Cisco Virtual Office-Advanced Layered Security Deployment Guide

This deployment guide provides detailed design and implementation information for deployment of Advanced Layered Security features with the Cisco Virtual Office.

Please refer to the Cisco Virtual Office overview (http://www.cisco.com/go/cvo) for more information about the solution, its architecture, and all of its components.

Introduction

This guide assumes basic knowledge about the Cisco Virtual Office deployment solution and basic Layered Security features. For more information about the Cisco Virtual Office VPN deployment solution, please refer to the Cisco Virtual Office Deployment Guide at http://www.cisco.com/en/US/solutions/collateral/ns340/ns517/ns430/ns855/deployment_guide_c22-493157.html.
Following are the major features included in this guide:

• Zone-Based Policy Firewall (ZFW)

• User Group Firewall (UGFW)

• Object Group Access Control List (OGACL)

Zone-Based Policy Firewall

Zone-Based Policy Firewall (ZFW) is a new alternative way to configure and deploy firewall policies. This new configuration model offers intuitive policies for multiple-interface routers, increased granularity and flexibility of firewall policy application, and a default deny-all policy that prohibits traffic between firewall security zones until an explicit policy is applied to allow desirable traffic.
In Zone-Based Policy Firewall, multiple security zones are defined. Each zone has different network privileges. Each router interface is configured to be part of one of the zones. The traffic flow is unrestricted between interfaces belonging to same zone, but traffic flow between two different zones is blocked unless an access policy is defined between them. In traditional firewall, the policies are applied on the interface itself, whereas in zone-based firewall they are applied between the zones (Figure 1).

Figure 1. Zones in a Typical Cisco Virtual Office Deployment

The Zone-Based Policy Firewall configuration is done using Cisco Policy Language. Following are the basic design steps to take before finalizing the firewall configuration:

• Identify zones: Identify interfaces that should have the same access privileges and group them in zones.

• Identify zone pairs: Identify all the zone pairs between which traffic flow needs to be allowed. If a zone pair is not defined, traffic will not be allowed between them by default.

• Create traffic policy: Identify the traffic restrictions between each identified zone pair and define them as Cisco Policy Language policies.

• Finally, attach the policy to a zone pair.

Primarily three Cisco Policy Language constructs are used for defining a Zone-Based Policy Firewall policy:

• Class-map: To specify interesting traffic through "match" conditions

• Policy-map: To associate actions with the traffic specified by the class map.

• Parameter-map: Any operating parameters needed for the actions of class or policy mapping

For more details about Zone-Based Policy Firewall, refer to the "Zone-Based Policy Firewall Design Guide" (Reference 3).
Four network zones are defined on a Cisco Virtual Office spoke router:

• Corpnet: Zone connecting to corporate network, tunnel interface on Cisco Virtual Office

• Internet: Zone connecting to Internet connection

• Trustednet: Zone where the IP devices at home are connected; this zone needs to have corporate access

• Guestnet: Zone where other nonemployee devices are connected; this zone has no corporate access

Apart from the user-defined zones, there is also a hidden zone named "self", which is defined for the traffic consumed by the router itself. So if the router needs to be made accessible from any other zones, you must define a policy between that zone and the self zone.
Following are the important zone pairs and the traffic policies between them:

• Trustednet to Internet: Enable Context-Based Access Control (CBAC) so that the return traffic is permitted.

• Trustednet to corpnet: All traffic is allowed to the corporate network.

• Trustednet to guestnet: Enable CBAC. From the perspective of the trustednet, the guestnet has the same Internet privileges.

• Corpnet to trustednet: All traffic is allowed.

• Internet to trustednet: Allow only restricted traffic (such as VPN, management network, etc.); CBAC permits the return traffic corresponding to the trustednet-to-Internet traffic.

• Guestnet to Internet: Enable CBAC, so that return traffic is allowed in the reverse direction.

• Self to Internet: Allow all traffic.

• Internet to self: Allow only restricted traffic (such as VPN, management network, etc.).

All other zone pairs not listed assume the default policy of not allowing any traffic between them.

Some ZFW Design Considerations

Following are some of the design considerations to keep in mind while designing a ZFW policy:

• If no policy is defined, traffic between any two security zones is dropped.

• If no policy is defined, traffic between any zone and the self zone is permitted (except in some cases; refer to the next bullet). This setup helps to maintain the network access to the router while ZFW polices are applied to the router, so you should define a strict access policy between security zones and the self zone -- especially between untrusted zones and the self zone.

• Sometimes the router-originated traffic is configured to use the IP address of a different interface than the outgoing interface as the source IP address of the traffic. In that case the outgoing traffic follows the zone-to-zone policy between the zones where both interfaces belong to instead of self-zone policy. Incoming traffic destined to the router still follows the zone-to-self zone policy, even if the destination IP address is different from the address of the incoming interface.

• Application firewall inspection between the self zone and the security zone is not as comprehensive as the zone-to-zone inspection.

• For more design considerations, refer to the "Zone-Based Policy Firewall Design and Application Guide" (Reference 3).

