Hardening 1941 Configuration

bytewize_ns
Level 1
Level 1

Hi,

Ive finished configuring our new 1941 and its running smoothly so far, this is a production router and i want to ensure the configuration is as complete and secure as possible. 

I am planning to block ICMP on the WAN interface and require a few PAT / port forwards for internal services and wondering if i should use ZBF and any other configuration changes to secure the configuration as much as possible.

Here is my config:

Hello,

Please check the link below for cisco IOS hardening

Simple toturial for ZBF

*********************

Take look at reflexive access-list also. It is much easier than ZBF if you do not have very special need to secure your network.

Hope it helps,

I have a config wizard for a Cisco 897 that does most of what you want.  Take a look and copy the bits of the config that do what you need.

Hey Philip -
Thank you for sharing this tool - IT is more thorough than I anticipated for an “out of the box” config generator.
