+Firewall on Demand
+==================
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+Firewall on Demand applies, via Netconf, flow rules to a network device.
+These rules are then propagated via e-bgp to peering routers. Each user
+is authenticated against shibboleth. Authorization is performed via a
+combination of a Shibboleth attribute and the peer network address range
+that the user originates from. FoD is meant to operate over this
+architecture:
+
+ +-----------+ +------------+ +------------+
+ | FoD | NETCONF | flowspec | ebgp | router |
+ | web app +----------> device +--------> |
+ +-----------+ +------+-----+ +------------+
+ | ebgp
+ |
+ +------v-----+
+ | router |
+ | |
+ +------------+
+
+NETCONF is chosen as the mgmt protocol to apply rules to a single
+flowspec capable device. Rules are then propagated via igbp to all
+flowspec capable routers. Of course FoD could apply rules directly (via
+NETCONF always) to a router and then ibgp would do the rest. In GRNET’s
+case the flowspec capable device is an EX4200.
+
+> **attention**
+>
+> Make sure your FoD server has ssh access to your flowspec device.

+
+Installation
+============
+
+Debian Wheezy (x64) - Django 1.4.x
+----------------------------------
+
+This guide assumes that installation is carried out in /srv/flowspy
+directory. If other directory is to be used, please change the
+corresponding configuration files. It is also assumed that the root user
+will perform every action.
+
+### Upgrading from v\<1.1.x
+
+> **note**
+>
+> If PEER\_\*\_TABLE tables are set to FALSE in settings.py, you need to
+> perform the south migrations per application:
+>
+> ./manage.py migrate longerusername
+> ./manage.py migrate flowspec
+> ./manage.py migrate accounts
+
+If upgrading from flowspy version \<1.1.x pay attention to settings.py
+changes. Also, do not forget to run if PEER\_\*\_TABLE tables are set to
+TRUE in settings.py:
+
+ ./manage.py migrate
+
+to catch-up with latest database changes.
+
+### Upgrading from v\<1.0.x
+
+If upgrading from flowspy version \<1.0.x pay attention to settings.py
+changes. Also, do not forget to run:
+
+ ./manage.py migrate
+
+to catch-up with latest database changes.
+
+### Required system packages
+
+Update and install the required packages:
+
+ apt-get update
+ apt-get upgrade
+ apt-get install mysql-server apache2 memcached libapache2-mod-proxy-html gunicorn beanstalkd python-django python-django-south python-django-tinymce tinymce python-mysqldb python-yaml python-memcache python-django-registration python-ipaddr python-lxml mysql-client git python-django-celery python-paramiko python-gevent vim
+
+Also, django rest framework package is required. In debian Wheezy it is
+not available, but one can install it via pip.
+
+> **note**
+>
+> Set username and password for mysql if used
+
+> **note**
+>
+> If you wish to deploy an outgoing mail server, now it is time to do
+> it. Otherwise you could set FoD to send out mails via a third party
+> account
+
+### Create a database
+
+If you are using mysql, you should create a database:
+
+ mysql -u root -p -e 'create database fod'
+
+### Required application packages
+
+Get the required packages and their dependencies and install them:
+
+ apt-get install libxml2-dev libxslt-dev gcc python-dev
+
+- ncclient: NETCONF python client:
+
+ cd ~
+ git clone https://github.com/leopoul/ncclient.git
+ cd ncclient
+ python setup.py install
+
+- nxpy: Python Objects from/to XML proxy:
+
+ cd ~
+ git clone https://code.grnet.gr/git/nxpy
+ cd nxpy
+ python setup.py install
+
+- flowspy: core application. Installation is done at /srv/flowspy:
+
+ cd /srv
+ git clone https://code.grnet.gr/git/flowspy
+ cd flowspy
+
+Application configuration
+=========================
+
+Copy settings.py.dist to settings.py:
+
+ cd flowspy
+ cp settings.py.dist settings.py
+
+Edit settings.py file and set the following according to your
+configuration:
+
+ ADMINS: set your admin name and email (assuming that your server can send notifications)
+ DATABASES (to point to your local database). You could use views instead of tables for models: peer, peercontacts, peernetworks. For this to work we suggest MySQL with MyISAM db engine
+ SECRET_KEY : Make this unique, and don't share it with anybody
+ STATIC_ROOT: /srv/flowspy/static (or your installation directory)
+ STATIC_URL (static media directory) . If you have followed the above this should be: /srv/flowspy/static
+ TEMPLATE_DIRS : If you have followed the above this should be: /srv/flowspy/templates
+ CACHE_BACKEND: Enable Memcached for production or leave to DummyCache for development environments
+ Alternatively you could go for redis with the corresponding Django client lib.
