openfortivpn-haproxy

This docker image proxies traffic across a Fortinet VPN to remote host using openfortivpn and haproxy socat.

Create docker image

1. Clone this repository

   git clone https://github.com/jeffre/openfortivpn-haproxy

2. Build the image

   docker build ./openfortivpn-haproxy \
       -t "jeffre/openfortivpn-haproxy:latest"

   Alternatively, you may specify the openfortivpn version using --build-arg

   docker build ./openfortivpn-haproxy \
       -t "jeffre/openfortivpn-haproxy:v1.17.1" \
       --build-arg OPENFORTIVPN_VERSION=v1.17.1

Deploy docker container

Configure forwarded ports

To configure forwarded ports use environment variables with names that start with PORT_FORWARD (eg PORT_FORWARD_SSH, PORT_FORWARD_RDP). Each must contain a special string obeying one of the following syntaxes:

• REMOTE_HOST:REMOTE_PORT
• LOCAL_PORT:REMOTE_HOST:REMOTE_PORT
• PROTOCOL:LOCAL_PORT:REMOTE_HOST:REMOTE_PORT

Variable	Definition
REMOTE_HOST	Public hostname or ip address. Note: The hostname's dns will be resolved externally from the VPN.
REMOTE_PORT	integer between 1-65535.
LOCAL_PORT	integer between 1-65535. If omitted, port 1111 is used.
PROTOCOL	Either tcp (default) or udp

Configure openfortivpn

Openfortivpn configuration can be provided as command-line arguments to this image, as a mounted config file, or a combination of both. For details about openfortivpn configuration run

docker run --rm jeffre/openfortivpn-haproxy -h

Examples

Expose a remote RDP service

docker run --rm -it \
    --device=/dev/ppp \
    --cap-add=NET_ADMIN \
    -p 127.0.0.1:3389:3389 \
    -e PORT_FORWARD="3389:10.0.0.1:3389" \
    jeffre/openfortivpn-haproxy:latest \
    fortinet.example.com:8443 \
    --username=foo \
    --password=bar \
    --otp=123456

Once connected, rdp://127.0.0.1 will be accessible.

Expose 2 remote services (RDP, SSH)

docker run --rm -it \
    --device=/dev/ppp \
    --cap-add=NET_ADMIN \
    -p 127.0.0.1:3389:1111 \
    -e PORT_FORWARD1="1111:10.0.0.1:3389" \
    -p 127.0.0.1:2222:2222 \
    -e PORT_FORWARD2="2222:10.0.0.2:22" \
    jeffre/openfortivpn-haproxy:latest \
    fortinet.example.com:8443 \
    --username=foo \
    --password=bar \
    --otp=123456

Once connected, rdp://localhost:1111 and ssh://localhost:2222 will both be accessible.

Use both a config file and command-line parameters for openfortivpn

Contents of ./config:

host = fortinet.example.com
port = 8443
username = foo
password = bar

docker run --rm -it \
    --device=/dev/ppp \
    --cap-add=NET_ADMIN \
    -p "1111:1111" \
    -e PORT_FORWARD="1111:10.0.0.1:3389" \
    -v "$(pwd)/config:/etc/openfortivpn/config" \
    jeffre/openfortivpn-haproxy:latest \
    --otp=123456

Running on MacOS

Since /dev/ppp does not exist on MacOS, we will not attempt to bring it in with the --device flag. However, in order to create a ppp device inside the container, we will instead need the --privileged flag:

docker run --rm -it \
    --privileged \
    -p "1111:1111" \
    -e PORT_FORWARD="3389:10.0.0.1:3389" \
    jeffre/openfortivpn-haproxy:latest \
    fortinet.example.com:8443
