The sstp-test-nopty is a pppd script you need to create in /etc/ppp/peers, and you can clone the example sstp-test above; but you must omit the pty statement in the peers configuration. SSTP is only supported on Windows devices. Azure supports all versions of Windows that have SSTP (Windows 7 and later). SSTP supports up to 128 concurrent connections only regardless of the gateway SKU. IKEv2 VPN, a standards-based IPsec VPN solution. IKEv2 VPN can be used to connect from Mac devices (OSX versions 10.11 and above). It has various VPN protocols such as PPTP, SoftEther, SSTP, L2TP/IPsec, OpenVPN and IKEv2 It comes with AES 256-bit encryption with 8192-bit keys. Hideme works on MacOS, Windows, iOS, Android, Routers, Linux, Smart TVs, and Consoles. This is a sstp GUI client for Mac, use a modified sstp-client as backend which support server-name TLS extension. Some servers(ex:.vpnazure.net) require server-name, otherwise the sstp connection will be rejected. The reason for being the best bet is that this is the only one (to my knowledge) SSTP client for Mac.

Summary

Standards:SSTP specification
Package:ppp

Secure Socket Tunneling Protocol (SSTP) transports a PPP tunnel over a TLS channel. The use of TLS over TCP port 443 allows SSTP to pass through virtually all firewalls and proxy servers.

SSTP connection mechanism

• TCP connection is established from client to server (by default on port 443);
• SSL validates server certificate. If certificate is valid connection is established otherwise connection is torn down. (But see note below)
• The client sends SSTP control packets within the HTTPS session which establishes the SSTP state machine on both sides.
• PPP negotiation over SSTP. Client authenticates to the server and binds IP addresses to SSTP interface
• SSTP tunnel is now established and packet encapsulation can begin.

Note: Starting from v5.0beta2 SSTP does not require certificates to operate and can use any available authentication type. This feature will work only between two MikroTik routers, as it is not in accordance with Microsoft standard. Otherwise to establish secure tunnels mschap authentication and client/server certificates from the same chain should be used. Read more>>

Currently, SSTP clients exist in Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, Linux and RouterOS.

Note: While connecting to SSTP server, Windows does CRL (certificate revocation list) checking on server certificate which can introduce a significant delay to complete a connection or even prevent the user from accessing the SSTP server at all if Windows is unable to access CRL distribution point! Custom generated CA which does not include CRLs can be used to minimize connection delays and certificate costs (signed certificates with known CA usually are not for free), but this custom CA must be imported into each Windows client individually. It is possible to disable CRL check in Windows registry, but it is supported only by Windows Server 2008 and Windows 7 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/947054

Certificates

Note: Starting from RouterOS v6rc10 SSTP respects CRL

To set up a secure SSTP tunnel, certificates are required. On the server, authentication is done only by username and password, but on the client - the server is authenticated using a server certificate. It is also used by the client to cryptographically bind SSL and PPP authentication, meaning - the clients sends a special value over SSTP connection to the server, this value is derived from the key data that is generated during PPP authentication and server certificate, this allows the server to check if both channels are secure.

If SSTP clients are Windows PCs then only way to set up a secure SSTP tunnel when using self-signed certificate is by importing the 'server' certificate on SSTP server and on the Windows PC adding CA certificate in trusted root.

Note: If your server certificate is issued by a CA which is already known by Windows, then the Windows client will work without any additional certificates.

Warning: RSA Key length must be at least 472 bits if certificate is used by SSTP. Shorter keys are considered as security threats.

Similar configuration on RouterOS client would be to import the CA certificate and enabling verify-server-certificate option. In this scenario Man-in-the-Middle attacks are not possible.

Between two Mikrotik routers it is also possible to set up an insecure tunnel by not using certificates at all. In this case data going through SSTP tunnel is using anonymous DH and Man-in-the-Middle attacks are easily accomplished. This scenario is not compatible with Windows clients.

It is also possible to make a secure SSTP tunnel by adding additional authorization with a client certificate. Configuration requirements are:

• certificates on both server and client
• verification options enabled on server and client

This scenario is also not possible with Windows clients, because there is no way to set up client certificate on Windows.

Certificate error messages

When ssl handshake fails, you will see one of the following certificate errors:

• certificate is not yet valid - notBefore certificate date is after the current time.
• certificate has expired - notAfter certificate expiry date is before the current time.
• invalid certificate purpose - the supplied certificate cannot be used for the specified purpose.
• self signed certificate in chain - the certificate chain could be built up using the untrusted certificates but the root could not be found locally.
• unable to get issuer certificate locally - CA certificate is not imported locally.
• server's IP address does not match certificate - server address verification is enabled, but address provided in certificate does not match server's address.

