• FoD v1.5 = FoD with new functionalities: rule range specification, current rule behavior statistic graphs, multi-tenant rule control REST-API
• FoD v1.6 = FoD with automated rule proposal from RepShield
  
  
• FoD v1.5 pilot installation
  • Puppet Engineer Michael Haller is progressing with setting up Puppet for installing FoD v1.5 (including python support environment) so that full automated installation/maintenance of v1.5 will be in place
• Other FoD v1.5 pilot preparations
  • Existing user documentation (as presentation document) has to be updated; Evangelos will distribute it to the mailing list;
  • Excel sheet for pilot acceptance criteria has to be reviewed and finalized
  • Pilot evaluation survey which was of used for FoD v1.1 has to be reviewed and updated for v1.5
  • Finally, Evangelos will prepare an introduction mail for designated pilot users
• FoD v1.5 production service documents
  • Now for the future production phase of FoD v1.5 (and all further versions) all necessary PLM documents have to be prepared, e.g. CBA, service description, service design plan
  • Especially for the operative documents this will be done in close cooperation of Evangelos
  • For most PLM documents, this will be done by filling the FoD service template Wiki pages (https://wiki.geant.org/display/gn42jra2/Firewall-On-Demand+%28FoD%29+Service) which David started to fill
  • Evangelos will check the service template to get acquainted with it
• FoD v1.6 (with RepShield) development/testing/pilot:
  • Evangelos provided new VM with more disk space and CentOS 7 to Václav to install Warden/RepShield for FoD v1.6 pilot; Václav started already to install it
  • Evangelos also installed test version of FlowMon for FoD v1.6 pilot which will run the Warden connector

GARR DDoS D/M PoC

• GARR is progressing with DDoS D/M PoC based on FlowMon
• T6 will have to also investigate how the proposal by GARR can be extended/adapted to be usable also for other NRENs or even how it can be applied more in a Multi-Domain manner.
• So, Silvia/Nino will think about this and as a first step add a section to their PoC proposal document about this

FlowMonfor DDoS detection

• GARR is interested in FlowMon for DDoS detection
• => Evangelos will provide some information, e.g. in about 2 weeks the combined GÉANT DDoS D/M PoC Demo with FlowMon DDoS Defender and A10 should be ready

Reference documentation for CT server v1.0 is progressing

• part of it, i.e. coverage of config options is generated in automated manner (as ascii doc)
• some description parts (e.g. of the config options) are already filled manually
• => Linus/Magnus will provide a draft of it

CT server development

• Improvement of key management, especially for HSM updates/failovers (short downtimes)

• More automation involving NORDUnet/SUNET NoC has been put in place

Deliverable M8.4 "CT Production Service"

• Its content will basically correspond to (where applicable) the various sub pages of the newly created CT service template in the wiki at https://wiki.geant.org/display/gn42jra2/Certificate+Transparency+%28CT%29+Service
• Linus/Magnus will look at both the draft of the deliverable and the service template
