How to offload or inspect HTTPS

Whether offloading or merely inspecting for HTTPS, FortiWeb must have a copy of your protected web servers’ X.509 server certificates. FortiWeb also has its own server certificate, which it uses to prove its own identity.

Which certificate will be used, and how, depends on the purpose.

For connections to the web UI—The FortiWeb appliance presents its own HTTPS Server Certificate which is used only for connections to the web UI.

A Fortinet factory default certificate is used as the FortiWeb appliance’s HTTPS server certificate. It can be replaced with other certificates. For details, see How to change FortiWeb's default certificate.

For SSL offloading or SSL inspection—Server certificates do not belong to the FortiWeb appliance itself, but instead belong to the protected web servers. FortiWeb uses the web server’s certificate because it either acts as an SSL agent for the web server, or is privy to its secure connections for the purpose of scanning. You select which one the FortiWeb appliance uses when you configure Enable Server Name Indication (SNI) or Certificate in a policy (see Configuring an HTTP server policy) or Certificate File in a server pool (see Uploading a server certificate).
For connections to back-end servers—A certificate you specify in a server pool configuration if connections to a pool member require a valid client certificate. For details, see Creating a server pool.

System > Certificates > Local displays all X.509 server certificates that are stored locally, on the FortiWeb appliance, for the purpose of offloading or scanning HTTPS.

FortiWeb presents a server certificate when any client requests a secure connection, including when:

Administrators connect to the web UI (HTTPS connections only)
Clients use SSL or TLS to connect to a virtual server, if you enabled SSL offloading in the policy (HTTPS connections and Reverse Proxy mode only)

Although it does not present a certificate during SSL/TLS inspection, FortiWeb still requires server certificates in order to decrypt and scan HTTPS connections traveling through it (SSL inspection) if operating in any mode except Reverse Proxy. Otherwise, FortiWeb will not be able to scan the traffic, and will not be able to protect that web server.

If you want clients to be able to use HTTPS with your website, but your website does not already have a server certificate to represent its authenticity, you must first generate a certificate signing request. For details, see Generating a certificate signing request. Otherwise, start with Uploading a server certificate.

Using session keys provided by an HSM

You can integrate FortiWeb with SafeNet Network HSM 7 (hardware security module) to retrieve a per-connection, SSL session key instead of loading the private key and certificate stored on FortiWeb.

This release only supports SafeNet Network HSM 7 device, and device models older than SafeNet Network HSM 7 device are not supported. Do confirm your device model before upgrading FortiWeb.

Before the upgrade, you need to manually delete the original HSM configurations to avoid configuration residual. Otherwise, you need to manually delete the original HSM certificate, HSM partition, and HSM info configurations, and then reconfigure it.

Integration of SafeNet Network HSM 7 with FortiWeb requires specific configuration steps for both appliances, including the following tasks:

On the HSM:
- Create one or more HSM partitions for FortiWeb
- Send the FortiWeb client certificate to the HSM
- Register the FortiWeb HSM client to the partition
- Retrieve the HSM server certificate
On FortiWeb:
- Configure communication with the HSM, including using the server and client certificates to register FortiWeb as a client of the HSM
- Generate a certificate signing request (CSR) that includes the HSM configuration information
- Upload the signed certificate to FortiWeb

When configuring your CSR to work with an HSM, the CSR generation process creates a private key on both the HSM and FortiWeb. The private key on the HSM is the "real" key that secures communication when FortiWeb uses the signed certificate. The key found on the FortiWeb is used when you upload the certificate to FortiWeb.

To integrate FortiWeb with SafeNet Network HSM 7

On HSM - Use the partition create command to create and initialize a new HSM partition that uses password authentication. This is the partition FortiWeb uses on the HSM. FortiWeb supports only one partition.

partition create -par <fortiweb> -pas <fortiweb> -do <fortinet.com>

For details, see the HSM documentation.

