MACsec commands

confidentiality-offset

Use confidentiality-offset to set the MACsec confidentiality offset in an MKA policy.

Use undo confidentiality-offset to restore the default.

Syntax

confidentiality-offset offset-value

undo confidentiality-offset

Default

The MACsec confidentiality offset is 0. The entire frame is encrypted.

mdc-admin

Parameters

offset-value: Specifies the confidentiality offset in bytes. The value can be 0, 30 or 50.

Usage guidelines

The MACsec confidentiality offset specifies the number of bytes starting from the frame header. MACsec encrypts only the bytes after the offset in a frame.

When an MKA policy is applied to a port, the MACsec confidentiality offset in the policy overwrites the confidentiality offset previously configured on the port. However, MACsec uses the confidentiality offset propagated by the key server.

Examples

# Set the MACsec confidentiality offset to 30 bytes in MKA policy abcd.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] mka policy abcd

[Sysname-mka-policy-abcd] confidentiality-offset 30

Predefined user roles

network-admin

mdc-admin

Parameters

offset-value: Specifies the confidentiality offset in bytes. The value can be 0, 30 or 50.

Usage guidelines

The MACsec confidentiality offset specifies the number of bytes starting from the frame header. MACsec encrypts only the bytes after the offset in a frame.

If you execute this command on a port to which an MKA policy has been applied, the configuration overwrites the confidentiality offset in the MKA policy. The MKA policy application is removed from the port. However, other settings (settings for parameters except the confidentiality offset) of the MKA policy are effective on the port.

MACsec uses the MACsec confidentiality offset propagated by the key server.

Examples

# Set the MACsec confidentiality offset to 30 bytes on Ten-GigabitEthernet 4/1/1.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] interface ten-gigabitethernet 4/1/1

Usage guidelines

This command allows a MACsec port to expect MACsec protection for outbound frames. The key server determines whether MACsec protects the outbound frames.

MACsec protects the outbound frames of the port when the following requirements are met:

·     The key server is MACsec capable.

·     Both the local participant and its peer are MACsec capable.

·     A minimum of one participant is enabled with the MACsec desire feature.

Examples

# Enable MACsec desire on Ten-GigabitEthernet 4/1/1.

Usage guidelines

This feature allows a MACsec port to accept a number of out-of-order or repeated inbound frames.

If you execute this command on a port to which an MKA policy has been applied, the configuration overwrites the MACsec replay protection configuration in the MKA policy. The MKA policy application is removed from the port. However, other settings (settings for parameters except MACsec replay protection) of the MKA policy are effective on the port.

Examples

# Enable MACsec replay protection on Ten-GigabitEthernet 4/1/1.

Syntax

macsec replay-protection window-size size-value

Default

The MACsec replay protection window size is 0 on a port. The device accepts only frames that arrive in the correct order. Out-of-order or duplicated frames will be dropped.

Views

Ethernet interface view

Predefined user roles

mdc-admin

Parameters

size-value: Specifies the replay protection window size, in the range of 0 to 4294967295 frames.

Usage guidelines

To allow a MACsec port to accept a number of out-of-order frames, enable replay protection and specify a replay protection window size on the port.

Suppose the replay protection window size is a on a port. After the port receives a packet with packet number (PN) x, it can accept only packets whose PN is greater than or equal to x-a.

The replay protection window size takes effect only when the replay protection feature is enabled on the port.

Set a replay protection window size based on the forwarding path of frames. If the frames might be forwarded multiple times, set a large replay protection window size.

If you execute this command on a port to which an MKA policy has been applied, the configuration overwrites the replay protection window size in the MKA policy. The MKA policy application is removed from the port. However, other settings (settings for parameters except the replay protection window size) of the MKA policy are effective on the port.

Examples

# Set the MACsec replay protection window size to 100 on Ten-GigabitEthernet 4/1/1.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] interface ten-gigabitethernet 4/1/1

macsec validation mode

Use macsec validation mode to set a MACsec validation mode on a port.

Use undo macsec validation mode to restore the default.

Syntax

mdc-admin

Parameters

check: Performs validation only and does not drop illegal frames.

strict: Performs validation and drops illegal frames.

Usage guidelines

To avoid data loss, use the default validation mode check on the MACsec devices in case of MKA negotiation failure. After you use the display macsec command to verify that MKA negotiation has succeeded, change the validation mode to strict.

