Configuring an External Server for Authorization and Authentication


This appendix describes how to configure an external LDAP or RADIUS server to support the authentication and authorization of security appliance, VPN3000, and PIX users. Authentication determines who the user is and authorization determines what the user can do. Before you configure the security appliance to use an external server, you must configure the server with the correct security appliance authorization attributes and, from a subset of these attributes, assign specific permissions to individual users.

Configuring an External RADIUS Server

Selecting LDAP, RADIUS, or Local Authentication and Authorization

To help you decide which authentication or authorization method is right for your platform, this section describes the LDAP and RADIUS support provided with the security appliance (ASA), PIX, and the VPN 3000 platforms.

LDAP Authentication

Supported on PIX 7.1.x and the security appliance only. VPN 3000 does not support native LDAP authentication. The LDAP server retrieves and searches for the username and enforces any defined attributes as part of the authorization function.

LDAP Authorization

Supported on PIX, VPN 3000, and the security appliance. The LDAP server retrieves/searches the username and enforces any defined attributes.

RADIUS Authentication

Supported on PIX, VPN 3000, and the security appliance. The RADIUS server retrieves/searches the username and enforces any defined attributes as it performs the authorization function.

RADIUS Authorization

Supported on PIX, VPN 3000, and the security appliance. The RADIUS server retrieves/searches the username and enforces any defined attributes.

Local Authentication

Supported on PIX, VPN 3000, and the security appliance. The Local/Internal server retrieves/searches the username and enforces any defined attributes as part of the authorization function.

Local Authorization

Supported on PIX 7.1.x and the security appliance only. The Local/Internal server retrieves/searches the username and enforces any defined attributes.

Understanding Policy Enforcement of Permissions and Attributes

You can configure the security appliance to receive user attributes from either the LOCAL/internal database, a RADIUS/LDAP authentication server, or a RADIUS/LDAP authorization server. You can also place users into group-policies with different attributes, but the user attributes will always take precedence. After the device authenticates the user and group(s), the security appliance combines the user and group attribute sets into one aggregate attribute set. The security appliance uses the attributes in the following order and applies the aggregate attribute set to the authenticated user.

1. User attributes—The server returns these after successful user authentication or authorization. These take precedence over all others.

2. Group policy attributes—These attributes come from the group policy associated with the user. You identify the user group policy name in the local database by the ' vpn-group-policy' attribute or from an external RADIUS/LDAP server by the value of the RADIUS CLASS attribute (25) in the format 'OU=GroupName;'. The group policy provides any attributes that are missing from the user attributes. User attributes override group policy attributes if both have a value.

3. Tunnel group default-group-policy attributes—These attributes come from the default-group-policy (Base group) that is associated with the tunnel group. After a lookup of that group policy, the Tunnel Group's default-group-policy provide any attributes that are missing from the user or group policy attributes. User attributes override group policy attributes if both have a value.

4. System default attributes—System default attributes provide any attributes that are missing from the user, group, or tunnel group attributes.

Configuring an External LDAP Server


Note For more information on the LDAP protocol, see RFCs 1777, 2251, and 2849.


This section describes the structure, schema, and attributes of an LDAP server. It includes the following topics:

Reviewing the LDAP Directory Structure and Configuration Procedure

Organizing the Security Appliance LDAP Schema

Defining the Security Appliance LDAP Schema

Loading the Schema in the LDAP Server

Defining User Permissions

Reviewing Examples of Active Directory Configurations

Reviewing the LDAP Directory Structure and Configuration Procedure

An LDAP server stores information as entries in a directory. An LDAP schema defines what types of information such entries store. The schema lists classes and the set of (required and optional) attributes that objects of each class can contain.

To configure your LDAP server to interoperate with the security appliance, define a security appliance authorization schema. A security appliance authorization schema defines the class and attributes of that class that the security appliance supports. Specifically, it comprises the object class (cVPN3000-User-Authorization) and all its possible attributes that may be used to authorize a security appliance user (such as access hours, primary DNS, and so on). Each attribute comprises the attribute name, its number (called an object identifier or OID), its type, and its possible values.

Once you have defined the security appliance authorization schema and loaded it on your server, define the security appliance attributes and permissions and their respective values for each user who will be authorizing to the server.

