Cloud Lab

This repo contains Terraform and Ansible for building a CloudSecure demo or a cloud-hosted lab.

Terraform

The first step is building the infrastructure via Terraform. This lab has been tested on Terraform v1.8.5.

Each lab should use its own Terraform workspace. See below for useful commands:

  • See all Terraform workspaces: terraform workspace list
  • Create a new Terraform workspace: terraform workspace new se32
  • Switch Terraform workspaces: terraform workspace select se32

The lab is designed to be governed by two configuration files: 1 for AWS and 1 for Azure. The config files should reside in the terraform/config-files directory. The format should be {terraform-workspace}-{csp}.yaml. For example, if my Terraform workspace is se32, the lab config files should terraform/config-files/se32-aws.yaml amd terraform/config-files/se32-azure.yaml

The two example config files in this repo have annotated the parameters that need to be configured. The se32 example has networks and workloads for building a demo for CloudSecure. This Terraform targets AWS and Azure. The lab example is simpler with AWS only workloads for a PCE and example workloads. (Note - you still need the Azure config file, but it's mainly empty)

Terraform will require credentials in ~/.aws/credentials to connect to your account. See below for example format of this file:

» more ~/.aws/credentials  
[se32]  
aws_access_key_id = XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX  
aws_secret_access_key = YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY  
[personal]  
aws_access_key_id = XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX  
aws_secret_access_key = YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Route53

Terraform creates DNS entries via Route53. The route53AWSProfile parameter in the AWS config file specifies the AWS profile to use for DNS. It's recommend to use a personal AWS account with registered DNS ($14/yr). If you use poc.segmentationpov.com DNS, you might need to change all VM hostnames to not conflict with other DNS entries.

Example commands to get started

cd terraform  
terraform init  
terraform workspace new se32
terraform workspace list (verify your in the correct workspace)  
terraform plan (will give a list of all the assets that will be created)  
terrafrom apply (will create everything)

The above can take a while, and may fail the first couple times when creating the aws <-> azure vpn. Run it again if it fails and it should eventually work.

Ansible

This lab was tested on ansible [core 2.16.3]. Once the infrastructure is built, use Ansible to configure it. There are some simple bash scripts to run the configuration.

  1. Update your ansible/vars.yaml file.
  2. Generate your hosts file by running ansible/01-setup-hosts.sh
  3. Depending on your lab either run ansible/02-setup-cs-demo.sh or ansible/04-setup-pce.sh.
