[strongSwan] IPSec Configuration - IKEv1 with PFS

[Newton, Benjamin David]

I am trying to set up a site-to-site VPN using StrongSwan.  The requirements for the VPN are:


? Encapsulation Security Payload (ESP)
? Encryption: AES-256
? Authentication: SHA-1
? IPSec / IKE Authentication: Pre-shared secret and digital certificate
? IKE: Version 1
? IKE phase 1: Diffie-Hellman group 5
? Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS): Diffie-Hellman group 1
? Pre-shared secret key


I have the following as a start in my ipsec.conf file


conn %default
     ikelifetime=60m
     keylife=20m
     rekeymargin=3m
     keyingtries=1
     keyexchange=ikev1
     ike=aes256-sha1-modp1536
     esp=aes256-sha1-modp1536
     authby=secret



However, I don't know how to specify the Perfect Forward Secrecy (PFS) as DH group 1.


I'm also uncertain if the other entries are correct for the requirements above.   (Do I need to specify the digital certificate?) (Do I need both an ike and esp line?)


Any suggestions, or help would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks,

  Ben Newton
