Transport and Tunnel Mode IPSec Encapsulation
14.3.1 Transport Mode
Transport
mode is used to protect upper layer protocols and only affects the data in the IP
packet. In
Transport
mode, the IP packet contains the security protocol (
AH
or
ESP
) located
after the original IP header and options, but before any upper layer protocols contained in the
packet (such as TCP and UDP).
With
ESP,
protection is applied only to the upper layer protocols contained in the packet. The
IP header information and options are not used in the authentication process. Therefore, the
originating IP address cannot be verified for integrity against the data.
With the use of
AH
as the security protocol, protection is extended forward into the IP header
to verify the integrity of the entire packet by use of portions of the original IP header in the
hashing process.
14.3.2 Tunnel Mode
Tunnel
mode encapsulates the entire IP packet to transmit it securely. A
Tunnel
mode is
required for gateway services to provide access to internal systems.
Tunnel
mode is
fundamentally an IP tunnel with authentication and encryption. This is the most common
mode of operation.
Tunnel
mode is required for gateway to gateway and host to gateway
communications.
Tunnel
mode communications have two sets of IP headers:
•
Outside header
: The outside IP header contains the destination IP address of the VPN
gateway.
•
Inside header
: The inside IP header contains the destination IP address of the final
system behind the VPN gateway. The security protocol appears after the outer IP header
and before the inside IP header.
