Embodiment 1

[0051] see figure 1 , this embodiment provides a cloud management platform that manages multiple firewall resources, the cloud management platform includes: a resource abstraction layer, a network orchestration layer, a driver management layer, and a bottom resource layer, wherein the resource abstraction layer is pre- Build a firewall resource model.

[0052] The following first describes the structure of the firewall resource model: the firewall resource model includes multiple configurable resource items. The configurable resource items include firewalls, firewall policies, firewall rules, firewall service port groups, firewall IP address groups, and automatic firewall rule configuration.

[0053] The specific properties of each configurable resource item are as follows:

[0054] Firewall: including name, description, management status, inbound firewall policy, outbound firewall policy, role, status, configuration status, and VPC (Virtual Private Cloud, abbreviated as VPC)...

Embodiment 2

[0070] Based on the foregoing embodiment 1, the following combination Figure 2 to Figure 4 The structure of each layer will be described in detail.

[0071] like figure 2 As shown, the resource abstraction layer includes a resource configuration module, a resource management module and a database module, and the resource configuration module is used to establish and expand the firewall resource model, so that the user can configure all the firewalls according to the actual needs of the firewall to be created. The attributes of the firewall resource model are described to obtain the resource request for creating the firewall.

[0072] In actual use, the firewall resource model can be expanded through the resource configuration module, the firewall types supported by the cloud management platform can be expanded, and the expansion of third-party firewall resources can also be supported, which improves the ease of use of firewall resources in the cloud management platform. us...

Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2

[0090] In combination with Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, this embodiment provides a method for managing multiple firewall resources. The method is applied to a cloud management platform, and the cloud management platform includes: a resource abstraction layer, a network orchestration layer, and a driver management layer. layer and bottom resource layer, wherein, a firewall resource model is pre-established on the resource abstraction layer;

[0091] As shown in the figure, the method includes the following steps:

[0092] Step 10: The resource abstraction layer receives various attribute information of the firewall to be created, and generates a firewall resource request, wherein the various attribute information is obtained by configuring the firewall resource model.

[0093] Step 11: The network orchestration layer determines the cloud platform type to which the firewall to be created belongs according to the resource request, and orchestrates network resources according to...

Abstract

The invention discloses a cloud management platform and method for managing multiple firewall resources. The cloud management platform includes: a resource abstraction layer, a network arrangement layer, a driver management layer and a bottom resource layer; the resource abstraction layer is used to receive the firewall to be created. Various attribute information, and generate a firewall resource request, where each attribute information is obtained by configuring the firewall resource model; the network orchestration layer is used to determine the cloud platform type to which the firewall to be created belongs according to the resource request, and according to the cloud platform type Arrange network resources; the driver management layer is used to convert parameters of various attribute information of the firewall to be created, and is also used to call the application program interface of the underlying resource layer to pass the attribute information of the firewall to be created to the underlying resource layer. ; The bottom resource layer is used to create the corresponding firewall according to the attribute information of the firewall to be created. The cloud management platform of the present invention realizes the function of managing firewalls of various types and manufacturers.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of firewalls, and more particularly, relates to a cloud management platform and method for managing multiple firewall resources. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development and popularization of cloud computing technology, more and more enterprises choose to migrate their business to the cloud. However, since large enterprises usually use multiple types of cloud platforms, the types of cloud platforms include public cloud (Public Cloud), private cloud (Private Cloud) and cloud native, and the specific network resource architecture also adopts solutions from multiple manufacturers. Enterprises urgently need to build a unified cloud management platform to manage complex cloud infrastructure. The cloud management platform can realize unified management of multiple clouds, realize cross-cloud resource scheduling and orchestration, and realize unified monitoring and operation and maintenance of multiple cloud...
