Ruckus / Brocade Switches

ICX Switch Consolidation

In an effort to Consolidate Products Rucks is focusing on the ICX 7150, 7550 and 7850 series of switches. The 7250, 7450, 7650 and 7750 are being discontinued.

End of Sale:

7250 - Feb 2022 (end of support Dec 2027)
7450 - Nov 2024 (end of support Nov 2029)
7650 - Dec 2023 (end of support Dec 2028)
7750 - Dec 2023 (end of support Dec 2028)

Note, the ICX uses really old key exchange method 'diffie-hellman-group1-sha1'

debug1: kex: algorithm: diffie-hellman-group1-sha1
debug1: kex: host key algorithm: ssh-rsa
# or

debug1: kex: server->client cipher: aes128-ctr MAC: hmac-sha1 compression: none
debug1: kex: client->server cipher: aes128-ctr MAC: hmac-sha1 compression: none

To allow diffie-hellman-group1-sha1, edit either .ssh/config(to host) or /etc/ssh/ssh_config and add the following:

# ICX SSH
KexAlgorithms +diffie-hellman-group1-sha1
HostKeyAlgorithms +ssh-dss,ssh-rsa
# for ssh key to icx
PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes +ssh-dss,ssh-rsa

---

NOTE: If you want to have the switch connect in reverse to do firmware updates, make sure to add the same to /etc/ssh/sshd_config

# Allow system to connect to Legacy ICX switches
KexAlgorithms +diffie-hellman-group1-sha1
HostKeyAlgorithms +ssh-dss,ssh-rsa
## PubkeyAcceptedKeyTypes +ssh-dss,ssh-rsa # icx doesn't have a private key option - sadness

Public Keys

Note: The public key file may contain up to 16 DSA or RSA key pairs.
Note: Each key in the public key must be in exactly this format (remove the ssh-rsa prefix, the 'Comment' line is optional): ^[7]
Note: Use a 2048 bit key (ssh-keygen -b 2048). The larger key will generate connect issues for 6450s (probably 7150s too). (no key from blob. pkalg ssh-rsa: invalid format) ^[8]

Privilege Levels

3 privileged levels:

enable super-user-password [PASSWORD] - Super-user level password
enable port-config-password [PASSWORD] - Port level configuration password
enable read-only-password [PASSWORD] - Read-only level password

Super User level - Allows complete read-and-write access to the system. This is generally for system administrators and is the only management privilege level that allows you to configure passwords.
Port Configuration level - Allows read-and-write access for specific ports but not for global (system-wide) parameters.
Read-only level - Allows access to the Privileged EXEC mode and User EXEC mode of the CLI but only with read access.

Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting

Authentication, Authorization, and Accounting (AAA) is a security framework that controls access to computer resources, enforces policies, and audits usage.

Authentication - confirm users are who they claim they are (username/password)
Authorization - granted privileges to authorized user
Accounting - tracking user activity

Sample config:

 aaa authentication web-server default local
 aaa authentication login default tacacs+ local
 aaa authentication login privilege-mode

 aaa authorization exec default tacacs+

 aaa accounting exec default start-stop tacacs+

AAA Protocols:

Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) is a networking protocol that authorizes and authenticates users who access a remote network
Terminal Access Controller Access Control System Plus (TACACS+) - a remote authentication AAA protocol that lets a remote access server communicate with an authentication server for user validation
Diameter - evolved from the RADIUS protocol
