  6. Everything You Know About Network Security… 1) Everything on one system is in the same security domain

  7. Everything You Know About Network Security… 2) Traffic crosses over wires and can be examined in motion

  8. …Is Wrong.

  9. Virtual Infrastructure • Virtual infrastructure separates the physical hardware from the software • CPU, memory, storage, and network resources are allocated to each VM • Each virtual machine behaves as if it has dedicated hardware Network Security

  10. XTMv Overview WatchGuard Training

  11. What is XTMv? • XTMv is a WatchGuard XTM device that runs as a VM within a virtual infrastructure. • The initial deployment process is different from other XTM devices. • Almost everything else is the same: • Fireware XTM OS • WatchGuard management tools (WSM, Web UI, and CLI) • Configuration file format WatchGuard Training

  12. XTMv Differences • Fireware XTM features not supported on XTMv: • FireCluster • Hardware diagnostics (the CLI diagnose hardware command) • Ability to automatically save a support snapshot to a connected USB drive • No front panel buttons to start the device in safe mode or recovery mode(Use the CLI command restore factory-default to start the device with factory default settings) • With XTMv, we cannot assume the hardware is known • The network administrator must allocate resources to the XTMv virtual machine. • Storage (XTMv requires ~ 3 GB disk space) • Virtual processors (CPUs) • Memory • Network adapters for each interface WatchGuard Training

  13. XTMv Editions and Licensing • WatchGuard sells four XTMv editions • Each edition has different recommended resource requirements • Each edition has different feature key limits WatchGuard Training

  14. Use Cases WatchGuard Training

  15. Use Cases • Business Use Cases • IT pre-production testing • Multi-tenancy • Colocation • Office in a Box • Networking Use Cases • Isolated network • VM gateway • Exposed WatchGuard Training

  16. Business Use Case: IT Pre-Production Testing • Create a virtual duplicate of a production environment on an ESXi host: • Networks • Servers • Applications • Test any upgrades or changes in the virtual environment first, before you make a change in the production environment WatchGuard Training

  17. Business Use Case: Multi-Tenancy Use XTMv to protect networks that belong to different organizations

  18. Business Use Case: Colocation Finance Engineering Use XTMv to protect the “internal edge” between users or applications

  19. Business Use Case: Office in a Box • A server can host VMs and virtual networks for all the servers needed to run a business office. • Email servers • Web servers • Network application servers Use XTMv to protect workloads/servers located on a single server

  20. Networking Use Case: Isolated Virtual Network • Deploy XTMv within virtual networks that do not connect to any physical interface on the ESXi host. ESXi Host WatchGuard Training

  21. Networking Use Case: Isolated Network • Deploy XTMv within a virtual network with the firewall between one or more virtual networks and a physical interface on the ESXi host. Physical Network Interface ESXi Host WatchGuard Training

  22. Networking Use Case: Exposed Network • Deploy XTMv between virtual networks that connect to different physical network interfaces on the ESXi host. Physical Network Interface ESXi Host Physical Network Interface WatchGuard Training

  23. VMware WatchGuard Training

  24. VMware Hypervisor • A hypervisor is a virtual machine manager (VMM). • The hypervisor allows multiple virtual machines to run concurrently on a host computer. • Each VM runs its own guest OS and applications. • Examples of hypervisors: • VMware ESX • VMware ESXi • Microsoft Hyper-V Server • Citrix XenServer • XTMv initially supports one hypervisor — VMware ESXi 4.1 or 5.0 • XTMv does not support vMotion for virtual machine migration between ESXi hosts. WatchGuard Training

  25. VMware Software • vSphere is a VMware suite of software for virtualization. • Some of the main components of vSphere are: • ESXi host — the virtualization platform, or hypervisor that hosts virtual machines • ESXi is installed on bare server hardware • ESXi 4.1 or 5.0 is required for XTMv • vCenter Server — An optional management server that provides centralized administration of multiple ESXi hosts and their virtual machines. • vCenter Server is not required for XTMv • vSphere Client – a Windows client that is the primary management interface used to deploy, manage, and monitor virtual machines on ESXi hosts. • vSphere Client is required for XTMv deployment WatchGuard Training

  26. vSphere Client • The vSphere Client can connect to an ESXi host or to a vCenter Server. • This is similar to the way WSM can connect to an individual XTM device or to a WatchGuard Management Server. • XTMv setup steps assume the vSphere Client connects to an ESXi host. VMware vCenter Server WatchGuard Training

  27. XTMv Deployment WatchGuard Training

  28. vSphere Client Installation • The XTMv customer should already have an ESXi host and the vSphere Client installed. • To install the vSphere client: • In a web browser, connect to the VMware ESXi server. • Download and install the vSphere Client. WatchGuard Training

  29. vSphere Client • To connect to the VMware ESXi host: • Launch the VMware vSphere Client. • Type the IP address, User name, and Password for the ESXi host. WatchGuard Training

