Can I use XC as a TCP proxy and DDoS Protection?
Hello, experts! I’m a longtime BIG-IP user but a complete newbie to XC. I have a task and would love some guidance on the best way to approach it. The goal is to use XC as a TCP proxy and for DDoS protection. The scenario: A client has a distributed network of ATMs that connect to a server. XC should sit in front of the server as a TCP proxy. The requests come in via IP. A few questions: Which XC product should I use for this? TCP Load Balancer requires requests to come via a domain name, correct? Would I need a dedicated IP from XC in this case? Can DDoS protection be applied in this setup? Am I thinking about this correctly? Any insights or recommendations would be greatly appreciated!Advanced WAF v16.0 - Declarative API
Since v15.1 (in draft), F5® BIG-IP® Advanced WAF™ can import Declarative WAF policy in JSON format. The F5® BIG-IP® Advanced Web Application Firewall (Advanced WAF) security policies can be deployed using the declarative JSON format, facilitating easy integration into a CI/CD pipeline. The declarative policies are extracted from a source control system, for example Git, and imported into the BIG-IP. Using the provided declarative policy templates, you can modify the necessary parameters, save the JSON file, and import the updated security policy into your BIG-IP devices. The declarative policy copies the content of the template and adds the adjustments and modifications on to it. The templates therefore allow you to concentrate only on the specific settings that need to be adapted for the specific application that the policy protects. This Declarative WAF JSON policy is similar to NGINX App Protect policy. You can find more information on the Declarative Policy here : NAP : https://docs.nginx.com/nginx-app-protect/policy/ Adv. WAF : https://techdocs.f5.com/en-us/bigip-15-1-0/big-ip-declarative-security-policy.html Audience This guide is written for IT professionals who need to automate their WAF policy and are familiar with Advanced WAF configuration. These IT professionals can fill a variety of roles: SecOps deploying and maintaining WAF policy in Advanced WAF DevOps deploying applications in modern environment and willing to integrate Advanced WAF in their CI/CD pipeline F5 partners who sell technology or create implementation documentation This article covers how to PUSH/PULL a declarative WAF policy in Advanced WAF: With Postman With AS3 Table of contents Upload Policy in BIG-IP Check the import Apply the policy OpenAPI Spec File import AS3 declaration CI/CD integration Find the Policy-ID Update an existing policy Video demonstration First of all, you need a JSON WAF policy, as below : { "policy": { "name": "policy-api-arcadia", "description": "Arcadia API", "template": { "name": "POLICY_TEMPLATE_API_SECURITY" }, "enforcementMode": "blocking", "server-technologies": [ { "serverTechnologyName": "MySQL" }, { "serverTechnologyName": "Unix/Linux" }, { "serverTechnologyName": "MongoDB" } ], "signature-settings": { "signatureStaging": false }, "policy-builder": { "learnOnlyFromNonBotTraffic": false } } } 1. Upload Policy in BIG-IP There are 2 options to upload a JSON file into the BIG-IP: 1.1 Either you PUSH the file into the BIG-IP and you IMPORT IT OR 1.2 the BIG-IP PULL the file from a repository (and the IMPORT is included) <- BEST option 1.1 PUSH JSON file into the BIG-IP The call is below. As you can notice, it requires a 'Content-Range' header. And the value is 0-(filesize-1)/filesize. In the example below, the file size is 662 bytes. This is not easy to integrate in a CICD pipeline, so we created the PULL method instead of the PUSH (in v16.0) curl --location --request POST 'https://10.1.1.12/mgmt/tm/asm/file-transfer/uploads/policy-api.json' \ --header 'Content-Range: 0-661/662' \ --header 'Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4=' \ --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \ --data-binary '@/C:/Users/user/Desktop/policy-api.json' At this stage, the policy is still a file in the BIG-IP file system. We need to import it into Adv. WAF. To do so, the next call is required. This call import the file "policy-api.json" uploaded previously. An