- 33. Robust Industrial Data Communications – Made EasyRobust Industrial Data Communications – Made Easy The What and How!
- 34. 34 Start: A plant network in need of organizing ▪ Mix of units with different purposes and criticality ▪ Single, flat network (switched) ▪ Or multiple networks, each with mix of units ▪ Little or no control of traffic patterns within the Intranet FW/ RouterIntranet Internet (WAN) Office PCs Management Clients PLCs & Process Equipment Servers Switched Network
- 35. 35 Goal: A network with proper segmentation ▪ Group units based their purpose ▪ Segment network accordingly (zones) ▪ Connect via router/firewall capable of segregating traffic flows ▪ May use multiple firewalls ▪ Possibly from different vendors ▪ Can have external FW managed by IT department (IT FW) ▪ The internal FW can be dedicated to operations (OT FW) FW/ RouterIntranet Internet (WAN) Office Net Supervisory Net Control Net A Control Net B FW/ Router
- 36. 36 Goal: A network with proper segmentation ▪ Group units based their purpose ▪ Segment network accordingly (zones) ▪ Connect via router/firewall capable of segregating traffic flows ▪ May use multiple firewalls ▪ Possibly from different vendors ▪ Can have external FW managed by IT department (IT FW) ▪ The internal FW can be dedicated to operations (OT FW) FW/ RouterIntranet Internet (WAN) Office Net Supervisory Net Control Net A Control Net B FW/ Router
- 37. 37 Segmentation: Local Area Networks ▪ What is a LAN? ▪ LAN – Local Area Network ▪ Sometimes it means ”your local network”, i.e., your whole Intranet ▪ Here we use LAN when referring to a broadcast network, typically using IEEE 802.3/Ethernet technology. ▪ Form star topology by using a switch/hub/bridge to connect Ethernet equipment. ▪ Switches can be connected together to extend the LAN (tree topology). ▪ Connecting switches in a ring improves robustness (requires RSTP, FRNT, ...) Connecting units to LAN via a switch (Star Topology) Using multiple switches to extend the LAN (Tree Topology)
- 38. 38 Segmentation: Virtual Local Area Networks ▪ What is a VLAN? ▪ VLAN - Virtual LAN ▪ Your LAN equipment is split into logical, isolated LANs (isolated broadcast domains) ▪ Sharing a single switch ▪ Port based VLAN ▪ Split a single switch ▪ Extend VLAN over multiple switches ▪ VLAN trunk cables ▪ ”VLAN tag” added ▪ Holds multiplex info (VLAN ID) VLAN 10 VLAN 20 VLAN 10 VLAN 20 VLAN 10 VLAN 20 VLAN trunk: VLAN 10 & 20 VLANs to share switch (Port based VLAN) VLANs spanning multiple switches (Port based VLAN and VLAN tagging)
- 39. 39 Using VLANs to segment our network ▪ Configure VLANs on the (OT) Firewall/Router ▪ Creates one zone for each network ▪ Within each zone there are additional switches (not shown) FW/Router VLAN 50Intranet Internet (WAN) VLAN 10 Office Net VLAN 20 Supervisory Net VLAN 30 Control Net A VLAN 40: Control Net B FW/Router 1 2 3 4 5
- 40. 40 Assigning IP addresses/subnets ▪ IP addresses: Identifies a unit and its location ▪ Logically assigned ▪ Network part and Host part ▪ Assign one subnet per VLAN, e.g., ▪ 10.0.10.0/24: Office Net ▪ 10.0.20.0/24: Supervisory Net ▪ 10.0.30.0/24: Control Net A ▪ 10.0.40.0/24: Control Net B ▪ 10.0.50.0/24: Upstream Net FW/Router VLAN 50 10.0.50.0/24Intranet Internet (WAN) VLAN 10 Office Net 10.0.10.0/24 VLAN 20 Supervisory Net 10.0.20.0/24 VLAN 30 Control Net A 10.0.30.0/24 FW/Router .2 VLAN 40 Control Net B 10.0.40.0/24 .1 .1 .1.1 .1 Example IP address with ”prefix length” 24 (netmask 255.255.255.0): 10.0.40.1 Network ID Host ID
