Firewall Configuration; Openvpn Access Server - Brocade Communications Systems 5600 Reference Manual

Firewall configuration

The firewall configuration for an OpenVPN tunnel interface is the same as the configuration for other
types of interfaces. Here is an example.
To configure firewall on V1, perform the following steps in configuration mode.
TABLE 9 V1 OpenVPN firewall configuration
Step
Create the vtun0 configuration node.
Enter configuration commands.
Set the firewall rule for inbound traffic on the vtun0 interface.
Enter configuration commands.
Commit the change.
Show the OpenVPN configuration.
For more information on configuring firewall for interfaces, see the firewall chapter in Brocade 5600
vRouter Firewall Reference Guide.

OpenVPN access server

Another OpenVPN scenario involves connecting to OpenVPN Access Server and using the
configuration information it provides to establish an OpenVPN tunnel to an OpenVPN server. The
configuration for this scenario is very simple because the OpenVPN Access Server provides all the
necessary VPN configuration information to the connecting host (the Brocade vRouter in this case). The
following figure shows a configuration that uses OpenVPN Access Server.