In summary, to set up your LDAP server:

Design your security appliance LDAP authorization schema based on the hierarchical set-up of your organization

Define the security appliance authorization schema

Load the schema on the LDAP server

Define permissions for each user on the LDAP server

The specific steps of these processes vary, depending on which type of LDAP server you are using.

Organizing the Security Appliance LDAP Schema

Before you actually create your schema, think about how your organization is structured. Your LDAP schema should reflect the logical hierarchy of your organization.

For example, suppose an employee at your company, Example Corporation, is named Terry. Terry works in the Engineering group. Your LDAP hierarchy could have one or many levels. You might decide to set up a shallow, single-level hierarchy in which Terry is considered a member of Example Corporation. Or, you could set up a multi-level hierarchy in which Terry is considered to be a member of the department Engineering, which is a member of an organizational unit called People, which is itself a member of Example Corporation. See Figure E-1 for an example of this multi-level hierarchy.

A multi-level hierarchy has more granularity, but a single level hierarchy is quicker to search.

Figure E-1 A Multi-Level LDAP Hierarchy

Searching the Hierarchy

The security appliance lets you tailor the search within the LDAP hierarchy. You configure the following three fields on the security appliance to define where in the LDAP hierarchy your search begins, its extent, and the type of information it is looking for. Together these fields allow you to limit the search of the hierarchy to just the part of the tree that contains the user permissions.

LDAP Base DN defines where in the LDAP hierarchy the server should begin searching for user information when it receives an authorization request from the security appliance.

Search Scope defines the extent of the search in the LDAP hierarchy. The search proceeds this many levels in the hierarchy below the LDAP Base DN. You can choose to have the server search only the level immediately below, or it can search the entire subtree. A single level search is quicker, but a subtree search is more extensive.

Naming Attribute(s) defines the Relative Distinguished Name (RDN) that uniquely identifies an entry in the LDAP server. Common naming attributes are: cn (Common Name) and ui (user identification).

Figure E-1 shows a possible LDAP hierarchy for Example Corporation. Given this hierarchy, you could define your search in different ways. Table E-1 shows two possible search configurations.

In the first example configuration, when Terry establishes his or her IPSec tunnel with LDAP authorization required, the security appliance sends a search request to the LDAP server indicating it should search for Terry in the Engineering group. This search is quick.

In the second example configuration, the security appliance sends a search request indicating the server should search for Terry within Example Corporation. This search takes longer.

1

group= Engineering,ou=People,dc=ExampleCorporation, dc=com

Subtree

Binding the Security Appliance to the LDAP Server

Some LDAP servers (including the Microsoft Active Directory server) require the security appliance to establish a handshake via authenticated binding before they accept requests for any other LDAP operations. The security appliance identifies itself for authenticated binding by attaching a Login DN field to the user authentication request. The Login DN field defines the authentication characteristics of the security appliance; these characteristics should correspond to those of a user with administration privileges. An example Login DN field could be: cn=Administrator, cn=users, ou=people, dc=example, dc=com.

Defining the Security Appliance LDAP Schema

Once you have decided how to structure your user information in the LDAP hierarchy, define this organization in a schema. To define the schema, begin by defining the object class name. The class name for the security appliance directory is cVPN3000-User-Authorization. The class has the object identifier (OID) 1.2.840.113556.1.8000.795.1.1. Every entry or user in the directory is an object of this class.

Some LDAP servers (for example, the Microsoft Active Directory LDAP server) do not allow you to reuse the class OID once you have defined it. Use the next incremental OID. For example, if you incorrectly defined the class name as cVPN3000-Usr-Authorization with OID 1.2.840.113556.1.8000.795.1.1, you can enter the correct class name cVPN3000-User-Authorization with the next OID, for example, 1.2.840.113556.1.8000.795.1.2.

For the Microsoft Active Directory LDAP server, define the schema in text form in a file using the LDAP Data Interchange Format (LDIF). This file has an extension of .ldif, for example: schema.ldif. Other LDAP servers use graphical user interfaces or script files to define the object class and its attributes. For more information on LDIF, see RFC-2849.


NoteAll LDAP attributes for all three appliances begin with the letters cVPN3000; for example: cVPN3000-Access-Hours.

The appliances enforce the LDAP attributes based on attribute name, not numeric ID. RADIUS attributes, on the other hand, are enforced by numeric ID, not by name.

