2 Topics of Discussion Netflow Export LDAP Server profiles Large Scale VPN Custom Reports Training classes available from Palo Alto Open discussion/questions

3 Netflow Export The firewall can generate and export NetFlow Version 9 records with unidirectional IP traffic flow information to an outside collector. NetFlow export can be enabled on any ingress interface in the system The firewall supports the standard NetFlow templates and selects the correct one based on the data to be exported

4 Netflow Export-cont d To configure NetFlow data exports, define a NetFlow server profile, which specifies the frequency of the export along with the NetFlow servers that will receive the exported data. Then when you assign the profile to an existing firewall interface, all traffic flowing over that interface is exported to the specified servers.

8 LDAP Server Profiles

9 LDAP Server Profiles LDAP is one of the methods used to authenticate users When you create an administrative account, you specify local authentication or client certificate (no authentication profile), or an authentication profile (RADIUS, LDAP, Kerberos, or local DB authentication). This setting determines how the administrator s authentication is checked.

13 Large Scale VPN

14 Large Scale VPN The Large Scale VPN feature simplifies the deployment of traditional hub and spoke VPNs. This solution provides administrators with the ability to quickly deploy enterprise networks with several branch offices or telecommuters to securely access resources at a central site, with a minimum amount of configuration required on the remote devices. It uses certificates for device authentication, and IPSec to secure data.

15 Large Scale VPN-Concepts GlobalProtect Portal: PAN-OS firewall that holds the entire configuration required for the satellites (spokes) to connect to the gateway (hub). Portal is always required in a large scale VPN. GlobalProtect Gateway: PAN-OS firewall that is the tunnel end point for satellite connections. The resources that the satellites access is protected by the gateway. It is not required to have a separate portal and gateway. A single PAN-OS firewall can function both as portal and gateway. GlobalProtect Satellites: Remote site firewalls that connect to a gateway(s) in order to access centralized resources. Certificate Authority Server: The portal, gateway, and satellites authenticate to each other using certificates. The PAN-OS firewall itself can be configured as the CA server to sign certificates.

16 Large Scale VPN-Enrollment Methods The GlobalProtect portal authenticates the satellites using either the serial number or a username/password. After the satellite successfully authenticates to the portal, it will obtain the configuration from the portal and attempts to establish an IPSec tunnel to the gateways.

17 Large Scale VPN-Serial Number Enrollment When using a serial number for authentication, you must add the serial number of the Palo Alto Networks firewall (satellite devices) to the portal configuration (the host name is optional). When the satellite connects to the portal, the portal retrieves the serial number of the portal from the satellite certificate and matches the serial number against the list of the satellite devices allowed to connect to the portal.

18 Large Scale VPN-Username/Password Enrollment The username/password method of authentication is used when the serial number of the device is unknown. In this case, a user account on the portal is used to validate the satellite when it first connects to the portal. The administrator of the satellite must enter the credentials when the satellite connects to the portal. This is done on the satellite by navigating to Network > IPSec Tunnels and choosing gateway info and then clicking on Enter Credentials. The username/password authentication is only required the first time the satellite connects to the portal. Once authenticated, the username/password is not required for subsequent connections.

19 Large Scale VPN- Initial Connection Sequence In this example, it is assumed that the portal is configured as the CA server, all the required certificates are configured, and the portal and gateway configured to accept connections from satellite devices.

20 Large Scale VPN- Initial Connection Sequence 1.Satellite generates a CSR and sends it to the portal over an SSL connection. 2. Satellite authenticates the portal's certificate before establishing a connection to the portal. In order to authenticate the portal s certificate, the satellite must have the CA certificate that was used to sign the portal certificate. 3. Satellite then authenticates to the portal using its serial number. 4. The portal verifies the serial number with its locally configured list of satellite devices. If the serial number does not exist in the portal configuration, the portal returns a 401 error message prompting the satellite administrator to authenticate using a username/password. 5. Portal verifies the credentials provided using the authentication profile configured in the portal configuration.

21 Large Scale VPN- Initial Connection Sequence 6. After the satellite is authenticated, portal creates a certificate for the satellite from the CSR received. The portal then sends the satellite, its certificate and configuration which include the list of gateways. 7. Satellite contacts all available gateways using its certificate for authentication. Satellite and gateway verify the validity of certificates. 8. Satellite then submits a list of routes to the gateway. Gateway accepts the routes if they are not denied by the route filter configured on the gateway. 9. Gateway provides the satellite with a list of routes. 10. IPSec tunnel is established between the gateway and satellites. The keys for IPSec tunnel is exchanged using a SSL connection

22 Large Scale VPN- Certificate renewal 1. The portal checks the list of expiring certificates every 24 hours and renews client certificates that will expire within (certificate lifetime / 5) days of the current date. 2. Satellite authenticates to the portal to retrieve the latest configuration and certificate. 3. Satellite installs new configuration and new certificate. 4. Satellite re-keys all gateway connections using the new certificate.

23 Large Scale VPN- Certificate Requirements Large Scale VPN uses certificates to authenticate the portal, gateway, and satellites, so all certificates must be signed by the same Certificate Authority (CA). The following certificates are required: CA Certificate-Since the GlobalProtect portal issues authentication certificates for all registered satellites, a CA certificate - root or intermediate must be present or created on the device. An intermediate certificate authority can be created by generating and exporting a certificate signing request from the device and importing the issued certificate as a PEM formatted certificate file.

