meraki-ipsec-connect
Script to help with ipsec/l2tp connection, for use with Cisco Meraki devices.
Setup
Install strongswan and xl2tpd. Create the files username, password, and hostname in ~/.config/meraki-vpn/default these files should contain your username, password and the Meraki hostname that you connect to. Create a file routes in that directory that contain the CIDRs that are routed via the VPN. One per line.
apt-get install -y strongswan xl2tpd mkdir -p ~/.config/meraki-vpn/default echo "martinslabber" > ~/.config/meraki-vpn/default/username echo "s3cr3t" > ~/.config/meraki-vpn/default/password echo "example-wapqikrk2z.dynamic-m.com" > ~/.config/meraki-vpn/default/hostname echo "192.168.34.0/24" > ~/.config/meraki-vpn/default/routes
The shared connection secret is also stored in the directory ~/.config/meraki-vpn/default. This secret is stored in the file named ipsec.secret and should have the following format. Replace AAAA with the shared secret. Keep the "'s.
: PSK "AAAA"