Authorization refers to the process of enforcing permissions or attributes. An LDAP server defined as an authentication or authorization server will enforce permissions or attributes if they are configured.


For a complete list of attributes for the security appliance, the PIX Firewall and the VPN 3000, see Table E-2.

All strings are case-sensitive and you must use an attribute name as capitalized in the table even if it conflicts with how a term is typically written. For example, use cVPN3000-IETF-Radius-Class, not cVPN3000-IETF-RADIUS-Class.

Action

Action to perform if rule matches: deny, permit.

Protocol

Number or name of an IP protocol. Either an integer in the range 0-255 or one of the following keywords: icmp, igmp, ip, tcp, udp.

Source

Network or host that sends the packet. It is specified as an IP address, a hostname, or the keyword "any". If specified as an IP address, the source wildcard mask must follow.

Source Wildcard Mask

The wildcard mask applied to the source address.

Destination

Network or host that receives the packet. It is specified as an IP address, a hostname, or the keyword "any". If specified as an IP address, the source wildcard mask must follow.

Destination Wildcard Mask

The wildcard mask applied to the destination address.

Log

Loading the Schema in the LDAP Server


Note The directions in this section are specific to the Microsoft Active Directory LDAP server. If you have a different type of server, refer to your server documentation for information on loading a schema.


To load the schema on the LDAP server, enter the following command from the directory where the schema file resides: ldifde -i -f Schema Name. For example: ldifde -i -f 3k_schema.ldif

Defining User Permissions


Note The directions in this section are specific to the Microsoft Active Directory LDAP server. If you have a different type of server, see your server documentation to define and load user attributes.


For each user authorizing to your LDAP server, define a user file. A user file defines all the security appliance attributes and values associated with a particular user. Each user is an object of the class cVPN3000-User-Authorization. To define the user file, use any text editor. The file must have the extension .ldif. (For an example user file, see Robin.ldif.)

To load the user file on the LDAP server, enter the following command on the directory where your version of the ldap_user.ldif file resides: ldifde -i -f ldap_user.ldif. For example: ldifde -i -f Robin.ldif

After you have created and loaded both the schema and the user file, your LDAP server is ready to process security appliance authorization requests.

Example User File

This section provides a sample user file for the user Robin.

Reviewing Examples of Active Directory Configurations

This section presents example procedures for configuring authentication and authorization on the security appliance using the Microsoft Active Directory server. It includes the following topics:

Example 1: Configuring LDAP Authorization with Microsoft Active Directory (ASA/PIX)

Example 2: Configuring LDAP Authentication with Microsoft Active Directory

Example 3: LDAP Authentication and LDAP Authorization with Microsoft Active Directory

Example 1: Configuring LDAP Authorization with Microsoft Active Directory (ASA/PIX)

This example presents a configuration procedure for authentication using SDI and authorization using LDAP and Microsoft Active Directory (AD). To execute this sample procedure, perform the following steps:


Step 1 Using LDIF files, create the cVPN3000-User-Authorization record on the Microsoft AD database. This record contains the Cisco VPN authorization attributes for the user.


Note Contact Cisco TAC to obtain the Microsoft AD LDAP schema for Cisco VPN attributes.


Step 2 To confirm the new record, choose Start > Settings > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Active Directory Users and Computers.

The Active Directory Users and Computers window appears as shown in Figure E-2.

Figure E-2 Active Directory Users and Computers Window

Step 3 On the security appliance, create a aaa-server record for the LDAP server. For this example, these authorization records are stored in the Franklin-Altiga folder. The necessary steps are shown in the following commands:

hostname(config)# aaa-server ldap-authorize-grp protocol ldap
hostname(config-aaa-server-group)# aaa-server ldap-authorize-grp host 10.1.1.4
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-base-dn ou=Franklin-Altiga,dc=frdevtestad, dc=local
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-scope subtree
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-naming-attribute cn
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-login-password anypassword
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-login-dn cn=Administrator,cn=Users, 
dc=frdevtestad,dc=local
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-attribute-map LdapSvrName
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)#

Step 4 Create a tunnel group that specifies SDI Authentication and LDAP authorization, as shown in the following example commands:

hostname(config)# tunnel-group ipsec-tunnelgroup type ipsec-ra
hostname(config)# tunnel-group ipsec-tunnelgroup general-attributes
hostname(config)# authentication-server-group sdi-group
hostname(config)# authorization-server-group ldap-authorize-group
hostname(config)# 

Note This example does not show the configuration for sdi-group.


