Configuring anti-virus

About anti-virus

Anti-virus identifies viruses in the application layer of packets based on an up-to-date virus signature library and takes actions to prevent a network from being infected. This feature is typically deployed on a gateway to insulate the internal network from viruses and protect the internal data.

Anti-virus supports inspecting packets transported through FTP, HTTP, IMAP, NFS, POP3, SMB, and SMTP.

Application scenario

As shown in Figure 1, the device is the gateway of an internal network. Internal users access the external network and download data from the external network. The internal server accepts data uploaded by external users.

In this scenario, you can configure anti-virus on the gateway to protect the internal network. Anti-virus inspects incoming packets, permits legitimate packets to pass, and takes actions, such as alert, block, or redirect, on packets containing viruses.

Figure 1 Anti-virus application scenario

 

Terminology

Virus signature

A virus signature is a character string that uniquely identifies a specific virus. The virus signature library contains the predefined virus signatures.

MD5 rules

An MD5 rule is generated by the system based on the virus signatures in the virus signature library to identify virus-infected files.

Signature exception

Typically, anti-virus takes anti-virus actions on packets matching virus signatures. If a virus proves to be a false alarm, you can set the virus signature as a signature exception. Packets matching the signature exception are permitted to pass.

Application exception

Typically, anti-virus action is protocol specific and applies to all applications carried by the protocol. To take a different action on an application, you can set the application as an exception and specify a different anti-virus action for the application. Application exceptions use application-specific actions and the other applications use protocol-specific actions. For example, the anti-virus action for HTTP is alert. To block the games carried by HTTP, you can set the games as application exceptions and specify the block action for them.

MD5 exception

If false positives occur for a virus, you can set the MD5 value of the virus as an MD5 exception. The device will permit subsequent packets matching the MD5 exception to pass.

You can get the MD5 value of the virus through the threat log.

Anti-virus action

Anti-virus actions apply to the packets that match virus signatures. The actions include the following types:

·     alertPermits matching packets and generates logs.

·     blockBlocks matching packets and generates logs.

·     redirectRedirects matching HTTP connections to a URL and generates logs. The redirection is applicable to only uploading connections.

The generated anti-virus logs can be sent to the device information center or to designated recipients by email.

Virus detection methods

The device supports the following virus detection methods:

·     Virus signature-based detection—The device matches packets against virus signatures in the virus signature library, and determines that a packet contains viruses if a match is found.

·     MD5 rule-based detection—The device generates an MD5 hash value for a file to be inspected and compares the value with the system-defined MD5 rules. If a match is found, the file is identified to be virus-infected.

Anti-virus mechanism

Anti-virus takes effect after you apply an anti-virus policy to a DPI application profile and use the DPI application profile in a security policy rule or object policy rule.

As shown in Figure 2, upon receiving a packet, the anti-virus device performs the following operations:

1.     The device identifies whether the anti-virus supports the application layer protocol of the packet.

¡     If not, the device permits the packet to pass without anti-virus inspection.

¡     If yes, the device compares the packet with the virus signatures and MD5 rules.

2.     If a matching signature or MD5 rule is found, the device performs following operations:

a.     Determines if the matching signature is an exception. If yes, the device permits the packet to pass. If not, the device examines whether the application is an exception.

b.     If the application is an exception, the device takes the application-specific action (alert, block, or permit). If the application is not an exception, the device takes the protocol-specific action (alert, block, or redirect).

3.     If no matching signature or MD5 rule is found, the device performs the following operations:

a.     Determines if the MD5 value of the file in the packet is an MD5 value exception.

-     If yes, the device permits the packet to pass.

-     If not, the device sends the MD5 value of the file in the packet to the cloud server.

b.     If cloud query is disabled in the anti-virus policy, the device permits the packet to pass.

c.     If cloud query is enabled in the anti-virus policy but the cloud server does not detect any virus, the device permits the packet to pass.

d.     If cloud query is enabled in the anti-virus policy and the cloud server detects the virus, the device determines if the application is an exception.

-     If yes, the device takes the application-specific action (alert, block, or permit).

-     If not, the device takes the protocol-specific action (alert, block, or redirect).

Figure 2 Anti-virus mechanism

 

Virus signature library management

The device inspects packets for viruses based on the virus signature library. You can update the virus signature library to the latest version or roll it back to the previous version or the factory default version.