CREATE the policy /Common/policy-api-arcadia curl --location --request POST 'https://10.1.1.12/mgmt/tm/asm/tasks/import-policy/' \ --header 'Content-Type: application/javascript' \ --header 'Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4=' \ --data-raw '{ "filename":"policy-api.json", "policy": { "fullPath":"/Common/policy-api-arcadia" } }' 1.2 PULL JSON file from a repository Here, the JSON file is hosted somewhere (in Gitlab or Github ...). And the BIG-IP will pull it. The call is below. As you can notice, the call refers to the remote repo and the body is a JSON payload. Just change the link value with your JSON policy URL. With one call, the policy is PULLED and IMPORTED. curl --location --request POST 'https://10.1.1.12/mgmt/tm/asm/tasks/import-policy/' \ --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \ --header 'Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4=' \ --data-raw '{ "fileReference": { "link": "http://10.1.20.4/root/as3-waf/-/raw/master/policy-api.json" } }' A second version of this call exists, and refer to the fullPath of the policy. This will allow you to update the policy, from a second version of the JSON file, easily. One call for the creation and the update. As you can notice below, we add the "policy":"fullPath" directive. The value of the "fullPath" is the partition and the name of the policy set in the JSON policy file. This method is VERY USEFUL for CI/CD integrations. curl --location --request POST 'https://10.1.1.12/mgmt/tm/asm/tasks/import-policy/' \ --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \ --header 'Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4=' \ --data-raw '{ "fileReference": { "link": "http://10.1.20.4/root/as3-waf/-/raw/master/policy-api.json" }, "policy": { "fullPath":"/Common/policy-api-arcadia" } }' 2. Check the IMPORT Check if the IMPORT worked. To do so, run the next call. curl --location --request GET 'https://10.1.1.12/mgmt/tm/asm/tasks/import-policy/' \ --header 'Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4=' \ You should see a 200 OK, with the content below (truncated in this example). Please notice the "status":"COMPLETED". { "kind": "tm:asm:tasks:import-policy:import-policy-taskcollectionstate", "selfLink": "https://localhost/mgmt/tm/asm/tasks/import-policy?ver=16.0.0", "totalItems": 11, "items": [ { "isBase64": false, "executionStartTime": "2020-07-21T15:50:22Z", "status": "COMPLETED", "lastUpdateMicros": 1.595346627e+15, "getPolicyAttributesOnly": false, ... From now, your policy is imported and created in the BIG-IP. You can assign it to a VS as usual (Imperative Call or AS3 Call). But in the next session, I will show you how to create a Service with AS3 including the WAF policy. 3. APPLY the policy As you may know, a WAF policy needs to be applied after each change. This is the call. curl --location --request POST 'https://10.1.1.12/mgmt/tm/asm/tasks/apply-policy/' \ --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \ --header 'Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4=' \ --data-raw '{"policy":{"fullPath":"/Common/policy-api-arcadia"}}' 4. OpenAPI spec file IMPORT As you know, Adv. WAF supports OpenAPI spec (2.0 and 3.0). Now, with the declarative WAF, we can import the OAS file as well. The BEST solution, is to PULL the OAS file from a repo. And in most of the customer' projects, it will be the case. In the example below, the OAS file is hosted in SwaggerHub (Github for Swagger files). But the file could reside in a private Gitlab repo for instance. The URL of the project is : https://app.swaggerhub.com/apis/F5EMEASSA/Arcadia-OAS3/1.0.0-oas3 The URL of the OAS file is : https://api.swaggerhub.com/apis/F5EMEASSA/Arcadia-OAS3/1.0.0-oas3 This swagger file (OpenAPI 3.0 Spec file) includes all the application URL and parameters. What's more, it includes the documentation (for NGINX APIm Dev Portal). Now, it is pretty easy to create a WAF JSON Policy with API Security template, referring to the OAS file. Below, you can notice the new section "open-api-files" with the link reference to SwaggerHub. And the new template POLICY_TEMPLATE_API_SECURITY. Now, when I upload / import and apply the policy, Adv. WAF will download