Place a physical inside a DMZ VM guest

Hello

I did some research on the best way to introduce the DMZ connectivity to my cluster of esx for the purpose of hosting on the outside facing vm guests safely without the need for additional hardware. My esx cluster running 4.0 Update1 and consists of 4 physical and virtual hosts invited VCenter and virtual DB from SQL server.

Currently in terms of physical network configuration, I have one of my interfaces of firewall Cisco ASA feeding a switch cisco 2960 dedicated to purposes of DMZ. The DMZ has only one range of subnet / vlan has it.

Each of my ESX host has a total of 12 ports of physical network adapter. Of these 12, 4 are currently unused and located on a single Quad Port PCI NIC. All other network connections are assigned to the internal corporate network.

My initial intention was to launch a connection of this adapter PCI not used in one of the ports of the physical DMZ switch I want to set it up as a Trunk Port. I would then create a VSwitch and assign it to this adapter only, and then use Vlan tagging to attach to the DMZ VLan.

Now as far as the guest VM goes which I intend to use in the demilitarized zone, it would be that a duel hosted MS Forefront threat Management Gateway 2010 Server that would have a vNic attached to one of the vSwitches on the internal network Corp and the other attached to the above-mentioned DMZ vSwitch vNic.

According to this configuration is there anything about this should raise concerns in security network for the other machines of comments which can reside on the same ESX host? Are there known to the host ESX and his BONES in this type of configuration vulnerabilities?

Anyone who uses a similar setup with the success or failure that would be willing to share there experiences with her... Thanks for any info you can provide

We are went back and forth on whether or not we should mix workloads DMZ with our internal workloads.  We ended up devoting a separate group just for the servers in the DMZ.  In my opinion the biggest wire in mixed workloads is human error.  You certainly want to want to make sure that the network is locked so that no one could accidentally assign an internal server ports DMZ GRPE.

  • ASA inside access DMZ and return

    Hi Expert,

    How configure ASA to allow access from the inside to dmz host and also back?

    Thank you.

    Rgds,

    To the Shaw feel Yeong

    Hello

    By default, access from inside the DMZ is permitted this access is through higher security level to lower the level of security.

    Return to inside host traffic is automatically granted by ASA/firewall if the connection / translation is valid / exists.

    Example:

    Inside of the intellectual property: 192.168.1.1/24

    DMZ: 172.16.1.1/24

    2 two ways to do:

    a. use nat & global command:

    Global (dmz) 1 172.16.1.10 - 172.16.1.20--> help de.10 a.20 will be used inside hosts to access dmz

    Global (dmz) 1 172.16.1.21--> all inside will use this IP like PAT, if the above range is fully used.

    NAT (inside) 1 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0

    Note:

    -Use the ACL if you need to control the type of service to pass through and apply on the inside of the interface.

    b. static use of translation between inside and DMZ subnets:

    static (inside, dmz) 192.168.1 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.0.0.0

    Note:

    -This will allow inside the host to initiate & access dmz and dmz to initiate & access to the inside (initiate connection to dmz host). When DMZ accessing inside the host, DMZ use inside physics/assigned host IP.

    -Use the ACL if you need to control the type of service for cross and apply on time interfaces dmz & Interior.

    Example of configuration:

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/products/HW/vpndevc/ps2030/products_configuration_example09186a00806745b8.shtml

  • Physical vs Virtual DMZ

    I implement the vCloud Suite of products in a multiclient environment and currently do not have a demilitarized zone.   In seeking to define what the DMZ network will look like, devrais I guess that I need one that is defined by a separation of physical networks such as the following:

    (Outside of the physical <>- physical <>- DMZ-<>- Firewall firewall network <>- internal network)

    Is to have a demilitarized zone in a conventional, as above, with two firewalls of both sides, always recommended?

    Can I do the same thing with POSSIBLE and when is it appropriate to set my DMZ in software vs hardware?

    Hello

    Well the following will work using only virtual Firewall:

    <->outside the physical switch <->outside Teddy <->VDS <->FW <->VDS DMZ <->FW <->Outside outside inside VDS

    Physical switch <->Teddy <------------------------>VDS DMZ DMZ DMZ

    Then attach a physical DMZ via the DMZ VDS and specific ports outside your chassis and a physical switch in the DMZ upstream.

    Or the following if you want to combine physical and virtual firewall

    Outside <->physics FW <->DMZ Phsysical Switch <->Teddy <->pvNIC <->DMZ VDS <->FW <->DMZ VDS from inside the DMZ

    If you want to use a DMZ or not depends on what you're really trying to do.

