Enabling Acl Checking For De-Encapsulated Packets; Configuring The Ipsec Anti-Replay Function - H3C S5830V2 Security Configuration Manual

Step
3. Apply an IPsec policy to the
interface.

Enabling ACL checking for de-encapsulated packets

This feature uses the ACL in the IPsec policy to match the IP packets that are de-encapsulated from
incoming IPsec packets in tunnel mode, and it discards the IP packets that fail to match the ACL to avoid
attacks using forged packets.
To enable ACL checking for de-encapsulated packets:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enable ACL checking for
de-encapsulated packets.

Configuring the IPsec anti-replay function

The IPsec anti-replay function protects networks against anti-replay attacks by using a sliding window
mechanism called anti-replay window. This function checks the sequence number of each received IPsec
packet against the current IPsec packet sequence number range of the sliding window. If the sequence
number is not in the current sequence number range, the packet is considered a replayed packet and is
discarded.
IPsec packet de-encapsulation involves complicated calculation. De-encapsulation of replayed packets is
not required, and the de-encapsulation process consumes large amounts of resources and degrades
performance, resulting in DoS. IPsec anti-replay can check and discard replayed packets before
de-encapsulation.
In some situations, service data packets are received in a different order than their original order. The
IPsec anti-replay function drops them as replayed packets, which impacts communications. If this
happens, disable IPsec anti-replay checking or adjust the size of the anti-replay window as required.
IPsec anti-replay does not affect manually created IPsec SAs. According to the IPsec protocol, only IPsec
SAs negotiated by IKE support anti-replay checking.

Remarks
By default, no IPsec policy is
applied to the interface.
An interface can reference only
one IPsec policy.
An IKE-mode IPsec policy can be
applied to multiple interfaces, and
a manual IPsec policy can be
applied to only one interface.
Remarks
N/A
By default, this feature is enabled.