the OAS file from SwaggerHub and create the policy based on API_Security template. { "policy": { "name": "policy-api-arcadia", "description": "Arcadia API", "template": { "name": "POLICY_TEMPLATE_API_SECURITY" }, "enforcementMode": "blocking", "server-technologies": [ { "serverTechnologyName": "MySQL" }, { "serverTechnologyName": "Unix/Linux" }, { "serverTechnologyName": "MongoDB" } ], "signature-settings": { "signatureStaging": false }, "policy-builder": { "learnOnlyFromNonBotTraffic": false }, "open-api-files": [ { "link": "https://api.swaggerhub.com/apis/F5EMEASSA/Arcadia-OAS3/1.0.0-oas3" } ] } } 5. AS3 declaration Now, it is time to learn how we can do all of these steps in one call with AS3 (3.18 minimum). The documentation is here : https://clouddocs.f5.com/products/extensions/f5-appsvcs-extension/latest/declarations/application-security.html?highlight=waf_policy#virtual-service-referencing-an-external-security-policy With this AS3 declaration, we: Import the WAF policy from a external repo Import the Swagger file (if the WAF policy refers to an OAS file) from an external repo Create the service { "class": "AS3", "action": "deploy", "persist": true, "declaration": { "class": "ADC", "schemaVersion": "3.2.0", "id": "Prod_API_AS3", "API-Prod": { "class": "Tenant", "defaultRouteDomain": 0, "API": { "class": "Application", "template": "generic", "VS_API": { "class": "Service_HTTPS", "remark": "Accepts HTTPS/TLS connections on port 443", "virtualAddresses": ["10.1.10.27"], "redirect80": false, "pool": "pool_NGINX_API_AS3", "policyWAF": { "use": "Arcadia_WAF_API_policy" }, "securityLogProfiles": [{ "bigip": "/Common/Log all requests" }], "profileTCP": { "egress": "wan", "ingress": { "use": "TCP_Profile" } }, "profileHTTP": { "use": "custom_http_profile" }, "serverTLS": { "bigip": "/Common/arcadia_client_ssl" } }, "Arcadia_WAF_API_policy": { "class": "WAF_Policy", "url": "http://10.1.20.4/root/as3-waf-api/-/raw/master/policy-api.json", "ignoreChanges": true }, "pool_NGINX_API_AS3": { "class": "Pool", "monitors": ["http"], "members": [{ "servicePort": 8080, "serverAddresses": ["10.1.20.9"] }] }, "custom_http_profile": { "class": "HTTP_Profile", "xForwardedFor": true }, "TCP_Profile": { "class": "TCP_Profile", "idleTimeout": 60 } } } } } 6. CI/CID integration As you can notice, it is very easy to create a service with a WAF policy pulled from an external repo. So, it is easy to integrate these calls (or the AS3 call) into a CI/CD pipeline. Below, an Ansible playbook example. This playbook run the AS3 call above. That's it :) --- - hosts: bigip connection: local gather_facts: false vars: my_admin: "admin" my_password: "admin" bigip: "10.1.1.12" tasks: - name: Deploy AS3 WebApp uri: url: "https://{{ bigip }}/mgmt/shared/appsvcs/declare" method: POST headers: "Content-Type": "application/json" "Authorization": "Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4=" body: "{{ lookup('file','as3.json') }}" body_format: json validate_certs: no status_code: 200 7. FIND the Policy-ID When the policy is created, a Policy-ID is assigned. By default, this ID doesn't appear anywhere. Neither in the GUI, nor in the response after the creation. You have to calculate it or ask for it. This ID is required for several actions in a CI/CD pipeline. 7.1 Calculate the Policy-ID We created this python script to calculate the Policy-ID. It is an hash from the Policy name (including the partition). For the previous created policy named "/Common/policy-api-arcadia", the policy ID is "Ar5wrwmFRroUYsMA6DuxlQ" Paste this python code in a new waf-policy-id.py file, and run the command python waf-policy-id.py "/Common/policy-api-arcadia" Outcome will be The Policy-ID for /Common/policy-api-arcadia is: Ar5wrwmFRroUYsMA6DuxlQ #!