  • PIX 515e, multiple VIRTUAL networks on a physical interface to DMZ

    We try to set up multiple VIRTUAL networks on a physical interface to the DMZ on a PIX 515e.

    The goal is to have logical subnets linked to our single, physical interface DMZ.

    Here's what I've tried so far without success:

    The switch

    -created the vlan 30

    -added switchports fa0/1 to 30 of vlan

    -attached host 192.168.100.1 in fa0/1

    -added switchport fa0/24 to the vlan 1 and vlan 30 with multimode

    -interface PIX DMZ connected to fa0/24 switchport

    -attached host to switchport fa0/10 172.16.1.55 (vlan 1)

    PIX:

    Auto interface ethernet2

    logical ethernet2 vlan30 interface

    nameif DMZ security50 ethernet2

    nameif vlan30 dmz2 security50

    -192.168.100.1 cannot ping the PIX to the 192.168.100.254 or anything else besides.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated. Also, I realize that I could buy a four port NIC and use the physical interfaces, but I can't get the approved purchase.

    Creation of VLANS on Ethernet1

    We want to create a new interface VLAN - VLAN30 and name DMZ2. Also affect the security level 50 in it.

    Step 1: Create a physical Interface:

    PIX (config) # interface ethernet1 vlan2 physical

    Step 2: Name the Interface and set the security level:

    PIX (config) # nameif ethernet1 inside the security100

    Step 3: Assign the IP address of the interface:

    PIX (config) # ip inside 192.168.1.1 address 255.255.255.0

    Step 4: Create the logical Interface:

    PIX (config) # interface ethernet1 vlan30 logical

    Step 5: Name of the Interface and set the security level:

    PIX (config) # nameif vlan30 DMZ2 security50

    Step 6: Assign IP address to the interface:

    IP pix (config) # DMZ2 192.168.100.254 255.255.255.0

    Step 7. Switch, set the port where from the inside, to the Isls or dot1q physical interface. Place the sheath in the native vlan2 as in step 1.

  • Connection interface ASA inside and DMZ

    Hello

    I'm moving my current Internet/VPN link to a double link on different ASA and ISP providers.

    I want to create an INTERIOR on my ASA 5545 x interface that will connect directly to my Nexus 7 k Distribution or tanks

    The interface inside the ASA5520 is currently a virtual local network that was created on the Nexus 7 k.

    It seems simple enough to follow this same design, but using the different VLANs and the intellectual property regime.

    I also need to create an interface DMZ on the SAA on my distribution of Nexus 7 K device.

    Currently the ASA5520 DMZ interface comes from a VLAN that was created on the SAA and then to shared resources

    It seems simple enough to follow this same design, but using the different VLANs and the intellectual property regime.

    Is there a best practice approach document or advise that someone would pass along

    Models reference Cisco Secure Data center not dier DMZ. However, it is a very common configuration for the ASAs.

    Real wrinkles come in on the side of switch. You have the option to use physically separate switches (which you have already decided not to do), and a core of Nexus 7 k, the next option is to know how to separate the DMZ and the inside of the safe areas. The most secure, with a standard kernel k 7 would be to create a second VDC for the DMZ with no layer 3 services and have interface DMZ of the SAA to be the default gateway for hosts. A second option on the 7 k would be to stick with a VDC but put the DMZ VLAN charge either in their own VRF or simply once again make L2 only on the SAA with the ASA being the L3 bridge.

    There are several other approaches that you could take, but those that I have just described is the most commonly used.

  • Access to resources on the inside and DMZ problem

    Hi Techies,

    Could you people point me in the right direction please.

    Abdul, is solved your problem, have you tried suggested missing statements in your config... Let us know if any questions.

    Concerning

  • Does not work from inside the DMZ after configuring the ACL.

    Hello

    According to the concept of ASA, trafuc of the Interior (100 s) DMZ (50 Sec) is allowed by default. When I try to write an acl (host to host block) on the Interface inside, no other traffic runs to and from the Interface on the inside.

    Everything is blocked. Previously no ACL has been mapped to the inside Interface.

    Kindly help me to solve this problem and also provide the document concerning the behavior of the firewall before and after configuring the ACL.

    Poster of the acl that you entered. Remember, there is an explicit deny a whole at the end of the acl. So if you want only to prevent access to a dmz machine, then it must be written correctly. Leave what you want enable dmz, deny the rest of the demilitarized zone, and then leave all the rest.

