<h1 class="topictitle1">Scenario: Basic business to business connection</h1>
<div><p>In this scenario, your company wants to establish a VPN between
a client workstation in your manufacturing division and a client workstation
in the supply department of your business partner.</p>
<div class="section"><h4 class="sectionscenariobar">Situation</h4><p>Many
companies use frame relay or leased lines to provide secure communications
with their business partners, subsidiaries, and vendors. Unfortunately, these
solutions are often expensive and geographically limiting. VPN offers an alternative
for companies who want private, cost-effective communications.</p>
<p>Suppose
you are a major parts supplier to a manufacturer. Since it is critical that
you have the specific parts and quantities at the exact time required by the
manufacturing firm, you always need to be aware of the manufacturer's inventory
status and production schedules. Perhaps you handle this interaction manually
today, and find it time consuming, expensive and even inaccurate at times.
You want to find an easier, faster, and more effective way to communicate
with your manufacturing company. However, given the confidentiality and time-sensitive
nature of the information you exchange, the manufacturer does not want to
publish it on its corporate Web site or distribute it monthly in an external
report. By exploiting the public Internet, you can easily establish a virtual
private network (VPN) to meet the needs of both companies.</p>
</div>
<div class="section" id="rzajabpscenario__objective"><a name="rzajabpscenario__objective"><!-- --></a><h4 class="sectionscenariobar">Objectives</h4><p>In
this scenario, MyCo wants to establish a VPN between a host in its parts division
and a host in the manufacturing department of one their business partners,TheirCo.</p>
<p>Because
the information these two companies share is highly confidential, it must
be protected while it travels across the Internet. In addition, data must
not flow in the clear within either company's networks because each network
considers the other untrusted. In other words, both companies require end-to-end
authentication, integrity, and encryption.</p>
<div class="important"><span class="importanttitle">Important:</span> The intent
of this scenario is to introduce, by example, a simple host-to-host VPN configuration.
In a typical network environment, you will also need to consider firewall
configuration, IP addressing requirements, and routing, among others.</div>
</div>
<div class="section" id="rzajabpscenario__scendetails"><a name="rzajabpscenario__scendetails"><!-- --></a><h4 class="sectionscenariobar">Details</h4><p>The
following figure illustrates the network characteristics of MyCo and TheirCo:</p>
<br /><img src="rzaja509.gif" alt="business to business network diagram" /><br /><p><strong>MyCo Supply Network</strong></p>
<ul><li>iSeries-A runs on <span class="keyword">OS/400<sup>®</sup></span> Version
5 Release 2 (V5R2) or later.</li>
<li>iSeries-A has an IP address of 10.6.1.1. This is the connection endpoint,
as well as the data endpoint. That is, iSeries-A performs IKE negotiations
and applies IPSec to incoming and outgoing IP datagrams and is also the source
and destination for data that flows through the VPN.</li>
<li>iSeries-A is in subnet 10.6.0.0 with mask 255.255.0.0</li>
<li>Only iSeries-A can initiate the connection with iSeries-C.</li>
</ul>

<ul><li>iSeries-C runs on <span class="keyword">OS/400</span> Version

<li>iSeries-C has an IP address of 10.196.8.6. This is the connection endpoint,
as well as the data endpoint. That is, iSeries-A performs IKE negotiations
and applies IPSec to incoming and outgoing IP datagrams and is also the source
and destination for data that flows through the VPN.</li>
<li>iSeries-C is in subnet 10.196.8.0 with mask 255.255.255.0</li>

tasks</h4><p>You must complete each of these tasks to configure the business

<div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> Before you start
these tasks verify the TCP/IP routing to ensure that the two gateway servers
can communicate with each other across the Internet. This ensures that hosts
on each subnet route properly to their respective gateway for access to the
remote subnet.</div>