If you execute this command on a port to which an MKA policy has been applied, the configuration overwrites the validation mode in the MKA policy. The MKA policy application is removed from the port. However, other settings (settings for parameters except the validation mode) of the MKA policy are effective on the port.

Examples

# Set the MACsec validation mode to strict on Ten-GigabitEthernet 4/1/1.

Parameters

policy-name: Specifies the name of an MKA policy, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 16 characters.

Usage guidelines

An MKA policy defines MACsec parameters, including confidentiality offset, validation mode, replay protection, and replay protection window size.

When you apply an MKA policy to a port, the MACsec parameter settings in the policy overwrite the MACsec parameters previously configured on the port. Any modifications to the MKA policy take effect immediately.

When you remove the MKA policy from a port, the MACsec parameter settings on the port restore to the default.

When you delete an MKA policy, ports that use the policy automatically use the system-defined MKA policy default-policy.

When you apply a nonexistent MKA policy to a port, the port automatically uses the system-defined MKA policy default-policy. After you create the specified policy, the policy will be automatically applied to the port.

Examples

# Apply MKA policy abcd to Ten-GigabitEthernet 4/1/1.

Parameters

policy-name: Specifies the name of an MKA policy, a case-sensitive string of 1 to 16 characters.

Usage guidelines

MKA policy provides a centralized method for configuring MACsec confidentiality offset, validation mode, replay protection, and replay protection window size.

The system supports multiple MKA policies.

You cannot delete or modify the system-defined MKA policy default-policy.

Examples

# Create an MKA policy named abcd and enter its view.

mdc-admin

Parameters

priority-value: Specifies the priority value, in the range of 0 to 255. The priority is inversely related to its value.

Usage guidelines

The port that has higher priority (lower priority value) becomes the key server. If the port and its peers have the same priority, MACsec compares the SCI values on the ports. The port with the lowest SCI value becomes the key server.

A port with priority 255 cannot become the key server. For a successful key server selection, make sure a minimum of one participant's key server priority is not 255.

Examples

# Set the MKA key server priority to 2 on Ten-GigabitEthernet 4/1/1.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] interface ten-gigabitethernet 4/1/1

[Sysname-Ten-GigabitEthernet4/1/1] mka priority 2

mka psk

Use mka psk to set a preshared key as the CAK.

Use undo mka psk to restore the default.

Syntax

mka psk ckn name cak { cipher | simple } string

undo mka psk

Default

No preshared key exists.

Views

mdc-admin

Parameters

ckn name: Specifies the preshared key name, a hexadecimal string with an even number of case-insensitive characters. The name length is in the range of 2 to 64 characters.

cak: Specifies the preshared key.

cipher: Specifies the preshared key in encrypted form.

simple: Specifies the preshared key in plaintext form. For security purposes, the preshared key specified in plaintext form will be stored in encrypted form.

string: Specifies the preshared key. The plaintext form of the key is a hexadecimal string with an even number of case-insensitive characters, and the key length is in the range of 2 to 64 characters. The encrypted form of the key is a case-sensitive string of 2 to 117 characters.

Usage guidelines

Make sure the connected MACsec ports are configured with the same key. If the connected ports are configured with different keys, they cannot successfully establish MKA sessions.

To delete the configured keys for MKA sessions that have been established, perform the following tasks:

1.     Execute the undo mka psk command on the key server.

2.     Execute the undo mka psk command on the non-key server.

The deletion operation deletes the established MKA sessions at the same time.

Different cipher suites for MACsec encryption have different requirements for the CKN and CAK.

·     The GCM-AES-128 cipher suite requires that the CKN and CAK each be 32 characters long. If the configured CKN or CAK is not 32 characters long, the system performs the following operations when it runs the cipher suite:

¡     Pads the CKN or CAK with zeros to the full length if the CKN or CAK is shorter than 32 characters.

¡     Uses only the first 32 characters if the CKN or CAK is longer than 32 characters.

·     The GCM-AES-256 cipher suite requires that the CKN and CAK each be 64 characters long. If the configured CKN or CAK is shorter than 64 characters, the system pads the CKN or CAK with zeros to the full length when it runs the cipher suite.

To successfully establish an MKA session between two connected ports, make sure only the ports are configured with the same CKN in the network.