Use an SCP utility and the following command to retrieve the server certificate file from the HSM to local PC.

scp –c aes256-cbc <hsm_username>@<hsm_ip>:server.pem

<local_pc>/server_<hsm_IP>.pem

On FortiWeb - Log in to CLI, enable the HSM function and the high compatibility mode.

config server-policy setting

set hsm enable

set high-compatibility-mode enable

end

Server IP	Enter the IP address of the HSM.
Port	Enter the port where FortiWeb establishes an NTLS connection with the HSM. The default is `1792`.
Timeout	Enter a timeout value for the connection between HSM and FortiWeb.
Upload Server Certificate File	Click Choose File and navigate to the server certificate file you retrieved in step 2.
Create Client	Click Create Client to create FortiWeb as a client of the HSM using the specified server and client certificates. You will be prompted to return when creation is successful.
Destroy Client	Click Destroy Client to cancel FortiWeb as a client of the HSM.
Download Client Certificate File	Click Download to download the client certificate file to local PC. Available only when Create Client is successful.

After the creation is completed, click Download to download the client certificate file to local PC. Please note that client file is not available to download if the creation is not successful.
Use the SCP utility and the following command to send the downloaded FortiWeb client certificate to the HSM.

scp –c aes256-cbc <local_PC>/<fortiweb_ip>.pem admin@<hsm_ip>:

On HSM - Using SSH, connect to the HSM using the admin account, and then use the following command to register a client for FortiWeb on the HSM.

lunash:> client register -c <client_name> -i <fortiweb_ip>

where <client_name> is a name you choose that identifies the client.

Use the following command to assign the client you registered to the partition you created earlier:

lunash:> client assignPartition -client <client_name> -partition <partition_name>

You can verify the assignment using the following command:

lunash:> client show -client <client_name>

On FortiWeb - Add the partition and password created previously on HSM.
Go to System > Config > HSM. Click Create New and complete the following settings.

Partition Name	Enter the name of a partition that the FortiWeb HSM client is assigned to.
Password	Enter the partition password.

Go to Certificates > Local and click Generate to generate a certificate signing request that references the HSM connection and partition.

For details, see Generating a certificate signing request.

After the HSM-based certificate is signed by CA, go to Certificate > Local and click Import to import it.

For details, see Uploading a server certificate.

To use a certificate, you select it in a policy or server pool configuration. For details, see Configuring an HTTP server policy or Creating a server pool.

Generating a certificate signing request

Many commercial certificate authorities (CAs) provide a website where you can generate your own certificate signing request (CSR). A CSR is an unsigned certificate file that the CA signs. When you generate a CSR, the associated private key that the appliance uses to sign and/or encrypt connections with clients is also generated.

If your CA does not provide this, or if you have your own private CA such as a Linux server with OpenSSL, you can use the appliance to generate a CSR and private key. Then, you can submit this CSR for verification and signing by the CA.

To generate a certificate request

Go to System > Certificates > Local.
To access this part of the web UI, your administrator's account access profile must have Read and Write permission to items in the Admin Users category. For details, see Permissions.
Click Generate.
Configure these settings to complete the certificate signing request:

Certification Name		Enter a unique name for the certificate request, such as `www.example.com`. This can be the name of your website.
Subject Information		Includes information that the certificate is required to contain in order to uniquely identify the FortiWeb appliance. This area varies depending on the ID Type selection.
	ID Type	Select the type of identifier to use in the certificate to identify the FortiWeb appliance: Host IP—Select if the FortiWeb appliance has a static IP address and enter the public IP address of the FortiWeb appliance in the IP field. If the FortiWeb appliance does not have a public IP address, use E-mail or Domain Name instead. Domain Name—Select if the FortiWeb appliance has a static IP address and subscribes to a dynamic DNS service. Enter the FQDN of the FortiWeb appliance, such as `www.example.com`, in the Domain Name field. Do not include the protocol specification (http://) or any port number or path names. E-Mail—Select and enter the email address of the owner of the FortiWeb appliance in the e-mail field. Use this if the appliance does not require either a static IP address or a domain name. The type you should select varies by whether or not your FortiWeb appliance has a static IP address, a fully-qualified domain name (FQDN), and by the primary intended use of the certificate. For example, if your FortiWeb appliance has both a static IP address and a domain name, but you will primarily use the local certificate for HTTPS connections to the web UI by the domain name of the FortiWeb appliance, you might prefer to generate a certificate based upon the domain name of the FortiWeb appliance, rather than its IP address. Depending on your choice for ID Type, related options appear.
	IP	Type the static IP address of the FortiWeb appliance, such as `192.0.2.123`. The IP address should be the one that is visible to clients. Usually, this should be its public IP address on the Internet, or a virtual IP that you use NAT to map to the appliance’s IP address on your private network. This option appears only if ID Type is Host IP.
	Domain Name	Type the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the FortiWeb appliance, such as `www.example.com`. The domain name must resolve to the static IP address of the FortiWeb appliance or protected server. For details, see Configuring the network interfaces. This option appears only if ID Type is Domain Name.
	E-mail	Type the email address of the owner of the FortiWeb appliance, such as `admin@example.com`. This option appears only if ID Type is E-Mail.
Optional Information		Includes information that you may include in the certificate, but which is not required.
	Organization unit	Type the name of your organizational unit (OU), such as the name of your department. This is optional. To enter more than one OU name, click the + icon, and enter each OU separately in each field.
	Organization	Type the legal name of your organization. This is optional.
	Locality(City)	Type the name of the city or town where the FortiWeb appliance is located. This is optional.
	State/Province	Type the name of the state or province where the FortiWeb appliance is located. This is optional.
	Country/Region	Select the name of the country where the FortiWeb appliance is located. This is optional.
	e-mail	Type an email address that may be used for contact purposes, such as `admin@example.com`. This is optional.
	Subject Alternative Names	Type the Subject Alternative Names to specify additional host names (sites, IP addresses, common names, etc.) to be protected by a single SSL Certificate
Key Type		Displays the type of algorithm used to generate the key. This option cannot be changed, but appears in order to indicate that only RSA is currently supported.
Key Size		Select a secure key size of 1024 Bit, 1536 Bit or 2048 Bit. Larger keys are slower to generate, but provide better security.
HSM		Select if the private key for the connections is provided by an HSM instead of FortiWeb. Available only if you have enabled HSM settings using the `config system global` command. For details, see Using session keys provided by an HSM.
	Partition Name	Enter the name of a partition where the private key for this certificate is located on the HSM. Available only if Using session keys provided by an HSM is selected.
Enrollment Method		Select either: File Based—You must manually download and submit the resulting certificate request file to a certificate authority (CA) for signing. Once signed, upload the local certificate. Online SCEP—The FortiWeb appliance will automatically use HTTP to submit the request to the simple certificate enrollment protocol (SCEP) server of a CA, which will validate and sign the certificate. For this selection, two options appear. Enter the CA Server URL and the Challenge Password. Not available if Using session keys provided by an HSM is selected.

Click OK.

The FortiWeb appliance creates a private and public key pair. The generated request includes the public key of the FortiWeb appliance and information such as the FortiWeb appliance’s IP address, domain name, or email address. The FortiWeb appliance’s private key remains confidential on the FortiWeb appliance. The Status column of the entry is PENDING.

If you configured your CSR to work with the FortiWeb HSM configuration, the CSR generation process creates a private key both on the HSM and on FortiWeb. The private key on the HSM is used to secure communication when FortiWeb uses the certificate. The FortiWeb private key is used when you upload the certificate to FortiWeb.

Select the row that corresponds to the certificate request.
Click Download.

Standard dialogs appear with buttons to save the file at a location you select. Your web browser downloads the certificate request .csr file. Time required varies by the size of the file and the speed of your network connection.

Upload the certificate request to your CA.

After you submit the request to a CA, the CA will verify the information in the certificate, give it a serial number, an expiration date, and sign it with the public key of the CA.

If you are not using a commercial CA whose root certificate is already installed by default on web browsers, download your CA’s root certificate, then install it on all computers that will be connecting to your appliance. If you do not install these, those computers may not trust your new certificate.
When you receive the signed certificate from the CA, upload the certificate to the FortiWeb appliance. For details, see Uploading a server certificate.

Uploading a server certificate

You also use this process to upload a client certificate for FortiWeb. You add this certificate to a server pool configuration if connections to a pool member require a valid client certificate. For details, see Creating a server pool.

