MACsec
######
MACsec is an IEEE standard (IEEE 802.1AE) for MAC security, introduced in 2006.
It defines a way to establish a protocol independent connection between two
hosts with data confidentiality, authenticity and/or integrity, using
GCM-AES-128. MACsec operates on the Ethernet layer and as such is a layer 2
protocol, which means it's designed to secure traffic within a layer 2 network,
including DHCP or ARP requests. It does not compete with other security
solutions such as IPsec (layer 3) or TLS (layer 4), as all those solutions are
used for their own specific use cases.
*************
Configuration
*************
Common interface configuration
==============================
.. cmdinclude:: /_include/interface-common-with-dhcp.txt
:var0: macsec
:var1: macsec0
MACsec options
==============
.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces macsec <interface> security cipher <gcm-aes-128|gcm-aes-256>
Select cipher suite used for cryptographic operations. This setting is
mandatory.
.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces macsec <interface> security encrypt
MACsec only provides authentication by default, encryption is optional. This
command will enable encryption for all outgoing packets.
.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces macsec <interface> source-interface <physical-source>
A physical interface is required to connect this MACsec instance to. Traffic
leaving this interface will now be authenticated/encrypted.
Key Management
--------------
:abbr:`MKA (MACsec Key Agreement protocol)` is used to synchronize keys between
individual peers.
.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces macsec <interface> security mka cak <key>
IEEE 802.1X/MACsec pre-shared key mode. This allows configuring MACsec with
a pre-shared key using a :abbr:`CAK (MACsec connectivity association key)` and
:abbr:`CKN (MACsec connectivity association name)` pair.
.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces macsec <interface> security mka ckn <key>
:abbr:`CKN (MACsec connectivity association name)` key
.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces macsec <interface> security mka priority <priority>
The peer with lower priority will become the key server and start
distributing SAKs.
Replay protection
-----------------
.. cfgcmd:: set interfaces macsec <interface> security replay-window <window>
IEEE 802.1X/MACsec replay protection window. This determines a window in which
replay is tolerated, to allow receipt of frames that have been misordered by
the network.
- ``0``: No replay window, strict check
- ``1-4294967295``: Number of packets that could be misordered
*********
Operation
*********
.. opcmd:: run generate macsec mka cak <gcm-aes-128|gcm-aes-256>
Generate :abbr:`MKA (MACsec Key Agreement protocol)` CAK key 128 or 256 bits.
.. code-block:: none

20693b6e08bfa482703a563898c9e3ad
.. opcmd:: run generate macsec mka ckn

88737efef314ee319b2cbf30210a5f164957d884672c143aefdc0f5f6bc49eb2

List all MACsec interfaces.
.. code-block:: none
vyos@vyos:~$ show interfaces macsec

Examples

* Two routers connected both via eth1 through an untrusted switch
* R1 has 192.0.2.1/24 & 2001:db8::1/64

Pinging (IPv6) the other host and intercepting the traffic in ``eth1`` will
show you the content is encrypted.