+ NETCONF_DEVICE (tested with Juniper EX4200 but any BGP enabled Juniper should work). This is the flowspec capable device
+ NETCONF_USER (enable ssh and netconf on device)
+ NETCONF_PASS
+ If beanstalk is selected the following should be left intact.
+ BROKER_HOST (beanstalk host)
+ BROKER_PORT (beanstalk port)
+ SERVER_EMAIL
+ EMAIL_SUBJECT_PREFIX
+ If beanstalk is selected the following should be left intact.
+ BROKER_URL (beanstalk url)
+ SHIB_AUTH_ENTITLEMENT (if you go for Shibboleth authentication)
+ NOTIFY_ADMIN_MAILS (bcc mail addresses)
+ PROTECTED_SUBNETS (subnets for which source or destination address will prevent rule creation and notify the NOTIFY_ADMIN_MAILS)
+ The whois client is meant to be used in case you have inserted peers with their ASes in the peers table and wish to get network info for each one in an automated manner.
+ PRIMARY_WHOIS
+ ALTERNATE_WHOIS
+ If you wish to deploy FoD with Shibboleth change the following attributes according to your setup:
+ SHIB_AUTH_ENTITLEMENT = 'urn:mace'
+ SHIB_ADMIN_DOMAIN = 'example.com'
+ SHIB_LOGOUT_URL = 'https://example.com/Shibboleth.sso/Logout'
+ SHIB_USERNAME = ['HTTP_EPPN']
+ SHIB_MAIL = ['mail', 'HTTP_MAIL', 'HTTP_SHIB_INETORGPERSON_MAIL']
+ SHIB_FIRSTNAME = ['HTTP_SHIB_INETORGPERSON_GIVENNAME']
+ SHIB_LASTNAME = ['HTTP_SHIB_PERSON_SURNAME']
+ SHIB_ENTITLEMENT = ['HTTP_SHIB_EP_ENTITLEMENT']
+
+If you have not installed an outgoing mail server you can always use
+your own account (either corporate or gmail, hotmail ,etc) by adding the
+following lines in settings.py:
+
+ EMAIL_USE_TLS = True #(or False)
+ EMAIL_HOST = 'smtp.example.com'
+ EMAIL_HOST_USER = 'username'
+ EMAIL_HOST_PASSWORD = 'yourpassword'
+ EMAIL_PORT = 587 #(outgoing)
+
+It is strongly advised that you do not change the following to False
+values unless, you want to integrate FoD with you CRM or members
+database. This implies that you are able/have the rights to create
+database views between the two databases:
+
+ PEER_MANAGED_TABLE = True
+ PEER_RANGE_MANAGED_TABLE = True
+ PEER_TECHC_MANAGED_TABLE = True
+
+By doing that the corresponding tables as defined in peers/models will
+not be created. As noted above, you have to create the views that the
+tables will rely on.
+
+> **note**
+>
+> Soon we will release a version with django-registration as a means to
+> add users and Shibboleth will become an alternative
+
+Let’s move on with some copies and dir creations:
+
+ mkdir /var/log/fod
+ chown www-data.www-data /var/log/fod
+ cp urls.py.dist urls.py
+ cd ..
