Locking access to SSH on Cisco SDWAN

Tim_J_RC

Is there a way to lockdown management access to a Cisco SDWAN device similiar to using Access lists on VTY ports on IOS routers?   We are trying to harden our vEdges 1000's.    

 

Thanks,

Like in IOS routers ACLs can also be configured and applied to vEdges WAN interfaces for Access Control.

 

Could be something like this.

policy 

access-list AllowManagement
sequence 10
match
source-ip  (Source IP for SSH Management)
!
action accept
count ManagementPackets
!
!
sequence 20
match
destination-port 22
!
action drop
count ssh_drop
!
!
default-action accept

------------------------

 

vpn 0
interface ge0/0

description "Wan Interface"
access-list AllowManagement in

 

-------------------------------------

Please check the following URL for more detail.

By default, TLS and IPSec are the only ones allowed on the Transport side, for example, apart from protocols vEdge needs for ZTP/PnP Connect. Given this, the device is in "lockdown" even after deployment unless a policy on vManage has SSH services permitted.

Check "Serviceability for Next Generation SD-WAN - BRKCRS-2112" at 1:12:44 in Cisco Live as well.

Hope this helps, Tim. :)
