Documentation

Introduction

This package is an opinionated implementation of role based access control for NetBox.

It completely replaces the default authentication backend, using Active Directory for authentication and determining group membership. A user's roles are updated only on login, and are stored in the database.

Once installed, a user may view their roles.

Installation

$ pip3 install netbox-rbac

Configuration

Add the following to urls.py.

_patterns += [
	path('', include('netbox_rbac.urls') ),
]

Add the following to settings.py. Either the LDAP or MOCK driver can be used, but not both.

AUTHENTICATION_BACKENDS = [
    'netbox_rbac.backend.Backend',
]

INSTALLED_APPS += (
	'netbox_rbac',
)

MIDDLEWARE += (
	'netbox_rbac.middleware.Middleware',
)

REST_FRAMEWORK.update({
	'DEFAULT_PERMISSION_CLASSES': (
		'netbox_rbac.api.TokenPermissions',
		'netbox.api.TokenPermissions',
	)
})

LOGGING.update({
	'loggers': {
		'netbox_rbac': {
			'handlers': ['console'],
			'level':     'INFO',
		},
	},
})

LDAP

RBAC = {
	'AUTH': {
		'LDAP': {
			'domain': 'COMPANY.COM',
			'server': 'ldap://ldap.company.com:3268',
			'search': {
				'group': {
					'base':   'OU=Groups,DC=company,DC=com',
					'filter': '(&(sAMAccountName=%s)(objectClass=group))',
				},
				'member': {
					'base':   'OU=Accounts,DC=company,DC=com',
					'filter': '(&(sAMAccountName=%s)(memberOf:1.2.840.113556.1.4.1941:=%s))',
				},
				'user': {
					'base':   'OU=Accounts,DC=company,DC=com',
					'filter': '(&(sAMAccountName=%s)(objectClass=user))',
				},
			},
		},
	},
	'RULE': [
		'/opt/netbox-rules/rules.yaml',
		'https://rules.company.com/rules.yaml',
	],
}

Mock

RBAC = {
	'AUTH': {
		'MOCK': {
			'users': [{
				'username': 'ebusto',
				'password': 'pw12345',
				'email':    'ebusto@nvidia.com',
				'first_name': 'Eric',
				'last_name':  'Busto',
				'groups': ['Access-NetBox-Read', 'Access-NetBox-Admin-DCIM'],
			}],
		},
	},
	'RULE': [
		'/opt/netbox-rules/rules.yaml',
		'https://rules.company.com/rules.yaml',
	],
}

Database

Generate and apply RBAC model migrations.

$ ./manage.py makemigrations netbox_rbac
$ ./manage.py showmigrations
$ ./manage.py migrate

Rules

See the example rules, and documentation. The rule paths can be local files or URLs, and the backend will try each path in turn until it succeeds.