+
+> **note**
+>
+> LOG\_FILE\_LOCATION in settings.py is set to **/var/log/fod**. Adjust
+> the chown command above to your selected dir.
+
+System configuration
+====================
+
+Apache operates as a gunicorn Proxy with WSGI and Shibboleth modules
+enabled. Depending on the setup the apache configuration may vary:
+
+ a2enmod rewrite
+ a2enmod proxy
+ a2enmod ssl
+ a2enmod proxy_http
+
+If shibboleth is to be used:
+
+ apt-get install libapache2-mod-shib2
+ a2enmod shib2
+
+Now it is time to configure beanstalk, gunicorn, celery and apache.
+
+beanstalkd
+----------
+
+Enable beanstalk by editting /etc/default/beanstalkd:
+
+ vim /etc/default/beanstalkd
+
+Uncomment the line **START=yes** to enable beanstalk
+
+Start beanstalkd:
+
+ service beanstalkd start
+
+gunicorn.d
+----------
+
+Create and edit /etc/gunicorn.d/fod:
+
+ vim /etc/gunicorn.d/fod
+
+FoD is served via gunicorn and is then proxied by Apache. If the above
+directory conventions have been followed so far, then your configuration
+should be:
+
+ CONFIG = {
+ 'mode': 'django',
+ 'working_dir': '/srv/flowspy',
+ 'args': (
+ '--bind=127.0.0.1:8081',
+ '--workers=1',
+ '--worker-class=egg:gunicorn#gevent',
+ '--timeout=30',
+ '--debug',
+ '--log-level=debug',
+ '--log-file=/var/log/gunicorn/fod.log',
+ ),
+ }
+
+celeryd
+=======
+
+Celery is used over beanstalkd to apply firewall rules in a serial
+manner so that locks are avoided on the flowspec capable device. In our
+setup celery runs via django. That is why the python-django-celery
+package was installed.
+
+Create the celeryd daemon at /etc/init.d/celeryd **if it does not
+already exist**:
+
+ vim /etc/init.d/celeryd
+
+The configuration should be:
+
+ #!/bin/sh -e
+ # ============================================
+ # celeryd - Starts the Celery worker daemon.
+ # ============================================
+ #
+ # :Usage: /etc/init.d/celeryd {start|stop|force-reload|restart|try-restart|status}

+
+celeryd configuration
+=====================
+
+celeryd requires a /etc/default/celeryd file to be in place. Thus we are
+going to create this file (/etc/default/celeryd):
+
+ vim /etc/default/celeryd
+
+Again if the directory conventions have been followed the file is (pay
+attention to the CELERYD\_USER, CELERYD\_GROUP and change accordingly) :
+
+ # Default: false
+ ENABLED="true"
+
+ # Name of nodes to start, here we have a single node
+ CELERYD_NODES="w1"
+ # or we could have three nodes:
+ #CELERYD_NODES="w1 w2 w3"
+
+ # Where to chdir at start.
+ CELERYD_CHDIR="/srv/flowspy"
+ # How to call "manage.py celeryd_multi"
+ CELERYD_MULTI="python $CELERYD_CHDIR/manage.py celeryd_multi"
+
+ # How to call "manage.py celeryctl"
+ CELERYCTL="python $CELERYD_CHDIR/manage.py celeryctl"
+
+ # Extra arguments to celeryd
+ #CELERYD_OPTS="--time-limit=300 --concurrency=8"
+ CELERYD_OPTS="-E -B --schedule=/var/run/celery/celerybeat-schedule --concurrency=1 --soft-time-limit=180 --time-limit=1800"
+ # Name of the celery config module.
+ CELERY_CONFIG_MODULE="celeryconfig"
+
+ # %n will be replaced with the nodename.
+ CELERYD_LOG_FILE="/var/log/celery/fod_%n.log"
+ CELERYD_PID_FILE="/var/run/celery/%n.pid"
+
+ CELERYD_USER="root"
+ CELERYD_GROUP="root"
+
+ # Name of the projects settings module.
