Additional Features
We've extended support for the following features to these platforms.
-
Configure concurrent connections (SRX Series devices and vSRX running iked). Configure the number of concurrent connections that the group profile supports using the
connections-limit
configuration statement at the[edit security ike gateway gateway-name dynamic]
hierarchy level. We support this configuration for both IKEv1 and IKEv2. This configuration is applicable only to AutoVPN, ADVPN, dynamic endpoint, and remote access (preshared-key and PKI-based tunnels).There are no restrictions on the number of connections accepted if you haven't configured the
connections-limit
option.[See dynamic (Security)].
-
DHCP security (EX9200, MX240, MX480, MX960, MX2010, MX2020). MPC10E line cards support the following DHCP security features:
- DHCP snooping with Option 82.
- DHCPv6 snooping with Option 16, Option 18, Option 37, and Option 79.
- Lightweight DHCPv6 Relay Agent.
[See DHCP Snooping.]
-
Dynamic routing protocols (MX240, MX480, and MX960 with MX-SPC3, SRX5000 line of devices with SPC3 card and vSRX running iked). We support the exchange of dynamic routing information through IPsec VPN tunnels. You can now enable the dynamic routing protocol, such as OSPF, BGP, BFD, PIM, and RIP on a st0 interface of an IPsec VPN tunnel.
This feature is supported only if the
junos-ike
package is installed in your device. -
Enhancements to increase traffic selector flexibility (MX240, MX480, and MX960 with MX-SPC3). You can do the following to add flexibility to your traffic selectors in different deployment scenarios:
- Configure the routing metric for a traffic selector.
- Define the source port range, destination port range, and protocol for a traffic selector.
- Define multiple terms within a traffic selector, instead of creating multiple traffic selectors (or child security associations or SAs) for a VPN. Each term comprises the local and remote IP prefixes, the source and destination port ranges, and the protocol identifier. You can use these parameters in a single IPsec SA negotiation. In earlier Junos OS releases, you configure each traffic selector with one set of local and remote IP prefixes to be used in an IPsec SA negotiation with a peer.
This feature is supported only if the
junos-ike
package is installed in your device.We recommend that you configure the same metric value if you define multiple traffic selectors under the same
[edit security ipsec vpn vpn_name]
hierarchy with the same value forremote-ip ip-address/netmask
. If you configure different metric values, then the metric value of the st0 route installed will be the same as that for the traffic selector that is negotiated or installed first.[See traffic-selector and show security ipsec security-associations detail.]