User Group Firewall

User Group Firewall is a mechanism to authenticate each user and provide access privileges based on the type of user being authenticated. The authentication is done by a RADIUS server. The user initially has limited or no access to the protected network. When the user is authenticated, access privileges are established for the IP address from which the user is accessing the network. The access privileges depend on which user group the user belongs to on the RADIUS server. (Refer to Figure 2 for the work flow.)

Figure 2. UGFW Work Flow

The authentication process begins when you make an HTTP request to the protected network. If the IP address of that device is not already authenticated, the HTPP request is intercepted by the router and replaced with a webpage querying for username and password. You must enter the assigned username and password. The credentials are then forwarded to a RADIUS server for validation.
After you are authenticated by the RADIUS server, a user tag is downloaded from the server. The tag is configured on a RADIUS server, which corresponds to the group you belong to. The router then installs the corresponding access policy that matches the downloaded tag. An access policy must be defined on the router for each possible tag.
This local policy configuration allows flexibility so that users in different locations may have different access controls for the same tag. (For example, a user accessing from a remote-access node may be given less access compared to the same user authenticating from an enterprise location.) An end host can also be part of multiple user groups, so that different tags can be downloaded, providing various levels of access.
You need to configure an intercept access control list (ACL) as part of the UGFW configuration. This ACL defines what traffic needs to be authenticated. The UGFW feature works only with Zone-Based Policy Firewall. The user tags are configured as traffic classification rules.
On the client side, you are prompted to authenticate by entering a username and password combination (refer to Figure 3). (Your user credentials must first be added to the authentication, authorization, and accounting [AAA] server.

Note: This procedure is similar to Cisco Authentication Proxy except that a tag is downloaded from the server. From the user side, authentication steps are the same as those for Authentication Proxy. The user setup in the AAA server is also configured similarly. Please refer http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/ios/12_1/security/configuration/guide/scdauthp.html for a more detailed explanation of Authentication Proxy.)

After a user is authenticated, traffic from that user will start matching the tag and will follow the traffic rules configured for it. When the end user is associated with the user group, inspection is enabled for all traffic and protocols coming from that source.

Figure 3. Authentication Prompt and Success Screen After a User Successfully Authenticates. Clicking "Done" After Successful Authentication Allows Access to the Corporate Network.

Server-Side Configuration

A tag that associates a user to a user group must first be configured on an AAA server. The tag name is specified as a vendor-specific Attribute-Value (AV) pair. Cisco Virtual Office uses Cisco Secure Access Control Server (ACS) v4.1. In this version of Cisco Secure ACS, the AV pair is configured under the Cisco IOS® Software or Cisco PIX® 6.0 RADIUS Attributes section after the group has been created on the server. Please refer to the Cisco Secure Access Control Server Deployment guide for Cisco Virtual Office for more detailed ACS configuration and deployment documentation http://www.cisco.com/en/US/prod/collateral/iosswrel/ps6537/ps6586/ps6660/ps6807/deployment_guide_c07_458687_ns855_Networking_Solutions_White_Paper.html.
In this case, the Cisco AV pairs are specified in the format tag-name=<name of tag> followed by the privilege level for the tag: priv-lvl=<privilege level>. Figure 4 shows a screenshot of the Cisco ACS page where the AV pairs are configured. This tag must match the tag configured locally on the router for successful authentication. If the tag matches, the user will be associated with that user group.

Figure 4. Cisco Secure ACS Configuration for UGFW

Spoke Router Configuration

On the Cisco Virtual Office setup, the zone pairs to which UGFWs are applied are the trustednet-to-corpnet zone pair. (Refer to Figure 1 for a zone-pair diagram). In this zone pair, when the user's PC downloads the tag from the AAA and is associated with a user group, all traffic is allowed from trustednet to corpnet. If authentication fails, then traffic is dropped from the trustednet to the corpnet. Return traffic from corpnet to trustednet is allowed to pass by default.

User Group Firewall Sample Configuration

Following is the configuration for User Group Firewall on the Cisco Virtual Office spoke router.
On the spoke router, apply the following:
! Enable ip http server to allow access to the RADIUS server
ip http server
! Configure AAA parameters. This AAA should also have the user group tag
! configured on it.
aaa group server radius authproxy
server-private <server ip addr> auth-port 1812 acct-port 1813 key 7 <key>
ip radius source-interface Vlan10
aaa authentication login default local group authproxy
aaa authorization auth-proxy default group authproxy
! Specify which tag to match. Tag must match the one configured on AAA.
! In this case, the tag name is `engineer' so `engineer' is also
! configured as the tag name on the AAA server.
class-map type control tag match-all engineer-class
match tag engineer
! Configure policy attributes for the user group. The user group in this
! case is called `group-engineer.' Once the user authenticates, he/she
! will be considered part of the user group `group-engineer.'
identity policy engineer-policy
user-group group-engineer
! Tie the tag name with the policy it should be associated with. Here,
! the tag `engineer' defined in `engineer-class' will be associated with
! user group named `group-engineer.' Policies for `group-engineer' will
! be applied once the tag is downloaded.
policy-map type control tag ugfw-tag-policy
class type control tag engineer-class
identity policy engineer-policy
! Specify interesting traffic to match on. In this case, it is based on
! membership of source ip address in the user-group

