is an optional parameter and
144 allows user to disable some of the TX HW offload capabilities.
145 By default all HW TX offloads are enabled.
146
7c673cae
FG
147* ``-f CONFIG_FILE_PATH``: the full path of text-based file containing all
148 configuration items for running the application (See Configuration file
149 syntax section below). ``-f CONFIG_FILE_PATH`` **must** be specified.
150 **ONLY** the UNIX format configuration file is accepted.
151
152
153The mapping of lcores to port/queues is similar to other l3fwd applications.
154
155For example, given the following command line::
156
157 ./build/ipsec-secgw -l 20,21 -n 4 --socket-mem 0,2048 \
11fdf7f2 158 --vdev "crypto_null" -- -p 0xf -P -u 0x3 \
7c673cae
FG
159 --config="(0,0,20),(1,0,20),(2,0,21),(3,0,21)" \
160 -f /path/to/config_file \
161
162where each options means:
163
164* The ``-l`` option enables cores 20 and 21.
165
166* The ``-n`` option sets memory 4 channels.
167
168* The ``--socket-mem`` to use 2GB on socket 1.
169
11fdf7f2 170* The ``--vdev "crypto_null"`` option creates virtual NULL cryptodev PMD.
7c673cae
FG
171
172* The ``-p`` option enables ports (detected) 0, 1, 2 and 3.
173
174* The ``-P`` option enables promiscuous mode.
175
176* The ``-u`` option sets ports 1 and 2 as unprotected, leaving 2 and 3 as protected.
177
178* The ``--config`` option enables one queue per port with the following mapping:
179
180 +----------+-----------+-----------+---------------------------------------+
181 | **Port** | **Queue** | **lcore** | **Description** |
182 | | | | |
183 +----------+-----------+-----------+---------------------------------------+
184 | 0 | 0 | 20 | Map queue 0 from port 0 to lcore 20. |
185 | | | | |
186 +----------+-----------+-----------+---------------------------------------+
187 | 1 | 0 | 20 | Map queue 0 from port 1 to lcore 20. |
188 | | | | |
189 +----------+-----------+-----------+---------------------------------------+
190 | 2 | 0 | 21 | Map queue 0 from port 2 to lcore 21. |
191 | | | | |
192 +----------+-----------+-----------+---------------------------------------+
193 | 3 | 0 | 21 | Map queue 0 from port 3 to lcore 21. |
194 | | | | |
195 +----------+-----------+-----------+---------------------------------------+
196
197* The ``-f /path/to/config_file`` option enables the application read and
198 parse the configuration file specified, and configures the application
199 with a given set of SP, SA and Routing entries accordingly. The syntax of
200 the configuration file will be explained below in more detail. Please
201 **note** the parser only accepts UNIX format text file. Other formats
202 such as DOS/MAC format will cause a parse error.
203
204Refer to the *DPDK Getting Started Guide* for general information on running
205applications and the Environment Abstraction Layer (EAL) options.
206
207The application would do a best effort to "map" crypto devices to cores, with
208hardware devices having priority. Basically, hardware devices if present would
209be assigned to a core before software ones.
210This means that if the application is using a single core and both hardware
211and software crypto devices are detected, hardware devices will be used.
212
213A way to achieve the case where you want to force the use of virtual crypto
214devices is to whitelist the Ethernet devices needed and therefore implicitly
215blacklisting all hardware crypto devices.
216
217For example, something like the following command line:
218
219.. code-block:: console
220
221 ./build/ipsec-secgw -l 20,21 -n 4 --socket-mem 0,2048 \
222 -w 81:00.0 -w 81:00.1 -w 81:00.2 -w 81:00.3 \
11fdf7f2 223 --vdev "crypto_aesni_mb" --vdev "crypto_null" \
7c673cae
FG
224 -- \
225 -p 0xf -P -u 0x3 --config="(0,0,20),(1,0,20),(2,0,21),(3,0,21)" \
226 -f sample.cfg

229Configurations
230--------------
231
232The following sections provide the syntax of configurations to initialize
9f95a23c 233your SP, SA, Routing and Neighbour tables.
7c673cae
FG
234Configurations shall be specified in the configuration file to be passed to
235the application. The file is then parsed by the application. The successful
236parsing will result in the appropriate rules being applied to the tables
237accordingly.
238
239
240Configuration File Syntax
9f95a23c 241~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
7c673cae
FG
242
243As mention in the overview, the Security Policies are ACL rules.
244The application parsers the rules specified in the configuration file and
245passes them to the ACL table, and replicates them per socket in use.
246
247Following are the configuration file syntax.
248
249General rule syntax
250^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
251
252The parse treats one line in the configuration file as one configuration
253item (unless the line concatenation symbol exists). Every configuration
9f95a23c
TL
254item shall follow the syntax of either SP, SA, Routing or Neighbour
255rules specified below.
7c673cae
FG
256
257The configuration parser supports the following special symbols:
258
259 * Comment symbol **#**. Any character from this symbol to the end of
260 line is treated as comment and will not be parsed.
261
262 * Line concatenation symbol **\\**. This symbol shall be placed in the end
263 of the line to be concatenated to the line below. Multiple lines'
264 concatenation is supported.

689Test directory
690--------------
691
692The test directory contains scripts for testing the various encryption
693algorithms.
694
695The purpose of the scripts is to automate ipsec-secgw testing
696using another system running linux as a DUT.
697
698The user must setup the following environment variables:
699
700* ``SGW_PATH``: path to the ipsec-secgw binary to test.
701
702* ``REMOTE_HOST``: IP address/hostname of the DUT.
703
704* ``REMOTE_IFACE``: interface name for the test-port on the DUT.
705
706* ``ETH_DEV``: ethernet device to be used on the SUT by DPDK ('-w <pci-id>')
707
708Also the user can optionally setup:
709
710* ``SGW_LCORE``: lcore to run ipsec-secgw on (default value is 0)
711
712* ``CRYPTO_DEV``: crypto device to be used ('-w <pci-id>'). If none specified
713 appropriate vdevs will be created by the script
714
715Note that most of the tests require the appropriate crypto PMD/device to be
716available.
717
718Server configuration
719~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
720
721Two servers are required for the tests, SUT and DUT.
722
723Make sure the user from the SUT can ssh to the DUT without entering the password.
724To enable this feature keys must be setup on the DUT.
725
726``ssh-keygen`` will make a private & public key pair on the SUT.
727
728``ssh-copy-id`` <user name>@<target host name> on the SUT will copy the public
729key to the DUT. It will ask for credentials so that it can upload the public key.
730
731The SUT and DUT are connected through at least 2 NIC ports.
732
733One NIC port is expected to be managed by linux on both machines and will be
734used as a control path.
735
736The second NIC port (test-port) should be bound to DPDK on the SUT, and should
737be managed by linux on the DUT.
738
739The script starts ``ipsec-secgw`` with 2 NIC devices: ``test-port`` and
740``tap vdev``.
741
742It then configures the local tap interface and the remote interface and IPsec
743policies in the following way:
744
745Traffic going over the test-port in both directions has to be protected by IPsec.
746
747Traffic going over the TAP port in both directions does not have to be protected.
748
749i.e:
750
751DUT OS(NIC1)--(IPsec)-->(NIC1)ipsec-secgw(TAP)--(plain)-->(TAP)SUT OS
752
753SUT OS(TAP)--(plain)-->(TAP)psec-secgw(NIC1)--(IPsec)-->(NIC1)DUT OS
754
755It then tries to perform some data transfer using the scheme described above.
756
