IPsec VPN to an Azure with virtual WAN

This is a sample configuration of an IPsec site-to-site VPN connection between an on-premise FortiGate and an Azure virtual network (VNet). This example uses Azure virtual WAN (vWAN) to establish the VPN connection.

Azure must use IPsec v2 for this configuration. Azure uses overlapped subnet IP addresses for the IPsec interfaces.

To configure IKEv2 IPsec site-to-site VPN to an Azure VPN gateway:

1. In the Azure management portal, configure vWAN-related settings as described in Tutorial: Create a Site-to-Site connection using Azure Virtual WAN.

   If a custom BGP IP address is configured on Azure's vWAN, such as 169.254.21.6 and 169.254.21.7, you must configure the FortiGate remote-IP to the corresponding Custom BGP IP Address value. If a custom BGP IP address is not configured, FortiGate remote-IPs should point to the Default BGP IP Address value.

2. Download the VPN configuration. The following shows an example VPN configuration:

3. Configure the following on the FortiGate. Note for set proposal, you can select from several proposals.

   config vpn ipsec phase1-interface

   edit "toazure1"

   set interface "port1"

   set ike-version 2

   set proposal aes256-sha1

   set dhgrp 2

   set keylifeseconds 3600

   next

   end

   config system settings

   set allow-subnet-overlap enable

   end

   config system interface

   edit "toazure1"

   set vdom "root"

   set ip 169.254.24.25 255.255.255.255

   set type tunnel

   set remote-ip 10.1.0.7 255.255.255.255

   set snmp-index 4

   set interface "port1"

   next

   edit "toazure2"

   set vdom "root"

   set ip 169.254.24.25 255.255.255.255

   set type tunnel

   set remote-ip 10.1.0.6 255.255.255.255

   set snmp-index 5

   set interface "port1"

   next

   end

   config router bgp

   set as 7225

   set router-id 169.254.24.25

   config neighbor

   edit "10.1.0.7"

   set remote-as 65515

   next

   edit "10.1.0.6"

   set remote-as 65515

   next

   end

   config network

   edit 1

   set prefix 172.30.101.0 255.255.255.0

   next

   end

   config redistribute "connected"

   set status enable

   end

   config redistribute "rip"

   end

   config redistribute "ospf"

   end

   config redistribute "static"

   end

   config redistribute "isis"

   end

   config redistribute6 "connected"

   end

   config redistribute6 "rip"

   end

   config redistribute6 "ospf"

   end

   config redistribute6 "static"

   end

   config redistribute6 "isis"

   end

   end

4. Run diagnose vpn tunnel list. If the configuration was successful, the output should resemble the following:
