strongSwan-base chef cookbook

Overview

strongSwan-base and it's accompanying suite of dependant and recommended cookbooks is
the new direction we have decided upon for the future of our strongSwan offering. This
cookbook is intended to allow the creation of a fully-functional VPN endpoint within
an Amazon VPC.

Some Important Notes

When reading/adjusting any StrongSwan configurations, remember these important words:

left is local to the machine it's stated on; right is remote in the same manner

So, on the server side, left is local to the server and on the client side, left is local to
that client. Remembering this will save you many a headache as you navigate the tangled web
of information available for setting up a properly secured VPN with optimal compatibility.
The strongSwan wiki
is an excellent source of data, however, I wouldn't let that keep me from checking for any other
available information on configuring my particular use case.

Requirements

All code from the original strongswan cookbook has been split out into three seperate
cookbooks to better follow best practices. The three cookbooks included in this new
suite have been (re)named as follows:

  • required to build a minimally functional VPN endpoint
    • strongSwan-base - sets up a basic StrongSwan server and accompanying networks.
    • strongSwan-scenarios - one idempotent location for all available and active scenarios.
  • recommended if you want full functionality of your VPN
    • strongSwan-pki - allows generation of a simplyCA server and certificate/key generation, distribution and revocation.
