The SoH statement is decoded into +radius-style attributes, and you can write a policy in "unlang" to act +on them, and permit, restrict or deny network access. + +== PEAP support == + +SoH support in peap is enabled in eap.conf using config like so: + + eap { + peap { + soh = yes + soh_virtual_server = "soh-server" + } + } + +When SoH is enabled, an EAP-PEAP client will be challenged to provide an +SoH statement after providing it's identity (or resuming a PEAP session via +SSL session resumption). Clients which do not support PEAP will NAK the +request, and clients which do will answer it. + +The client reply will be written into a fake radius request and sent to the +virtual server specified above; it will either look like: + + SoH-Supported = no + +...or (from a Vista machine): + + SoH-Supported = yes + SoH-MS-Machine-OS-vendor = Microsoft + SoH-MS-Machine-OS-version = 6 + SoH-MS-Machine-OS-release = 0 + SoH-MS-Machine-OS-build = 6001 + SoH-MS-Machine-SP-version = 1 + SoH-MS-Machine-SP-release = 0 + SoH-MS-Machine-Processor = x86_64 + SoH-MS-Machine-Name = "netbios.example.com" + SoH-MS-Correlation-Id = 0x54468936cb494374b127a6a3cc3bb11c01ca78d858ee1ef0 + SoH-MS-Machine-Role = client + SoH-MS-Windows-Health-Status = "firewall ok snoozed=0 microsoft=1 up2date=1 enabled=1" + SoH-MS-Windows-Health-Status = "antivirus error not-installed" + SoH-MS-Windows-Health-Status = "antispyware ok snoozed=0 microsoft=1 up2date=1 enabled=1" + SoH-MS-Windows-Health-Status = "auto-updates ok action=install" + SoH-MS-Windows-Health-Status = "security-updates warn some-missing" + +If you have "copy_request_to_tunnel = yes" set on the peap module, the +request variables like NAS-IP-Address and so on will be copied to the fake +request as well. + +Clients without SoH seem to just NAK the SoH request and continue with the inner +EAP auth. This has been tested as working with Windows XP SP2 and lower, Linux +clients using NetworkManager & wpa_supplicant, MacOS 10.5, Nokia/Symbian S60 and +iPhone OS 3.x. It should therefore be safe to deploy. + +== Radius support == + +If you are running a Microsoft VPN or Terminal Services Gateway, these can +be configured to send the SoH data to an upstream radius server, in this +case presumably FreeRadius. To take advantage of this you will need to add +the "soh" module to the "authorize" section of your virtual server, like so: + +server tsgateway { + preprocess + soh + if () { + ... policy goes here + } +} + +The SoH module simply looks for the Microsoft VSA #55 and decodes the SoH +data, adding the SoH attributes to the request - see above for an example +of the available attributes. + +The SoH module also does dynamic expansions - see below for more info. + +== DHCP support == + +If you compile FreeRadius with DHCP support, the "soh" module can challenge +a DHCP client for SoH data in the DHCPOFFER packet. As with normal radius, +the SoH attributes are added to the request. You would use like so: + +server dhcp { + dhcp DHCP-Discover { + soh + # note - no SoH attributes are added here, the client hasn't sent them yet + + # other DHCP config + } + + dhcp DHCP-Request { + soh + if () { + # SoH policy + } + # other DHCP config + } +} + +== soh module == + +The "soh" module decodes the radius & DHCP payloads. It also makes some dynamic +variables available, for example: + +authorize { + soh + update request { + Tmp-String-0 = "%{soh:OS}" + } +} + +...will give you a string like "Windows Vista 6.1.100 sp 1.0" or "Windows XP 5.x.x sp 3.0" + +At the moment, this is the only dynamic expansion; in future, we will make +various bits of info available, for example non-Microsoft SoH records (see below) + +== Non-microsoft SoH data == + +The Windows SoH structure is extensible and, in principle, clients can be +extended with .dll plugins to add vendor-specific info to the SoH, which +can then be checked on the server. + +At the present time, few plugins are known and I have seen none, so can't +add support for them. + +== Client configuration == + +The code works fine with Win XP SP3 & Vista on both wired & wireless. However +contrary to what some sites claim, the NAP service is disabled by default, as +are the many NAP remediation agents. These can be enabled from the command prompt +with (for XP; instructions may differ for other windows versions): + + sc config napagent start= auto + sc start napagent + + # optionally for wired 802.1x; the dot3svc should usually be made dependent + # on the napagent service, else the machine might attempt 802.1x before NAP + # has started... + + sc config dot3svc start= auto depend= napagent + sc start dot3svc + + # enable the EAP agent + netsh nap client show config + + # get the "ID" value for the "EAP Quarantine Enforcement Client" + netsh nap client set enforce id=$ID admin=enable + + # repeat for DHCP, VPN or Terminal Services agents + +This can be automated via Group Policy. + +You then need to enable EAP, PEAP, Quarantine Checks & the relevant auth method +on the relevant adapters. This can be done with "netsh xml profiles" or Group +Policy - google for the relevant terms, or see the MS article: + + http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb726965.aspx + +...and related links. + +== TODO == + +Currently the code does not support sending the final SoH reply. This +is because the SoH reply (see section 2.2.9 of MS-SOH version +v20091104) needs various fields formatted in a manner which is not +obvious to me, and I don't currently have access to a windows NAP +server to look at a working example. The clients I have access don't +seem to mind. + + Phil Mayers <p.mayers@imperial.ac.uk> + December 2009 |