Hostname verification

Server certificate verification is enabled on SSTP client, additionally if IP addresses or DNS name found in certificate's subjectAltName or common-name then issuer CN will be compared to the real servers address.v5.7 adds new parameter verify-server-address-from-certificate to disable/enable hostname verification.

SSTP Client

Sub-menu:/interface sstp-client

Properties

Quick example

This example demonstrates how to set up SSTP client with username 'sstp-test', password '123' and server 10.1.101.1

SSTP Server

Sub-menu:/interface sstp-server

This sub-menu shows interfaces for each connected SSTP client.

An interface is created for each tunnel established to the given server. There are two types of interfaces in SSTP server's configuration

• Static interfaces are added administratively if there is a need to reference the particular interface name (in firewall rules or elsewhere) created for the particular user.
• Dynamic interfaces are added to this list automatically whenever a user is connected and its username does not match any existing static entry (or in case the entry is active already, as there can not be two separate tunnel interfaces referenced by the same name).

Dynamic interfaces appear when a user connects and disappear once the user disconnects, so it is impossible to reference the tunnel created for that use in router configuration (for example, in firewall), so if you need a persistent rules for that user, create a static entry for him/her. Otherwise it is safe to use dynamic configuration.

Note: in both cases PPP users must be configured properly - static entries do not replace PPP configuration.

Server configuration

Sub-menu:/interface sstp-server server

Properties:

Warning: It is very important that the date on the router is within the range of the certificate's date of expiration. To overcome any certificate verification problems, enable NTP date synchronization on both server and client.

Monitoring

Monitor command can be used to monitor status of the tunnel on both client and server.

Application Examples

Connecting Remote Client

The following example shows how to connect a computer to a remote office network over secure SSTP encrypted tunnel giving that computer an IP address from the same network as the remote office has (without the need for bridging over EoIP tunnels)

Consider following setup:

Office router is connected to internet through ether1. Workstations are connected to ether2.Laptop is connected to the internet and can reach Office router's public IP (in our example it is 192.168.80.1).

Before you begin to configure SSTP you need to create a server certificate and import it into the router (instructions here).

Now it is time to create a user:

Notice that SSTP local address is the same as the router's address on the local interface and the remote address is from the same range as the local network (10.1.101.0/24).

Next step is to enable SSTP server and SSTP client on the laptop:

Notice that authentication is set to mschap. These are the only authentication options that are valid to establish a secure tunnel.

SSTP client from the laptop should connect to routers public IP which in our example is 192.168.80.1.

Please, consult the respective manual on how to set up a SSTP client with the software you are using. If you set up SSTP client on Windows and self-signed certificates are used, then CA certificate should be added to trusted root.

Note: Currently, SSTP is only fully supported on recent Windows OS releases such as Vista SP1, Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 2008 etc. With other OS's such as Linux, results cannot be guaranteed.

To verify if SSTP client is connected

At this point (when SSTP client is successfully connected) if you try to ping any workstation from the laptop, ping will time out, because Laptop is unable to get ARPs from workstations. Solution is to set up proxy-arp on local interface

After proxy-arp is enabled client can successfully reach all workstations in the local network behind the router.

Site-to-Site SSTP

The following is an example of connecting two Intranets using SSTP tunnel over the Internet.

Consider following setup:

Office and Home routers are connected to internet through ether1, workstations and laptops are connected to ether2.In this example both local networks are routed through SSTP client, thus they are not in the same broadcast domain. To overcome this problem as with any other ppp tunnel, SSTP also supports BCP which allows it to bridge SSTP tunnel with a local interface.

First step is to create a user:

Notice that we set up SSTP to add a route whenever the client connects. If this option is not set, then you will need a static routing configuration on the server to route traffic between sites through the SSTP tunnel.

Now we need to upload and import CA and server/client certificates. Assuming that the files are already uploaded use following commands:

Edit names to something more meaningful:

Do the same on client side, but instead of server's certificate import client's certificate.

Next step is to enable SSTP server on the office router:

Now configure SSTP client on the Home router:

Sstap Macos

Now we need to add static route on Home router to reach local network behind Office router:

After tunnel is established you should be able to ping remote network.

Troubleshooting

Easy Sstp For Mac

After Windows 7 upgrade SSTP is unable to connect (windows error 631) ?

MS Patch KB2585542 changes cypher to RC4 which was not supported on RouterOS. Starting from RouterOS v5.13 RC4 is the preferred cipher and AES will be used only if peer does not advertise RC4.

I get following error when trying to connect Windows 7 client. Error 0x80070320 The oplock that was associated with this handle is now associated with a different handle.

Disable verify-client-certificate option on the server.

Sstp For Mac

I get following error 'Encryption negotiation rejected”.

Disable use-encryption option in ppp profile.