Updating the virus signature library

The following methods are available for updating the virus signature library:

·     Automatic update.

The device automatically and periodically downloads the most up-to-date virus signature file to update the signature library.

·     Triggered update.

The device downloads the most up-to-date virus signature file to update the signature library immediately after you trigger the operation.

·     Manual update.

Use this method when the device cannot obtain the virus signature file automatically.

You must manually download the most up-to-date virus signature file and then use the downloaded file to update the signature library.

Rolling back the virus signature library

If the false alarm rate is high or abnormal situations frequently occur, you can roll back the virus signature library to the previous version or to the factory default version.

Licensing requirements

The anti-virus feature requires a license to run on the device. If the license expires, the anti-virus feature is still available but you can no longer update the virus signature library on the device. For more information about licenses, see Fundamentals Configuration Guide.

Configuring an anti-virus policy

About this task

An anti-virus policy defines the virus detection criteria, anti-virus actions, virus signature exceptions, and application exceptions.

The virus signatures in the virus signature library are available to all anti-virus policies on the device.

Restrictions and guidelines

Anti-virus supports only NFSv3 of the NFS protocol, and SMBv1 and SMBv2 of the SMB protocol.

The logging keyword enables the anti-virus module to log the packet matching events and send log messages to the information center.

With the information center, you can set log message filtering and output rules, including output destinations.

The information center can output anti-virus logs to any destinations except the console and the monitor terminal. If you configure the console or monitor terminal as an output destination, the output destination setting will not take effect.

To view anti-virus logs stored on the device, use the display logbuffer command. Make sure you do not disable log output to the log buffer, which is enabled by default.

For more information about configuring the information center, see Network Management and Monitoring Configuration Guide.

Procedure

Configuring MD5 value-based anti-virus cloud query

About this task

You can enable MD5 value-based anti-virus cloud query in an anti-virus policy. If the file in a packet does not match any rule in the local virus signature library, the device will send the MD5 value of the file to the cloud server for cloud query. The cloud server determines whether the MD5 value is a virus and returns the result to the device so appropriate action can be taken.

For more information about the cloud query server, see "Configuring the DPI engine."

Restrictions and guidelines

MD5 value-based anti-virus cloud query is available only for the following protocols:

·     HTTP.

·     IMAP.

·     NFS. Only the NFS read operation is supported.

·     POP3.

By default, no object policy is applied to a zone pair.

Managing the virus signature library

As viruses constantly increase and change, you must update the virus signature library in time. You can also roll back the virus signature library.

Restrictions and guidelines

·     Do not delete the /dpi/ folder in the root directory of the storage medium.

·     Do not perform virus signature update and rollback when the device's free memory is below the normal state threshold. For more information about device memory thresholds, see device management in Fundamentals Configuration Guide.

·     For successful automatic and immediate signature update, make sure the device can resolve the domain name of the H3C website into an IP address through DNS. For more information about DNS, see DNS configuration in Layer 3—IP Services Configuration Guide.

·     Update only one signature library at a time. Do not perform signature library update until the existing signature library update is completed.

Scheduling automatic virus signature library update

About this task

You can schedule automatic virus signature library update if the device can access the signature database services on the H3C website. The device periodically obtains the latest signature file from the H3C website to update its local signature library according to the update schedule.

Procedure

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Enable automatic virus signature library update and enter automatic virus signature library update configuration view.

Manually updating the virus signature library

About this task

If the device cannot access the signature database services on the H3C website, use one of the following methods to manually update the virus signature library:

·     Local update—Updates the virus signature library by using the locally stored virus signature file.

Store the update file on the master device for successful signature library update.

·     FTP/TFTP update—Updates the virus signature library by using the virus signature file stored on an FTP or TFTP server.

Procedure

1.     Enter system view.

system-view

2.     Manually update the virus signature library.

anti-virus signature update file-path

Rolling back the virus signature library

About this task

If a virus signature library update causes abnormal situations or a high false alarm rate, you can roll back the virus signature library.

Before rolling back the virus signature library, the device backs up the current signature library as the previous version. For example, the previous version is V1 and the current version is V2. If you perform a rollback to the previous version, version V1 becomes the current version and version V2 becomes the previous version. If you perform a rollback to the previous version again, version V2 becomes the current version and version V1 becomes the previous version.

Procedure

1.     Enter system view.