You can import (upload) either:

Base64-encoded
PKCS #12 RSA-encrypted

X.509 server certificates and private keys to the FortiWeb appliance.

DSA-encrypted certificates are not supported if the FortiWeb appliance is operating in a mode other than Reverse Proxy. For details, see Supported features in each operation mode.

If a server certificate is signed by an intermediate certificate authority (CA) rather than a root CA, before clients will trust the server certificate, you must demonstrate a link with root CAs that the clients trust, thereby proving that the server certificate is genuine. You can demonstrate this chain of trust either by:

Appending a signing chain in the server certificate.
Uploading and configuring a signing chain separately. For details, see Supplementing a server certificate with its signing chain.
Installing each intermediary CA’s certificate in clients’ trust stores (list of trusted CAs).

Which method is best for you often depends on whether you have a convenient method for deploying CA certificates to clients (as you can, for example, in an internal Microsoft Active Directory domain) and whether you often refresh the server certificate.

To append a signing chain in the certificate itself, before uploading the server certificate to the FortiWeb appliance

Open the certificate file in a plain text editor.
Append the certificate of each intermediary CA in order from the intermediary CA who signed the local certificate to the intermediary CA whose certificate was signed directly by a trusted root CA.

For example, a server’s certificate that includes a signing chain might use the following structure:

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

-----END CERTIFICATE-----

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

-----END CERTIFICATE-----

-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----

-----END CERTIFICATE-----

Save the certificate.

To upload a certificate

The total file size of all certificates, private keys, and any other uploaded files may not exceed 12 MB.

You don't need to import the private key file paired with this certificate because it is already stored on FortiWeb when you generated the CSR. Certificate—Select this option if the certificate is in PEM or DER format (with extensions such as .pem, .cer, .crt, etc.), and the CSR for this certificate is not generated on FortiWeb. You need to import the private key file paired with this certificate when you select Certificate. PKCS12 Certificate—Select this option if the certificate is in PKCS12 format. Other fields may appear depending on your selection.
HSM	Select if you configured the CSR for this certificate to work with an integrated HSM. Available only if you have enabled HSM settings using the `config system global` command. , and the key file paired with this certificate is not generated on FortiWeb.

Click OK.
To use a certificate, you must select it in a policy or server pool configuration (see Configuring an HTTP server policy or Creating a server pool).

Supplementing a server certificate with its signing chain

If a server certificate is signed by an intermediate (non-root) certificate authority rather than a root CA, before the client will trust the server’s certificate, you must demonstrate a link with trusted root CAs, thereby proving that the server’s certificate is genuine. Otherwise, the server certificate may cause the end-user’s web browser to display certificate warnings.

If you did not append the signing chain inside the server certificate itself, you must configure the FortiWeb appliance to provide the certificates of intermediate CAs when it presents the server certificate.

To upload an intermediate CA’s certificate

The total file size of all certificates, private keys, and any other uploaded files may not exceed 12 MB.

Go to System > Certificates > Intermediate CA and select the Intermediate CA tab.

You can click View Certificate Detail to view the selected certificate’s subject, range of dates within which the certificate is valid, version number, serial number, and extensions (purposes).

Click OK.

Repeat the previous steps for each intermediary CA certificate that you want to add to the group.

To apply an intermediary CA certificate group, select it for Certificate Intermediate Group in a policy that uses HTTPS, with the server certificate that was signed by those CAs. For details, see Configuring an HTTP server policy.

FortiWeb appliance will present both the server’s certificate and those of the intermediate CAs when establishing a secure connection with the client.

Configuring multiple local certificates

You can now configure RSA, DSA, and ECDSA certificates into Multi-certificate, and reference them in server policy in Reverse Proxy mode and pserver in True Transparent Proxy mode. These certificates are used in SSL connections, automatically selected and sent to SSL client according to the SSL cipher negotiated during SSL handshake.

You can configure all three types of certificates to support the most cipher suites, or one or two of them. In case no RSA certificate is configured, FortiWeb will use default RSA certificate.

You can select each of the type from local certificates to create a multi-certificate group. Every certificate type corresponds to a set of SSL ciphers.

Meanwhile, this feature has conflict with OCSP stapling settings, when it is enabled, the OSCP stapling feature will be turned off.