  30. XTMv Installation Prerequisites • To prepare for the XTMV installation, make sure you have these things: • VMware ESXi 4.1 or 5.0 host • 3 GB of available disk space — required for each XTMv virtual machine • Two virtual networks — to map to the XTMv external and trusted interfaces • VMware vSphere 4.1 or 5.0 client installed on a Windows computer • XTMv device serial number • WatchGuard XTMv virtual appliance fileFile name: xtmv_<version>.ova, where <version> is the Fireware XTM OS version. (For example, xtmv_11_5_4.ova) WatchGuard Training

  31. Installation Overview • Installation consists of three main procedures: • In the VMware vSphere client, deploy the XTMv virtual appliance to the ESXi host; then power on the XTMv virtual machine. • Connect to the Web UI and use the Fireware XTM Web Setup Wizard to set up a basic configuration. • Allocate additional resources to the XTMv virtual machine. • This training and the XTMv Setup Guide describe how to use the Web Setup Wizard to create the initial configuration. • You can also use the Quick Setup Wizard in WatchGuard System Manager, if you can connect to the trusted network of the XTMv device. WatchGuard Training

  32. Deploy the XTMv Virtual Appliance • Launch the vSphere Client, and log in to the ESXi host with administrator credentials. • Select File > Deploy OVF Template. • Browse to the location of the WatchGuard XTMv OVF template file, xtmv_<version>.ova. WatchGuard Training

  33. Deploy XTMv – OVF Details • Verify the product and version on the OVF Template Details page. The left side of the dialog box shows the deployment steps, and which step you are on. WatchGuard Training

  34. Deploy XTMv – Name the VM • Review and accept the EULA. • Type a name for the virtual machine — the name identifies this virtual machine in the inventory on the ESXi host. It is not the same as the device name in the Fireware XTM configuration. WatchGuard Training

  35. Deploy XTMv – Resource Pool • Select a resource pool (if the ESXi host has multiple resource pools).This determines where the virtual machine appears in the hierarchy of virtual machines on the ESXi host. WatchGuard Training

  36. Deploy XTMv – Disk Format • Select Thick provisioned format. (This is the default.) WatchGuard Training

  37. Deploy XTMv – Network Mapping • Select the destination network for Network 0 (Eth 0: External). • Select the destination network for Network 1 (Eth1: Trusted). Available networks appear in a drop-down list. WatchGuard Training

  38. Deploy XTMv – Verify and Finish • Review the deployment settings, and click Finish.The deployment begins. Deployment can take a few minutes WatchGuard Training

  39. XTMv After Deployment • The XTMv virtual machine appears in the Inventory tree. • The virtual machine is initially powered off. Click Power On to start it. Click to power on XTMv WatchGuard Training

  40. XTMv After Power On • After you power on the device, you can see the IP addresses. • The External IP address is assigned by a DHCP server (if there is one). Click to see all IP addresses. Eth 0: External Eth 1: Trusted WatchGuard Training

  41. XTMv Factory Default Settings • When you power on the XTMv virtual machine for the first time, it starts with factory default settings. • The XTMv device has two active interfaces, external, and trusted. • The external interface is configured to receive an IP address via DHCP. • The trusted interface has the IP address 10.0.1.1. • The account passphrases are admin/readwrite, and status/readonly. • Differences in factory default settings for XTMv: • The trusted interface does not assign IP addresses via DHCP. • Both the trusted and external interfaces accept management connections. • The serial number for an unactivated XTMv device ends with “000000000”. • To reset an XTMv to factory default settings: • Use the CLI command restore factory-default. WatchGuard Training

  42. Run the Web Setup Wizard • Connect to the Web UI: https://<external IP address>:8080 • Log in with the default admin password: readwrite. • The Web Setup Wizardis the same as for any other XTM device. • For XTMv, you can connect to the externalinterface to run the Web Setup Wizard. WatchGuard Training

  43. Web Setup Wizard • Accept the EULA. • Configure the external interface (DHCP, PPPoE, or Static). • Configure DNS and WINS servers. • Configure the trusted interface. • Before you run the wizard, the DHCP server is disabled on the trusted interface. • In the wizard, the DHCP check box is selected by default. You might not want to enable this, if the trusted network already has a DHCP server. WatchGuard Training

  44. Web Setup Wizard • Create passphrases. • Add contact information. • Default device name is “XTMv”. It is a good practice to change this to the name you gave the XTMv virtual machine when you deployed it. • Set the time zone. • There is no step to enable remote management – it is enabled by default. WatchGuard Training

  45. Web Setup Wizard – Activation • For XTMv you must type the Serial Number to use Online Activation. • This is different than for other XTM devices. • Activation options in the Web Setup Wizard are the same as for any XTM device. • Online activation • Paste feature key • Skip activation • If you do not complete online activation or pastea feature key, the XTMv device uses the default serialnumber, that ends with “000000000”. • A serial number that ends in nine zeros indicates thatthe XTMv is not activated. WatchGuard Training

  46. Manage XTMv WSM Web UI CLI To open a CLI console window, click Open Console on the Summary tab for this VM in the vSphere client . WatchGuard Training

  47. Some VMware Terminology • In the VMware world, these terms all have different meanings: • Virtual appliance – the “virtual device image”” you deploy (the .ova file). • Virtual machine – the XTMv machine after you deploy it. • Virtual device – virtual hardware device, such as a network WatchGuard Training