Example 2: Configuring LDAP Authentication with Microsoft Active Directory

This example presents a configuration procedure for LDAP authentication with Microsoft Active Directory. To secure the user credentials during transmission, this procedure configures the security appliance to exchange messages with the LDAP directory over a SSL connection. It also configures the security appliance to interpret the department attribute in the Microsoft AD user record as the group policy to which the user is assigned. The authorization attributes for this group are retrieved from a RADIUS server.

View the user records by clicking the User folder in the Active Directory Users and Computers window as shown in Figure E-3.

Figure E-3 Active Directory Users and Computers Window Showing User Folder

Review specific user attributes and values by right-clicking the username and clicking Properties. The Username Properties dialog box appears as shown in Figure E-4.

Figure E-4 The Username Properties Dialog Box


Note The department attribute is configured under the Organization tab in the Active Directory Users and Computers window.


To configure this example, perform the following steps on the security appliance:


Step 1 Create a aaa-server record for the LDAP authentication server and use the ldap-base-dn to specify the search location for the Active Directory user records as shown in the following example commands:

hostname(config)# aaa-server ldap-authenticate-grp protocol ldap
hostname(config-aaa-server-group)# aaa-server ldap-authenticate-grp host 10.1.1.4
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-base-dn cn=Users,dc=frdevtestad,dc=local
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-scope subtree
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-naming-attribute cn
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-login-password anypassword
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-login-dn cn=Administrator,cn=Users, 
dc=frdevtestad,dc=local
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)#

Step 2 Create an LDAP mapping table entry to map the AD attribute department to the Cisco attribute cVPN3000-IETF-Radius-Class as shown in the following example commands:

hostname(config)# ldap attribute-map ActiveDirectoryMapTable
hostname(config-ldap-attribute-map)# map-name department cVPN3000-IETF-Radius-Class
hostname(config-ldap-attribute-map)# 

Step 3 Configure the name of the LDAP attribute map as shown in the following example command:

hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-attribute-map ActiveDirectoryMapTable

hostname(config-aaa-server-host)#

Step 4 Specify a secure LDAP connection as follows:

hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-over-ssl enable

hostname(config-aaa-server-host)#

Step 5 Create an external group policy that associates the group-name with the RADIUS server. In this example, the user is assigned to the group Engineering as shown in the following example command:

hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# group-policy Engineering external server-group radius-group password anypassword

hostname(config-aaa-server-host)#

Step 6 Create a tunnel group that specifies LDAP authentication as shown in the following example commands:

hostname(config)# tunnel-group ipsec-tunnelgroup type ipsec-ra

hostname(config)# tunnel-group ipsec-tunnelgroup general-attributes

hostname(config-tunnel-general)# authentication-server-group ldap-authenticate-grp

hostname(config-tunnel-general)#


Note The configuration for radius-group is not shown in this example.


Example 3: LDAP Authentication and LDAP Authorization with Microsoft Active Directory

This example presents the procedure for configuring both authentication and authorization using LDAP and Microsoft Active Directory. In the Microsoft user record, the department attribute is interpreted as the group-name for the user. The authorization attributes for this group-name are retrieved from the Active Directory server.

The department attribute is configured under the Organization tab in the Active Directory Users and Computers dialog box as shown in Figure E-5.

Figure E-5 The Organization Tab of the Active Directory Users and Computer Dialog

To configure this example, perform the following steps on the security appliance:


Step 1 Create an LDAP mapping table entry to map the Active Directory attribute department to the Cisco attribute cVPN3000-IETF-Radius-Class as shown in the following example commands:

hostname(config)# ldap attribute-map ActiveDirectoryMapTable
hostname(config-ldap-attribute-map)# map-name department cVPN3000-IETF-Radius-Class

Step 2 Create a aaa-server record for the LDAP authentication server and use the ldap-base-dn to specify the search location for the Active Directory user records as shown in the following example commands:

hostname(config)# aaa-server ldap-authenticate protocol ldap
hostname(config-aaa-server-group)# aaa-server ldap-authenticate host 10.1.1.4
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-base-dn cn=Users,dc=frdevtestad,dc=local
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-scope subtree
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-naming-attribute cn
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-login-password anypassword
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-login-dn cn=Administrator,cn=Users, 
dc=frdevtestad,dc=local
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# 