To configure a multi-certificate rule

Go to System > Certificates > Multi-certificate.
Click Create New.
To access this part of the web UI, your administrator's account access profile must have Read and Write permission to items in the Admin Users category. For details, see Permissions.

Click OK.
Repeat the steps to add multiple certificate rules.
To use the multi-certificate rule, you select it in a server policy. For details, see Configuring an HTTP server policy.

Allowing FortiWeb to support multiple server certificates

In some cases, servers host multiple secure websites that use a different certificate for each host. To allow FortiWeb to present the appropriate certificate for SSL offloading, you create an inline or offline Server Name Indication (SNI) configuration that identifies the certificate to use by domain. The SNI configuration can also specify the client certificate verification to use for the specified domain, if the host requires it.

You can select an inline SNI configuration in a server policy only when FortiWeb is operating in Reverse Proxy mode and True Transparent Proxy mode, and an HTTPS configuration is applied to the policy.

The offline SNI is used in pserver of server pool in Offline Inspection mode or Transparent Inspection mode. FortiWeb uses the server certificate to decrypt SSL-secured connections for the website specified by domain.

If the server pool is used in the server policy, SSL traffic can not only be decoded by the certificate configured in the server pool, but also by that configured in SNI policy if the server name of the SSL traffic matches the domain of the SNI policy rule.

Not all web browsers support SNI. Go to the following location for a list of web browsers that support SNI:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Server_Name_Indication#Browsers_with_support_for_TLS_server_name_indication.5B10.5D

Domain Type	Select Simple String to match a domain to certificates using a literal domain specified in Domain. Otherwise, select Regular Expression to match multiple domains to certificates using a regular expression specified in Domain.
Domain	Specify the domain of the secure website (HTTPS) that uses the certificate specified by Local Certificate. Enter a literal domain if Simple String is selected in Domain Type, or enter a regular expression if Regular Expression is selected. After you fill in the field with a regular expression, you can fine-tune the expression in a Regular Expression Validator by clicking the >> button on the side. For details, see Regular expression syntax.
Local Certificate	Select the server certificate that FortiWeb uses to encrypt or decrypt SSL-secured connections for the website specified by Domain. For details, see Uploading a server certificate.
Enable Multi-certificate	Enable this option to allow FortiWeb to use multiple local certificates.
Multi-certificate	Select the local server certificate created in System > Certificates > Multi-certificate that FortiWeb uses to encrypt or decrypt SSL-secured connections for the website specified by Domain. For details, see Uploading a server certificate.
Intermediate CA Group	Select the name of a group of intermediate certificate authority (CA) certificates, if any, that FortiWeb presents to validate the CA signature of the certificate specified by Local Certificate. If clients receive certificate warnings that an intermediary CA has signed the server certificate configured in Local Certificate, rather than by a root CA or other CA currently trusted by the client directly, configure this option. For details, see Grouping trusted CA certificates. Alternatively, include the entire signing chain in the server certificate itself before you upload it to FortiWeb, which completes the chain of trust with a CA already known to the client. For details, see Uploading a server certificate and Supplementing a server certificate with its signing chain.
Certificate Verify	Select the name of a certificate verifier, if any, that FortiWeb uses when an HTTP client presents its personal certificate to the website specified by Domain. If you do not select one, the client is not required to present a personal certificate. For details, see How to apply PKI client authentication (personal certificates). Personal certificates, sometimes also called user certificates, establish the identity of the person connecting to the website (PKI authentication). You can require that clients present a certificate instead of, or in addition to, HTTP authentication. For details, see Offloaded authentication and optional SSO configuration. Note: The client must support TLS 1.0.
OCSP Stapling Config	Select an OCSP stapling policy to apply to the certificate. OCSP stapling is an improved approach to OCSP for verifying the revocation status of certificates in which FortiWeb periodically queries the OCSP server and cache a time-stamped OCSP response for a set period. The cached response is then included, or "stapled," with the TLS/SSL handshake so that the client can validate the certificate status when it makes a request. When Enable Multi-certificate is enabled, this option is turned off. For details, see Configuring OCSP stapling.