Examples

# Configure the CAK name as AB, and set the CAK to 1234 in plain text on Ten-GigabitEthernet 4/1/1.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] interface ten-gigabitethernet 4/1/1

[Sysname-Ten-GigabitEthernet4/1/1] mka psk ckn AB cak simple 1234

replay-protection enable

Use replay-protection enable to enable MACsec replay protection in an MKA policy.

Use undo replay-protection enable to disable MACsec replay protection in an MKA policy.

Syntax

replay-protection enable

undo replay-protection enable

Default

MACsec replay protection is enabled in an MKA policy.

Views

MKA policy view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

mdc-admin

Usage guidelines

This feature allows a MACsec port to accept a number of out-of-order or repeated inbound frames.

When an MKA policy is applied to a port, the replay protection configuration in the policy overwrites the replay protection feature already used by the port.

Examples

# Enable MACsec replay protection in MKA policy abcd.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] mka policy abcd

[Sysname-mka-policy-abcd] replay-protection enable

Related commands

macsec replay-protection enable

replay-protection window-size

replay-protection window-size

Use replay-protection window-size to set the MACsec replay protection window size in an MKA policy.

Use undo replay-protection window-size to restore the default.

Syntax

replay-protection window-size size-value

undo replay-protection window-size

Default

The MACsec replay protection window size in an MKA policy is 0. The device accepts only frames that arrive in the correct order. Out-of-order or duplicated frames will be dropped.

Views

MKA policy view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

mdc-admin

Parameters

size-value: Specifies the replay protection window size, in the range of 0 to 4294967295 frames.

Usage guidelines

The MACsec replay protection window size allows a MACsec port to accept a number of out-of-order inbound frames.

Suppose the replay protection window size is a on a port. After the port receives a packet with PN x, it can accept only packets whose PN is greater than or equal to x-a.

The replay protection window size takes effect only when the replay protection feature is enabled on the port.

Set a replay protection window size based on the forwarding path of frames. If the frames might be forwarded multiple times, set a large replay protection window size.

When an MKA policy is applied to a port, the replay protection window size in the policy overwrites the window size already configured on the port.

Examples

# Set the MACsec replay protection window size to 100 in MKA policy abcd.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] mka policy abcd

[Sysname-mka-policy-abcd] replay-protection window-size 100

reset mka session

Use reset mka session to reset MKA sessions on ports.

Syntax

reset mka session [ interface interface-type interface-number ]

Views

User view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

mdc-admin

Parameters

interface interface-type interface-number: Specifies a port by its type and number. If you do not specify a port, this command resets MKA sessions on all ports.

Usage guidelines

This command first clears MKA sessions, and then immediately triggers a new session establishment negotiation.

Examples

# Reset MKA sessions on Ten-GigabitEthernet 4/1/1.

<Sysname> reset mka session interface ten-gigabitethernet 4/1/1

Related commands

display mka session

reset mka statistics

Use reset mka statistics to clear MKA statistics on ports.

Syntax

Parameters

interface interface-type interface-number: Specifies a port by its type and number. If you do not specify a port, this command clears MKA statistics on all ports.

Examples

# Clear MKA statistics on Ten-GigabitEthernet 4/1/1.

<Sysname> reset mka statistics interface ten-gigabitethernet 4/1/1

validation mode

Use validation mode to set a MACsec validation mode in an MKA policy.

Use undo validation mode to restore the default.

Syntax

validation mode { check | strict }

undo validation mode

Default

The MACsec validation mode is check. The device performs validation only and does not drop illegal frames.

Views

MKA policy view

Predefined user roles

network-admin

mdc-admin

Parameters

check: Performs validation only and does not drop illegal frames.

strict: Performs validation and drops illegal frames.

Usage guidelines

To avoid data loss, use the default validation mode check on the MACsec devices in case of MKA negotiation failure. After you use the display macsec command to verify that MKA negotiation has succeeded, change the validation mode to strict.

When an MKA policy is applied to a port, the MACsec validation mode in the policy overwrites the MACsec validation mode already configured on the port.

Examples

# Set the MACsec validation mode to strict in MKA policy abcd.

<Sysname> system-view

[Sysname] mka policy abcd

[Sysname-mka-policy-abcd] validation mode strict