! Auth-proxy will intercept http access matching the below permit lines

...
!
! Map the tag-name to a template on the spoke router and
! associate it with an authentication method. auth_proxy_acl is
! the intercept ACL.
ip admission name auth-http proxy http inactivity-time 60 list auth_proxy_acl service-policy type tag ugfw-tag-policy
! Apply ip admission rule to the source zone member interface
interface Vlan10
ip admission auth-http

Note: Matches on user groups allow traffic of all protocol types. If further restriction is desired, add additional matches but make sure the class map is inspecting on a "match-all" criterion. For example, if only TCP traffic is allowed, configuration should be:

class-map type inspect match-all engineer-http-cmap
match user-group group-engineer
match protocol tcp

Note: Configuring the following does not restrict traffic to just TCP traffic because the user group matches on all protocol types:

class-map type inspect match-any engineer-http-cmap
match user-group group-engineer
match protocol tcp

IP Phone Bypassing

IP phones must be bypassed because they cannot be authenticated with Authentication Proxy.
One method to bypass IP phones is to create a separate VLAN for the voice traffic. Creating a voice VLAN also allows you to apply different policies specifically for the IP phones that are separate from the policies for allowing the user's PC to access the corporate network.
! Configure auth-proxy exemption for Cisco IP phone
identity profile auth-proxy
device authorize type cisco ip phone policy ip-phone
identity policy ip-phone
user-group cisco-phone
! Define policy attributes to be enforced for the IP phone
identity policy ip-phone
user-group cisco-phone
! Define the match criteria for phone traffic.
class-map type inspect match-any ip-phone
match protocol sip
match protocol skinny
match protocol dns
match protocol https
match protocol http
! Define policy to inspect traffic coming from the ip phone to the
! corpnet
policy-map type inspect ip_phone_policy
class type inspect ip-phone
inspect
class class-default
drop
! Define security zone for the ip phone
zone security ipphone
description ipphone
! Configure a separate vlan for the IP phone and apply the proper zone to
! the vlan
interface Vlan30
description voice vlan
ip unnumbered Vlan10
zone-member security ipphone
no autostate
! Configure voice vlan on interface(s)
interface FastEthernet1
switchport voice vlan 30
! Configure zone-pair and apply the policy-map for traffic between the ip
! phone and corpnet
zone-pair security ipphone-corpnet source ipphone destination corpnet
service-policy type inspect ip_phone_policy
zone-pair security corpnet-ipphone source corpnet destination ipphone
service-policy type inspect ip_phone_policy
! Add ip admission for the phone. This will match the user group
! cisco-phone as configured above.
ip admission name ip-phone proxy http inactivity-time 60

Note: After applying the configuration, you may have to reset the phone and wait a few minutes before the phone registers with the Cisco Unified Communications Manager and comes up again.

An alternative method is to create a class map to allow the protocols needed to establish the voice communication sessions to pass and add it to the policy for allowing traffic from the trustednet to the corpnet. The voice traffic policy must be defined and matched first (before other traffic) in this case.
! Configure auth-proxy exemption for Cisco IP phone
identity profile auth-proxy
device authorize type cisco ip phone policy ip-phone
identity policy ip-phone
user-group cisco-phone
! Define policy attributes to be enforced for the IP phone

! Define the match criteria for phone traffic. Here it is sip and
! skinny.
class-map type inspect match-any phone-cmap

! Define the policy to inspect traffic between trustednet and corpnet.
! Make sure to inspect the phone traffic first.

Object Group-Based ACLs

Object group-based ACLs (OGACLs) are used for configuring and managing large ACLs. This feature allows you to classify users, devices, or applications into groups, so you can apply policies based on a group classification. This feature allows for separation of ownership of different components, a reduction in configuration size, and improved ACL management and readability. Because OGACLs are an abstraction of standard Cisco IOS ACLs, you can use OGACLs where most traditional ACLs are used. However, OGACLs are not currently supported in cryptography map traffic selector ACLs.
There are two types of object groups: network object groups and service object groups. Network object groups define a group of hosts or subnet addresses, and service object groups define a group of services such as protocols and ports.
The syntax to configure OGACLs is similar to that of standard ACLs, but you can replace addresses, ports, and protocols with object group names that you define:
ip access-list extended <acl_nam>
[permit | deny] object-group <service_obj_grp_name> object-group <source_obj_grp> object-group <dest_obj_grp>
You must first configure the necessary service or network object groups.
Service object group configuration:
object-group service <service_obj_group_name>
[protocol | port]
Network object group configuration:
object-group network <network_name>
[{host <host_addr> | <net_addr> <netmask> | group-object <nested_net_og>]
For the network object group, configuring a network with a mask requires use of the network mask, not the wildcard mask used in traditional ACLs. OGACLs are applied to an interface the same way that traditional ACLs are.
Because network and service object groups are separated, OGACLs are easier to edit than traditional ACLs. For example, in traditional ACLs, adding a permit statement to another host requires an additional line in the ACL configuration. With OGACLs, you can simply add the host to the appropriate network object group. The OGACL permit statements can be left as is.
