Re: IPSEC on RHEL
I am aware of the basic IPSEC set up (host to host), I am more intrested in setting up IPSEC from a linux host via firewall, and also to a Juniper and also the cases where it needs to be terminated. So the usual stuff about linux to linux is not applicable here! Please let me know if someone has more ideas/links on this.
Thanks
Mike.

Re: IPSEC on RHEL
Do you understand IPSEC at the conceptual level? Do you know what Phase 1 and Phase 2 are, and can you determine what kind of IPSEC security proposals you wish to use/accept? Do you want to use IPSEC in tunnel or transport mode?
At least on my Debian system, I have three separate IPSEC suites available: isakmpd, openswan and racoon. Do you have any preferences on them?
Google is your friend: I googled for "linux ipsec interoperability juniper" and even the first hit looked like it might be useful to you.
If you want to configure a firewall to pass through IPSEC traffic, you just need to allow its component protocols: for basic IPSEC, you need port 500/UDP for the ISAKMP key management protocol, and protocol numbers 50 (and maybe 51) for the payload. If you need NAT traversal (NAT-T), port 4500/UDP is required.
To adequately answer an open question like this, a day-long lecture might be needed - and that is obviously hard to provide in a discussion forum. You might get better answers if you can nail down your requirements with more specificity. Otherwise, I must recommend that you check the IT training providers and/or universities near you for IPSEC training courses.