  • DMZ web server-&gt; inside the database server

    Suppose that a network topology looks like this:

    A PIX with 3 interfaces:

    interface (private public static IP 10.10.10.1)

    interface (public static IP of 69.110.38.35)

    interface (static IP private address of the 30.30.30.1)

    --------------------------------------------

    The internal network has a {server} with the IP address of 10.10.10.2.

    The DMZ has a {web server} with the IP address of 30.30.30.2.

    I will welcome external guests (outside) access to the web server (30.30.30.2) via port 80.

    This web server access turn the database server (10.10.10.2).

    Assume that all other commands are issued. Then, I'll create an access list that allows server WWW DMZ to communicate with inside the database server.

    access-list dmz-to-inside permit tcp host 30.30.30.2 host 10.10.10.2 eq 1521

    Should I publish the following, too:

    (1) access-list dmz permit tcp host 30.30.30.2 no matter what 80 eq

    (2) access-group in interface dmz dmz

    (3) static (inside the dmz) 10.10.10.0 10.10.10.0 netmask 255.255.255.0

    xlate clear 4)

    If so, what each of them do?

    Thank you for helping.

    Scott

    1. Yes, the static statement "10.10.10.0 static (inside, dmz) 10.10.10.0 netmask 255.255.255.0" will disable NAT. Although it is not necessary to disable nat, however, it saves money and simple to manage. the reason for this is the traffic between the dmz and inside is private, there is therefore not necessary to apply the public ip address.

    2 pix receives the package intended to 30.30.30.2 10.10.10.2. PIX examines the static statement and based on the static above statement, pix will not nat package (i.e. pix will leave the soruce address be) and send it to 30.30.30.2 via the interface of the demilitarized zone.

    for example

    original package - source 10.10.10.2, destination 30.30.30.2

    After pix - source 10.10.10.2, destination 30.30.30.2

    3. the "Clear xlate" command must be issued whenever the nat/global or static has been added/deleted/modified. This command is to force the pix to clear the existing ip translation.

    for example, before you add the command "static 1.1.1.1 (indoor, outdoor) 192.168.1.100 netmask 255.255.255.255", the pix may already have an ip 192.168.1.100 translation (it might come from the nat/global). now, after you apply the static command, the pix will keep the existing translation for a certain period time. 'clear xlate' is needed to erase the old translation and so to activate the new static statement.

  • DMZ inside

    This question is about the Pix Version 6.3 (3) on a 515E with three interfaces. My apologies if this topic is covered well elsewhere, I had no chance to find it.

    I have configured three interfaces in a basic outside, inside, the mode dmz with the routable IP addresses and no need or desire to use NAT. No matter how to address the problem, if I try to configure rules to allow the guests to the DMZ access to specific services on the segment from the inside, the rule of implicit outgoing traffic to DMZ gets crushed and any other outbound traffic from the DMZ fell. If I try to overcome with a permitted any IP any ACL for DMZ outside, it allows all traffic from the DMZ to the inside - rather defeat the purpose of separating these segments.

    I tried to come to the Pix from different angles and without making contact with the eyes, but no matter how I go about it, I can't seem to create rules to allow certain DMZ-> domestic traffic without blowing DMZ-> outside communication.

    Am I missing something fundamental here? Any help will be most appreciated.

    Graham

    Hello Greyhame,

    I understand the problem. you want to allow some host on the DMZ for access inside the servers and at the same time you want anything on the DMZ to access to the outside, but not inside except the specific host access. It is possible. Let me give you an example of configuration rules that you can modify according to your ip address.

    lets take and example that inside is network 192.168.1.0 subnet and dmz on 172.16.1.0 and outside as 63.97.45.0

    We have inside the server with ip address 192.168.1.10 is who should be the dmz 172.16.1.5 host access

    Here is the access-list command, you need to apply on the dmz interface so that you can access inside the 192.198.1.10 172.16.1.5 dmz host server and you want to permit 172.16.1.0 to access the internet but no one else except 172.16.1.5 to gain access inside the subnet.

    Please, try the following command:

    access-list permits dmz_in tcp host 172.16.1.5 host 192.168.1.10 eq www

    deny the dmz_in of the ip access list any 192.168.1.0

    dmz_in ip access list allow a whole

    Access-group dmz_in in dmz interface

    If you see the first access list, it would allow access inside the dmz server host. The second command would deny the rest of the demilitarized zone to access the network except the one mentioned above, inside as access-list is read from top to bottom and then applied. The third command would only allow traffic from the DMZ go outside.

    If you have any questions, feel free to contact me.

    Thank you best regards &,.