/usr/bin/python from hashlib import md5 import base64 import sys pname = sys.argv[1] print 'The Policy-ID for', sys.argv[1], 'is:', base64.b64encode(md5(pname.encode()).digest()).replace("=", "") 7.2 Retrieve the Policy-ID and fullPath with a REST API call Make this call below, and you will see in the response, all the policy creations. Find yours and collect the PolicyReference directive. The Policy-ID is in the link value "link": "https://localhost/mgmt/tm/asm/policies/Ar5wrwmFRroUYsMA6DuxlQ?ver=16.0.0" You can see as well, at the end of the definition, the "fileReference" referring to the JSON file pulled by the BIG-IP. And please notice the "fullPath", required if you want to update your policy curl --location --request GET 'https://10.1.1.12/mgmt/tm/asm/tasks/import-policy/' \ --header 'Content-Range: 0-601/601' \ --header 'Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4=' \ { "isBase64": false, "executionStartTime": "2020-07-22T11:23:42Z", "status": "COMPLETED", "lastUpdateMicros": 1.595417027e+15, "getPolicyAttributesOnly": false, "kind": "tm:asm:tasks:import-policy:import-policy-taskstate", "selfLink": "https://localhost/mgmt/tm/asm/tasks/import-policy/B45J0ySjSJ9y9fsPZ2JNvA?ver=16.0.0", "filename": "", "policyReference": { "link": "https://localhost/mgmt/tm/asm/policies/Ar5wrwmFRroUYsMA6DuxlQ?ver=16.0.0", "fullPath": "/Common/policy-api-arcadia" }, "endTime": "2020-07-22T11:23:47Z", "startTime": "2020-07-22T11:23:42Z", "id": "B45J0ySjSJ9y9fsPZ2JNvA", "retainInheritanceSettings": false, "result": { "policyReference": { "link": "https://localhost/mgmt/tm/asm/policies/Ar5wrwmFRroUYsMA6DuxlQ?ver=16.0.0", "fullPath": "/Common/policy-api-arcadia" }, "message": "The operation was completed successfully. The security policy name is '/Common/policy-api-arcadia'. " }, "fileReference": { "link": "http://10.1.20.4/root/as3-waf/-/raw/master/policy-api.json" } }, 8 UPDATE an existing policy It is pretty easy to update the WAF policy from a new JSON file version. To do so, collect from the previous call 7.2 Retrieve the Policy-ID and fullPath with a REST API call the "Policy" and "fullPath" directive. This is the path of the Policy in the BIG-IP. Then run the call below, same as 1.2 PULL JSON file from a repository, but add the Policy and fullPath directives Don't forget to APPLY this new version of the policy 3. APPLY the policy curl --location --request POST 'https://10.1.1.12/mgmt/tm/asm/tasks/import-policy/' \ --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \ --header 'Authorization: Basic YWRtaW46YWRtaW4=' \ --data-raw '{ "fileReference": { "link": "http://10.1.20.4/root/as3-waf/-/raw/master/policy-api.json" }, "policy": { "fullPath":"/Common/policy-api-arcadia" } }' TIP : this call, above, can be used in place of the FIRST call when we created the policy "1.2 PULL JSON file from a repository". But be careful, the fullPath is the name set in the JSON policy file. The 2 values need to match: "name": "policy-api-arcadia" in the JSON Policy file pulled by the BIG-IP "policy":"fullPath" in the POST call 9 Video demonstration In order to help you to understand how it looks with the BIG-IP, I created this video covering 4 topics explained in this article : The JSON WAF policy Pull the policy from a remote repository Update the WAF policy with a new version of the declarative JSON file Deploy a full service with AS3 and Declarative WAF policy At the end of this video, you will be able to adapt the REST Declarative API calls to your infrastructure, in order to deploy protected services with your CI/CD pipelines.

Acronyms, are used all the time and the author /presentor is usually convinced that everyone in the audience understands what they mean, but every once in a while you hear or read something that you are not sure of the meaning. We are all professionals, that do not want to look like we are the only one in the room who does not know. So after hearing a talk or reading an article we often find ourselves looking it up; this can become confusing because acronyms mean different things when we search outside our field. For example CE what does it mean? The letters "CE" are the abbreviation of French phrase "Conformité Européene" which literally means "European Conformity". In the dictionary you will probably find CE meaning Common Era or Christian Era. When looking for a more modern meaning, we will find it may mean Consumer Electronics. But here in our community, when someone writes CE, they mean Customer Edge. Here, you have, at your fingertips a list of acronyms, unconfused with other fields. Please let me know if I missed any acronyms so I can add them to our list.