24 Large Scale VPN- Certificate Requirements The following certificates are required: Cont d Server Certificate-All communication between GlobalProtect satellites, the portal and the gateways are secured via TLS. Therefore, both the GlobalProtect portal and the gateways require SSL certificates. When connecting to the portal, the satellite verifies the presented server certificate against it s built in trusted certificate authority list. After the initial connection, the satellite continues to verify the server certificate of the portal against the list of trusted Root Certificates from the satellite configuration. Since the connection to the gateways occurs after the portal connection, the presented server certificate of the gateways is verified against the Root Certificate list in the satellite configuration only. Because of the verification processes described above and because of simplification, it is recommended to create the portal certificate and all gateway certificates through the same certificate authority.

25 Large Scale VPN- Certificate Requirements The following certificates are required: Cont d OCSP Responder-In order for the portal to provide certificate revocation for GlobalProtect satellites, it is recommended that you configure a publicly available OCSP responder on the device running the portal. Besides configuring an OCSP responder, access to the OCSP service needs to be allowed via the interface management profile settings. If an external certificate authority is used, no OCSP responder configuration is required since revocation is handled externally.

26 Large Scale VPN- Example

27 Large Scale VPN- Example The gateway/portal is configured with the following: IP pool : DNS suffix: acme.local DNS servers: and Access route: /16 and /16 Interfaces

28 Large Scale VPN- Example Portal Configuration To configure the portal navigate to Network > GlobalProtect > Portal.

29 Large Scale VPN- Example Satellite Configuration Note: In this configuration we will be using the serial number of the satellite devices for authentication of satellites.

30 Large Scale VPN- Example Devices: List the serial number(s) of the satellite devices that are authorized to connect to the portal to retrieve the configuration (the host name is optional). Once a satellite device successfully connects to the portal, the hostname will be automatically retrieved from the satellite and updated in this section. In the example below, the serial numbers of the two satellites (spoke devices) are added. Note that the hostname shows as unknown. Once the satellites authenticate and establish a connection with the portal, the satellite hostname will be automatically updated with the hostnames of the satellites.

31 Large Scale VPN- Example Gateways: List the available gateways the satellite can connect to. If there are multiple gateways, specify the name and IP address or FQDN of each of the gateways. In this configuration the firewall is configured as both the portal and gateway with the IP address Routing Priority: When there are more than one gateways site that offers VPN connectivity to the same network, routing priority is used to select the preferred gateway. Routing priority is a numeric value between 1 and 25. A lower value indicates the most preferred gateway. Routes published by gateway are installed on the satellite as a static route. The metric for this static route is derived from the routing priority. The metric of the static route is 10x routing priority. See the section Hub and Spoke VPN with Redundant HUB Site for more information on this topic. In this example we have only one central gateway. The configuration on the portal follows:

32 Large Scale VPN- Example cc

33 Large Scale VPN- Example Certificates If you are using certificates signed by a public CA like VeriSign, you can leave the Trusted Root CA field empty if the CA certificate is listed in the Default Trusted Certificate Authorities. In this example, we are using self-signed certificates with the firewall as the CA server. In the OCSP responder section, select from the drop-down to show the OCSP responder created earlier. The configuration for this example follows:

34 Large Scale VPN- Example Gateway Configuration Interface-External facing interface of the portal, where the satellite devices establish the first connection. In this example the egress interface is ethernet1/10. IP address-egress interface IP address. This is the IP address where the satellites will establish the first connection to authenticate and download the configuration. Server certificate-select the server certificate created for the LSPVN. Certificate Profile-Select the certificate profile created. This is used by the gateway to authenticate satellite when it attempts to establish a tunnel to the gateway.

35 Large Scale VPN- Example Satellite Config

36 Large Scale VPN- Example Satellite Configuration field descriptions Tunnel interface-select the tunnel interface that will be used to terminate the IPSec tunnel and to route traffic between the gateway and satellite. In this example, tunnel.1 is used to terminate IPSec tunnels. Enabling anti-replay offers protection against an attacker duplicating encrypted packets by assigning a unique sequence number to each encrypted packet. Copy Type of Service (TOS) option will copy the TOS field settings from the original IP header to the outer IP header. Configuration refresh interval-the time interval the satellites will refresh the configuration from the gateway. By default the satellite refreshes the gateway configuration every 2 hours. Tunnel Monitoring-Used to monitor the tunnel status. Refer to tunnel monitoring section of this tech note for more details. Crypto Profiles-This is used to define the IPSec encryption and authentication method used for securing the data. The default profile uses ESP-DH group2-aes 128 with SHA-1.

37 Large Scale VPN- Example-Network settings

38 Large Scale VPN- Example-Route Filter This setting is used to control the routes advertised by the satellites. By checking the option Accept published routes, all routes advertised by satellites will be installed in the gateways routing table. This option must be selected in order to accept any routes advertised by the satellite.

39 Large Scale VPN- Example-Satellite Configuration Note: 1. If you are using self signed certificates, you must import the CA server certificate that was used for signing the server certificate to the satellite devices. 2. In order to export the certificate from the portal navigate to Devices > Certificate Management > Certificates, select the CA certificate and choose import. When exporting set the file format to Base64 Encoded Certificate (PEM). DO NOT IMPORT PRIVATE KEY 3. On the satellite device, navigate to Devices > Certificate Management > Certificates and select import. Assign a name to the certificate, set the file format to Base64 Encoded Certificate (PEM), uncheck the import private key and click on OK.
