  1. IF-MAP and GENIRichard Kagan – Infoblox

  2. Recurring Metadata Exchange Challenges in GENI • Define data models for objects • Devices, aggregates, slices, experiments, measurements, … • Create associated schemas • Enable data sharing at varying levels of scale • Within & across slices, aggregates, control frameworks, etc. • Accommodate a number of desired characteristics, e.g.: • Expressive, extensible modeling language • Frequent/rapid schema changes • Scalable and real-time • Message bus and database services • Multi-layer security (authentication, authorization, transport security, etc.) • Easy to implement & debug, available/tested code, supported, …

  3. IF-MAP Can Address Many GENI Requirements • IF-MAP = “Interface to Metadata Access Point” • Open standard published by the Trusted Computing Group (TCG) • Version 1.0 released in 2008, 1.1 in 2009, 2.0 in 2010 • Key features: • Client/server protocol, very lightweight client • Pub/sub paradigm, with or without persistence (e.g. bus and database) • All objects & metadata expressed as XML documents • Current binding is to SOAP/HTTPS; Other bindings supported (e.g. SOAPless) • Graph database with no pre-defined global schema • Automatic correlation • Federation, authorization, … • Available in open-source and commercial implementations • Used in production today (Boeing, LANL, Deutsche Bank, etc.)

  4. A Network Security Use Case: Dynamic, Policy-Based Access Control for Unmanaged Endpoints MAP Database 192.0.2.7 10- Endpoint requests DHCP identity = John MAC = 00:11:22:33:44:55 1- Endpoint plugs-in 2- SW sends EAP Start 14- Endpoint generates traffic 3- Supplicant sends credentials Juniper IC 4000 UAC Access-request-mac 11-DHCP sends MAC-IP metadata to MAP 9- SW opens port Infobox HA Pair DHCP/DNS Appliance IP-MAC 8- UAC sends RADIUS accept to SW Authenticated-as 4- SW sends RADIUS Credential to UAC Infobox HA Pair MAP Server 6- UAC publishes To MAP Juniper SSG Firewall IP= 192.0.2.7 13- UAC activates L3 access on FW. 7- UAC subscribes to MAP AAA 12-MAP sends IP-MAC to UAC Cisco 3750 Switch Access-request = 113:3 CHANGE? CHANGE! 5- UAC does Auth. Lookup User= John Windows 802.1X Client 00:11:22:33:44:55 Capability = access-private-applications Private Applications IF-MAP

  5. IF-MAP Federation for Next Gen EDUROAM Service • EDUROAM enables students/faculty/researchers to get network access away from home • JANET (UK ISP for .edu) needs to track roaming activity without direct access to .edu AAA systems • -Local RADSEC servers publish user/location data to local MAP server • -JANET’s central MAP server subscribes to changes on university MAP servers Univ A Univ B JANET RADSEC RADSEC Jjames, Roaming from University B OK!

  12. IF-MAP Access Operations Tell others that…<metadata…> • Publish: • Clients store metadata into MAP for others to see • Example: Authentication server publishes when a user logs in (or out) • Search: • Clients retrieve published metadata associated with a particular identifier and linked identifiers • Example: An application can request the current physical location of the user • Subscribe: • Clients request asynchronous results for searches that match when others publish new metadata • Example: Tell me when any user’s status goes from “employee” to “terminated” • *Notify (a special case of ‘Publish’): • Clients publish metadata, usually transient events, that are not stored in the MAP database (but they trigger subscriptions – like a message bus) Tell me if…match(metadata pattern) Tell me when…match(metadata pattern)

  16. Vendor and Open Source Support for IF-MAP is Growing Additional vendors are working with IF-MAP (e.g. Arista, Aruba, …) CONFIDENTIAL

  17. Dynamic Network Security Use Cases in Fed, Finance and Manufacturing Verticals are Driving Adoption

  18. IF-MAP is Being Actively Pursued in Key Academic & Commercial Research Programs

  21. IF-MAP Server: Identifiers, Links, and Metadata Identifiers Metadata Link

  22. The IF-MAP Standard has Multiple Parts • The official TCG standard is divided into two categories: • IF-MAP “Base Protocol” (only one spec) • IF-MAP Metadata for <XXX> (where XXX=some industry or use case) • The Base Protocol specifies basic IF-MAP operations: • Publish, Subscribe, Search, Session Management, etc. • Also defines the 5 standard Identifier Types: • Identity (i.e User – 12 different possibilities including email address, FQDN, Kerberos principal, etc.) • IP Address (v4 or v6) • MAC address (AA:BB:CC:DD:EE) • Access Request (Authenticator ID, Flow ID) • Device (ASCII String) • Metadata specs are published independently from the Base Protocol • Today, one spec has been published: IF-MAP Metadata for Network Security 1.0 • Others are in process: • IF-MAP Metadata for Industrial Control Systems • IF-MAP Metadata for Trusted Multitenant Infrastructure (i.e. Clouds) • Any vendor, customer or industry group can define their own metadata

  23. Users and Vendors can Define Metadata at Runtime • Any compliant IF-MAP server will accept user-defined metadata • All that is required is a unique name within a specified namespace, and conformance with a few simple rules (number of attributes, length, etc.) • IF-MAP server will support all operations: publish, subscribe, search, notify • No need to configure IF-MAP server to support custom metadata • Some examples of user and industry-defined metadata • Student ID (for University XYZ) • Asset tag number (for company ABC) • Software Version # (for vendor PQR) • Operating Parameters 1,2,3,4,…. (for product PPP) • If an industry group agrees, they can submit metadata definitions to the TCG for publication as “IF-MAP Metadata for <My Industry> • No need to wait for TCG ratification to use custom metdata • This is a VERY powerful feature of IF-MAP

  24. IF-MAP Sample Use Cases

  25. Use Case – Integrated Network / Physical Security Solution Secure Zone 1 Zone 2 MAP Database Juniper IC 4000 UAC Appliance location = Zone 2 location = Zone 1 Hirsch System (Physical Sensor) authenticated identity = John Publish: John in Zone 1 Access Request Publish: John in Zone 2 Infoblox MAP Server Cisco 3750 Switch CHANGE? CHANGE! Grants Access Request Publish: John is Authenticated; Session ID 113:3 Subscribe: Changes to Session 113:3 Policy Violation: Access Cut Off Access-request = 113:3 Juniper SSG Firewall Subscription Update: John in Zone 2 Publish (delete): John is Authenticated Classified Network 11- UAC updates firewall policy to block access 10- MAP updates UAC about the location change 9- Card reader publishes the update to the MAP 8- Employee leaves Zone 1, while still logged in 7- Employee connects to the classified network 4- UAC publishes to the MAP server 5- UAC Subscribes to the MAP server 2- Hirsch system publishes to the MAP server 12- UAC publishes the update to the MAP 6- UAC grants access to the corporate network 3- Employee requests for access to the network 1- Employee (John) enters zone 1