- 41. 41 Configuring IP address ▪ Example, configuring IP address for interface ”vlan40” on (OT) Firewall ▪ Address: 10.0.40.1/24 FW/Router VLAN 50 10.0.50.0/24Intranet Internet (WAN) VLAN 10 Office Net 10.0.10.0/24 VLAN 20 Supervisory Net 10.0.20.0/24 VLAN 30 Control Net A 10.0.30.0/24 FW/Router .2 VLAN 40 Control Net B 10.0.40.0/24 .1 .1 .1.1 .1
- 42. 42 Segmentation Done ▪ Segmentation using (V)LANs ▪ Units devided into groups based on role ▪ Each group in separate segment (zone) ▪ Within segment, communication typically switched ▪ Across segments, routed via Firewall/Router ▪ ”Default gateway” setting adds route towards Internet ▪ Firewall not enabled ▪ All units can still communicate ▪ Security not (yet) enhanced ▪ Next step: Traffic segregation! FW/Router VLAN 50 10.0.50.0/24Intranet Internet (WAN) VLAN 10 Office Net 10.0.10.0/24 VLAN 20 Supervisory Net 10.0.20.0/24 VLAN 30 Control Net A 10.0.30.0/24 FW/Router .2 VLAN 40 Control Net B 10.0.40.0/24 .1 .1 .1.1 .1
- 43. 43 Traffic Segregation using Firewall ▪ Block all traffic by default ▪ ”Default forward policy”: Deny ▪ No traffic will be routed between LANs! ▪ Add ”packet filter allow” rules for legal traffic flows ▪ Whitelisting ▪ Need to learn your traffic patterns ▪ Example: ▪ Office network gets access towards Internet (perhaps only HTTPS and DNS) ▪ No communication between Control Networks ▪ Supervisory Network can access Control Networks ▪ Limit to specific sources/destinations and protocols ▪ Complements to Firewall packet filters ▪ Stateful Inspection ▪ Deep inspection firewall FW/Router VLAN 50 10.0.50.0/24Intranet Internet (WAN) VLAN 10 Office Net 10.0.10.0/24 VLAN 20 Supervisory Net 10.0.20.0/24 VLAN 30 Control Net A 10.0.30.0/24 FW/Router .2 VLAN 40 Control Net B 10.0.40.0/24 .1 .1 .1.1 .1
- 44. 44 Firewall filter rules in WeOS ▪ Default ”Forward Policy”: Drop ▪ Add ”Filter allow” rules for whitelisting allowed traffic patterns ▪ Match traffic based on ▪ Network Interface (in/out) ▪ IP address (src/dst) ▪ IP payload protocol (TCP, UDP, ICMP, ...) ▪ TCP or UDP Port number ▪ Stop at first match (action: allow or deny/drop) ▪ Input or Forward chain? ▪ Input chain: Rules without ”Out Interface” and ”Destination address” ▪ Forward chain: Rules with ”Out Interface” and/or ”Destination address” ▪ Stateful firewall ▪ Logging possible ▪ Note: Does not apply to switched traffic
- 45. 45 Firewall filter configuration example ▪ Add ability for management station in supervision network to control a unit in control network A via SNMP. ▪ Here we limit to specific IP addresses of management station (10.0.20.5) and the controlled unit (10.0.30.33). FW/Router VLAN 50 10.0.50.0/24Intranet Internet (WAN) VLAN 10 Office Net 10.0.10.0/24 VLAN 20 Supervisory Net 10.0.20.0/24 VLAN 30 Control Net A 10.0.30.0/24 FW/Router .2 VLAN 40 Control Net B 10.0.40.0/24 .1 .1 .1.1 .1
- 46. 46 Segmentation and Segregation Recap ▪ Segmentation using (V)LANs ▪ IP address and subnet assignment and routing for connectivity ▪ Traffic segregation using firewall rules Done! FW/Router VLAN 50 10.0.50.0/24Intranet Internet (WAN) VLAN 10 Office Net 10.0.10.0/24 VLAN 20 Supervisory Net 10.0.20.0/24 VLAN 30 Control Net A 10.0.30.0/24 FW/Router .2 VLAN 40 Control Net B 10.0.40.0/24 .1 .1 .1.1 .1
