OcNOS-SP : Key Features : Enhanced Security and Performance : NetConf Port Access Control
NetConf Port Access Control
Overview
NetConf is a software tool that provides a mechanism to configure and manage remote network devices seamlessly. It uses a simple Remote Procedure Call (RPC) mechanism to facilitate communication between a client and a server.
During the OcNOS installation, the NetConf subsystem called “netconf” is installed. It runs on the default access port 830 over SSH and port 6513 over TLS.
Typically, these default access ports are not configurable and controlled. The NetConf port access control feature enhancement ensures that the Netconf-SSH and NetConf-TLS port access can be controlled and configurable through the New CLI Commands introduced in the 6.4.1 release.
Feature Characteristics
This feature allows access control capabilities for the NetConf-SSH and NetConf-TLS ports.
Enabling/disabling the port.
Changing the default port.
Accessing and controlling the NetConf services through Inband and Outband.
Applying ACL rules to the NetConf port to control its access.
Benefits
This feature enables the user to control the NetConf port access and change the default port.
Configuration
To configure either NetConf-SSH port or the NetConf-TLS port, perform the following steps. After completing the steps you will be configured with a port for NetConf.
1. Disable netconf-ssh and netconf-tls feature
2. Configure port for netconf-ssh and netconf-tls
3. Enable netconf-ssh and netconf-tls feature

Implementation Examples
The below examples are based on the topology given in Topology section.
Accessing R1 from R2 with default port

feature netconf-ssh
feature netconf-ssh vrf management
feature netconf-tls

root@OcNOS:~# ip netns exec zebosfib1 yangcli --server=10.10.10.2 --user=ocnos -- password=ocnos ncport=2000
New CLI Commands
feature netconf-ssh
Use this command to enable or disable the netconf-ssh feature specific to the management VRF. When netconf feature-ssh is enabled, it allows the logins through the default netconf-ssh port or through default ssh port if feature SSH is also enabled.
Command Syntax
feature netconf-ssh (vrf management|)
no feature netconf-ssh (vrf management|)
Parameters
vrf management
Specifies the management Virtual Routing and Forwarding
Default
Disabled by default.
Command Mode
Configure mode
Applicability
This command was introduced in OcNOS version 6.4.1.
Examples
The following example shows you how to enable NetConf SSH on either the VRF management port or the default port. The no parameter disables the same.
 
(config)#feature netconf-ssh vrf management
(config)#feature netconf-ssh
(config)#no feature netconf-ssh vrf management
(config)#no feature netconf-ssh
#
 
feature netconf-tls
Use this command to enable or disable the NetConf TLS feature specific to a VRF. When netconf feature-ssh is enabled, it allows the logins through the default netconf-tls port and allows login through a default TLS port when the TLS feature is also enabled.
Command Syntax
feature netconf-tls (vrf management|)
no feature netconf-tls (vrf management|)
Parameters
vrf management
Specifies management Virtual Routing and Forwarding.
Default
Disabled by default.
Command Mode
Configure mode
Applicability
This command was introduced in OcNOS version 6.4.1.
Examples
The following example shows how to execute the CLI:
(config)#feature netconf-tls vrf management
(config)#feature netconf-tls
(config)#no feature netconf-tls vrf management
(config)#no feature netconf-tls
 
If either NetConf SSH or NetConf TLS are disabled one after the other, the following error message will be displayed, % Disabling this will stop the netconf service that is running in management vrf” as shown below.

Revised CLI Commands
The existing ip access-list tcp|udp CLI is updated with the following two options to support the Access List (ACL) rules on the NetConf port. The ACL defines a set of rules to control network traffic and reduce network attacks.
netconf-ssh
Secure Shell Network Configuration
netconf-tls
Transport Layer Security Network Configuration
ip access-list tcp|udp
Use this command to define a named access control list (ACL) that determines whether to accept or drop an incoming TCP or UDP IP packet based on the specified match criteria. This command filters packets based on source and destination IP address along with the TCP or UDP protocol and port.
Use the no form of this command to remove an ACL specification.
Note: Configuring same filter again with change of sequence number or change of action will result in update of sequence number or filter action.
Note: TCP flags options and range options like neq, gt, lt and range are not supported by hardware in egress direction.
Note: Both Ack and established flag in tcp have same functionality in hardware.