Step 3 Configure the name of the LDAP attribute map as shown in the following example command:

hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-attribute-map ActiveDirectoryMapTable
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)#

Step 4 Specify a secure LDAP connection as follows:

hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-over-ssl enable
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)#

Step 5 Create an aaa-server record to configure the LDAP authorization server and use the ldap-base-dn to specify the search location for the Cisco cVPN3000-User-Authorization records as shown in the following example commands:

hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# aaa-server ldap-authorize protocol ldap
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# aaa-server ldap-authorize host 10.1.1.4
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-base-dn ou=Franklin-Altiga,dc=frdevtestad, dc=local
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-scope subtree
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-naming-attribute cn
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-login-password anypassword
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# ldap-login-dn cn=Administrator,cn=Users, 
dc=frdevtestad,dc=local
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)#

Step 6 Create an external group policy that associates the group-name with the LDAP authorization server. In this example, the user is assigned to the group Engineering as shown in the following command:

hostname(config-aaa-server-host)# group-policy engineering external server-group 
ldap-authorize
hostname(config-aaa-server-host)#

Step 7 Create a tunnel group that specifies LDAP authentication as shown in the following example commands:

hostname(config)# tunnel-group ipsec-tunnelgroup type ipsec-ra
hostname(config)# tunnel-group ipsec-tunnelgroup general-attributes
hostname(config-tunnel-general)# authentication-server-group ldap-authenticate
hostname(config-tunnel-general)#

Configuring an External RADIUS Server

This section presents an overview of the RADIUS configuration procedure and defines the Cisco RADIUS and TACACS+ attributes. It includes the following topics:

Reviewing the RADIUS Configuration Procedure

Security Appliance RADIUS Authorization Attributes

Security Appliance TACACS+ Attributes

Reviewing the RADIUS Configuration Procedure

This section describes the RADIUS configuration steps required to support authentication and authorization of the security appliance users. Follow the steps below to set up the RADIUS server to inter operate with the security appliance.


Step 1 Load the security appliance attributes into the RADIUS server. The method you use to load the attributes depends on which type of RADIUS server you are using:

If you are using Cisco ACS: the server already has these attributes integrated. You can skip this step.

If you are using a FUNK RADIUS server: Cisco supplies a dictionary file that contains all the security appliance attributes. Obtain this dictionary file, cisco3k.dct, from Software Center on CCO or from the security appliance CD-ROM. Load the dictionary file on your server.

For other vendors' RADIUS servers (for example, Microsoft Internet Authentication Service): you must manually define each security appliance attribute. To define an attribute, use the attribute name or number, type, value, and vendor code (3076). For a list of security appliance RADIUS authorization attributes and values, see Table E-4.

Step 2 Set up the users or groups with the permissions and attributes to send during IPSec/WebVPN tunnel establishment. The permissions or attributes might include access hours, primary DNS, banner, and so forth.


Security Appliance RADIUS Authorization Attributes


Note Authorization refers to the process of enforcing permissions or attributes. A RADIUS server defined as an authentication server enforces permissions or attributes if they are configured.


Table E-4 lists all the possible security appliance supported attributes that can be used for user authorization.

Note RADIUS attribute names do not contain the cVPN3000 prefix to better reflect support for all three security appliances (VPN 3000, PIX, and the ASA). Cisco Secure ACS 4.x supports this new nomenclature, but attribute names in pre-4.0 ACS releases still include the cVPN3000 prefix. The appliances enforce the RADIUS attributes based on attribute numeric ID, not attribute name. LDAP attributes are enforced by their name, not by the ID.


Security Appliance TACACS+ Attributes

The security appliance provides support for TACACS+ attributes. TACACS+ separates the functions of authentication, authorization, and accounting. The protocol supports two types of attributes: mandatory and optional. Both the server and client must understand a mandatory attribute, and the mandatory attribute must be applied to the user. An optional attribute may or may not be understood or used.


Note To use TACACS+ attributes, make sure you have enabled AAA services on the NAS.


Table E-5 lists supported TACACS+ authorization response attributes for cut-through-proxy connections. Table E-6 lists supported TACACS+ accounting attributes.