+ export DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE="flowspy.settings"
+
+Apache
+======
+
+Apache proxies gunicorn. Things are more flexible here as you may follow
+your own configuration and conventions. Create and edit
+/etc/apache2/sites-available/fod. You should set \<server\_name\> and
+\<admin\_mail\> along with your certificates. If under testing
+environment, you can use the provided snakeoil certs. If you do not
+intent to use Shibboleth delete or comment the corresponding
+configuration parts inside **Shibboleth configuration** :
+
+ vim /etc/apache2/sites-available/fod
+
+Again if the directory conventions have been followed the file should
+be:
+
+ <VirtualHost *:80>
+ ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost
+ ServerName fod.example.com
+ DocumentRoot /var/www
+
+ ErrorLog ${APACHE_LOG_DIR}/fod_error.log
+

+
+ LogLevel warn
+
+Now, enable your site. You might want to disable the default site if fod
+is the only site you host on your server:
+
+ a2dissite default
+ a2ensite fod
+
+You are not far away from deploying FoD. When asked for a super user,
+create one:
+
+ cd /srv/flowspy
+ python manage.py syncdb
+ python manage.py migrate longerusername
+ python manage.py migrate flowspec
+ python manage.py migrate djcelery
+ python manage.py migrate accounts
+ python manage.py migrate
+
+If you have not changed the values of the PEER\_\*\_TABLE variables to
+False and thus you are going for a default installation (that is
+PEER\_\*\_TABLE variables are set to True) , then run:
+
+ python manage.py migrate peers
+
+If however you have set the PEER\_\*\_TABLE variables to False and by
+accident you have ran the command above, then you have to cleanup you
+database manually by dropping the peer\* tables plus the techc\_email
+table. For MySQL the command is:
+
+ DROP TABLE `peer`, `peer_networks`, `peer_range`, `peer_techc_emails`, techc_email;
+
+Restart, gunicorn and apache:
+
+ service gunicorn restart && service apache2 restart
+
+Propagate the flatpages
+=======================
+
+Inside the initial\_data/fixtures\_manual.xml file we have placed 4
+flatpages (2 for Greek, 2 for English) with Information and Terms of
+Service about the service. To import the flatpages, run from root
+folder:
+
+ python manage.py loaddata initial_data/fixtures_manual.xml
+
+Testing the platform
+====================
+
+Log in to the admin interface via [https:\\/\\/][]\<hostname\>/admin. Go
+to Peer ranges and add a new range (part of/or a complete subnet), eg.
+10.20.0.0/19 Go to Peers and add a new peer, eg. id: 1, name: Test, AS:
+16503, tag: TEST and move the network you have created from Avalable to
+Chosen. From the admin front, go to User, and edit your user. From the
+bottom of the page, select the TEST peer and save. Last but not least,
+modify as required the existing (example.com) Site instance (admin
+home-\>Sites). You are done. As you are logged-in via the admin, there
+is no need to go through Shibboleth at this time. Go to
+[https:\\/\\/][]\<hostname\>/ and create a new rule. Your rule should be
+applied on the flowspec capable device after aprox. 10 seconds. If no
+Shibboleth authentication is available, a
+[https:\\/\\/][]\<hostname\>/altlogin is provided.
+
+Branding
+========
+
+Via the admin interface you can modify flatpages to suit your needs
+
+Footer
+------
+
+Under the templates folder (templates), you can alter the footer.html
+file to include your own footer messages, badges, etc.
+
+Welcome Page
+------------
+
+Under the templates folder (templates), you can alter the welcome page -
+welcome.html with your own images, carousel, videos, etc.
+
+Usage
+======
+
+Web interface
+-------------------------
+FoD comes with a web interface, in which one can edit and apply new routes.
+
+Rest Api
+--------------
+
+There is a rest api available in /api/v1/. One can set new rules or see the applied ones by using it.
