Semplificare l’impostazione della VPN: Configurare una VPN con PowerShell

Punti chiave

  • Configurare una VPN in modo automatico: Lo script automatizza la creazione di connessioni VPN in Windows, migliorando l’efficienza.
  • Supporta diversi tipi di VPN: Compatibile con L2TP, SSTP, IKEV2 e seleziona automaticamente i tipi di VPN.
  • Flessibilità nella configurazione: Può estrarre le impostazioni VPN dalla documentazione NinjaOne o da campi personalizzati per configurazioni su misura.
  • Sicurezza migliorata: Standardizza le configurazioni VPN tra i dispositivi, riducendo il rischio di configurazioni errate.
  • Gestione dei collegamenti e delle icone: Crea automaticamente i collegamenti al desktop e gestisce le icone dei collegamenti VPN.
  • Modifiche del registro di Windows: Adatta le impostazioni come l’incapsulamento UDP nel registro di Windows alle esigenze specifiche della VPN.
  • Capacità di sovrascrittura: Offre l’opzione di sovrascrivere le connessioni VPN esistenti con lo stesso nome.
  • Testa prima di un utilizzo diffuso: Si consiglia di testare lo script in un ambiente controllato prima dell’applicazione su larga scala.
  • Sono necessari aggiornamenti regolari: È necessario aggiornare lo script per garantire la compatibilità con gli ultimi standard VPN e gli aggiornamenti di Windows.
  • Gestione sicura degli script: È importante memorizzare lo script e le sue credenziali in modo sicuro per evitare accessi non autorizzati.
  • Integrazione con NinjaOne: Lo script integra la piattaforma NinjaOne, semplificando la gestione delle VPN nelle infrastrutture IT.

L’integrazione delle reti private virtuali (VPN) in ambienti aziendali e IT è essenziale per mantenere un accesso sicuro e remoto alle risorse dell’organizzazione. Con la crescente adozione da parte delle aziende di policy per il lavoro da remoto e di servizi basati sul cloud, la capacità di configurare in modo rapido e sicuro le connessioni VPN diventa fondamentale. In questo senso, gli script di automazione per configurare una VPN giocano un ruolo fondamentale.

Background

Lo script PowerShell fornito è stato progettato per automatizzare il processo di configurazione di una connessione VPN in ambienti Windows. Si rivolge ai professionisti IT e ai fornitori di servizi gestiti (MSP) che configurano regolarmente VPN su numerosi dispositivi. Questo script per configurare una VPN non solo fa risparmiare tempo, ma garantisce anche la coerenza e riduce la probabilità di errori manuali nelle configurazioni VPN.

Lo script per configurare una VPN:

#Requires -Version 5.1

<#
.SYNOPSIS
    Creates a VPN using the built-in Windows VPN client, with configuration options from Ninja Documentation or Device Custom Fields.
.DESCRIPTION
    This script will create a VPN using the built-in Windows VPN client. It will not create PPTP or "No Encryption" VPNs. 
    It can pull all the necessary VPN information from a Ninja Document or custom field you specify. 
    You can override the Documentation fields with parameters or only use parameters if you would like.

.SYNOPSIS
    Creates a VPN using the built-in Windows VPN client, with configuration options from Ninja Documentation or Device Custom Fields.
.DESCRIPTION
    This script will create a VPN using the built-in Windows VPN client. It will not create PPTP or "No Encryption" VPNs. 
    It can pull all the necessary VPN information from a Ninja Document or custom field you specify. 
    You can override the Documentation fields with parameters or only use parameters if you would like.

    For more information on Ninja Documentation: https://ninjarmm.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360061218431-Documentation

PARAMETER: -Name "Contoso VPN"
    The name of the VPN you would like to create

PARAMETER: -Server "replace.me"
    The endpoint/server the VPN will try to establish a connection with.

PARAMETER: -PreSharedKey "ReplaceWithPreSharedKey"
    The Pre-Shared Key for the VPN.

PARAMETER: -TunnelType "L2TP"
    The Type of VPN ex. L2TP, SSTP, IKEV2, Automatic

PARAMETER: -AuthMethod "PAP,CHAP"
    The authentication methods supported by the VPN separated by commas.

PARAMETER: -EncryptionLevel "Required"
    The Encryption level used by the VPN.

PARAMETER: -DNSSuffix "contoso.local"
    The DNS Suffix used by the connection.

PARAMETER: -RememberCreds
    Whether or not the VPN should remember the previously used credentials for future connections.

Analisi dettagliata

Lo script opera creando una connessione VPN utilizzando il client VPN integrato di Windows. Supporta diversi tipi di VPN (come L2TP, SSTP, IKEV2) e metodi di autenticazione. Lo script può recuperare i dettagli della configurazione VPN da un documento NinjaOne o da campi personalizzati, offrendo flessibilità nella distribuzione.

Funzionalità chiave:

  • Configurazione VPN: Configura la VPN con opzioni per il tipo di tunnel, i metodi di autenticazione, i livelli di crittografia e altro ancora.
  • Campi personalizzati e documentazione: Consente di estrarre le informazioni VPN da NinjaOne Documentation o da campi personalizzati specifici del dispositivo.
  • Gestione delle icone: Lo script per configurare una VPN può scaricare un’immagine per l’icona del collegamento VPN e anche convertirla nel formato richiesto.
  • Creazione di collegamenti: È in grado di creare un collegamento sul desktop per facilitare l’accesso alla VPN.
  • Modifica del registro: Per alcune VPN, modifica il registro di Windows per abilitare l’incapsulamento UDP.
  • Opzione di sovrascrittura: Può sovrascrivere una connessione VPN esistente con lo stesso nome.

Casi d’uso potenziali
