Modern versions of Cisco IOS has some support for authenticating via
|
|
Kerberos 5. This can be used both by having the router get a ticket when
|
|
you login (boring), and by using Kerberos authenticated telnet to access
|
|
your router (less boring). The following has been tested on IOS
|
|
11.2(12), things might be different with other versions. Old versions
|
|
are known to have bugs.
|
|
|
|
To make this work, you will first have to configure your router to use
|
|
Kerberos (this is explained in the documentation). A sample
|
|
configuration looks like the following:
|
|
|
|
@example
|
|
aaa new-model
|
|
aaa authentication login default krb5-telnet krb5 enable
|
|
aaa authorization exec krb5-instance
|
|
kerberos local-realm FOO.SE
|
|
kerberos srvtab entry host/router.foo.se 0 891725446 4 1 8 012345678901234567
|
|
kerberos server FOO.SE 10.0.0.1
|
|
kerberos instance map admin 15
|
|
@end example
|
|
|
|
This tells you (among other things) that when logging in, the router
|
|
should try to authenticate with kerberised telnet, and if that fails try
|
|
to verify a plain text password via a Kerberos ticket exchange (as
|
|
opposed to a local database, RADIUS or something similar), and if that
|
|
fails try the local enable password. If you're not careful when you
|
|
specify the `login default' authentication mechanism, you might not be
|
|
able to login at all. The `instance map' and `authorization exec' lines
|
|
says that people with `admin' instances should be given `enabled' shells
|
|
when logging in.
|
|
|
|
The numbers after the principal on the `srvtab' line are principal type,
|
|
timestamp (in seconds since 1970), key version number (4), keytype (1 ==
|
|
des), key length (always 8 with des), and then the key.
|
|
|
|
To make the Heimdal KDC produce tickets that the Cisco can decode you
|
|
might have to turn on the @samp{encode_as_rep_as_tgs_rep} flag in the
|
|
KDC. You will also have to specify that the router can't handle anything
|
|
but @samp{des-cbc-crc}. This can be done with the @samp{del_enctype}
|
|
command of @samp{kadmin}.
|
|
|
|
This all fine and so, but unless you have an IOS version with encryption
|
|
(available only in the U.S) it doesn't really solve any problems. Sure
|
|
you don't have to send your password over the wire, but since the telnet
|
|
connection isn't protected it's still possible for someone to steal your
|
|
session. This won't be fixed until someone adds integrity to the telnet
|
|
protocol.
|
|
|
|
A working solution would be to hook up a machine with a real operating
|
|
system to the console of the Cisco and then use it as a backwards
|
|
terminal server.
