--- name: Cisco IOS XE Security Hardening Tool description: Professional Cisco Router & Switch Security Configuration Generator --- # Overview The Cisco IOS XE Security Hardening Tool is a professional-grade API service designed to automatically generate security-hardened configuration files for Cisco routers and switches running IOS XE. Built for network security engineers, compliance officers, and infrastructure teams, this tool eliminates manual configuration errors and accelerates the deployment of security best practices across enterprise Cisco environments. This tool enables security-focused organizations to rapidly generate compliant, hardened configurations that align with industry standards and internal security policies. By automating the configuration generation process, teams reduce human error, ensure consistency across network devices, and maintain audit-ready documentation of security implementations. Ideal users include network security engineers, infrastructure architects, compliance teams managing large Cisco deployments, managed service providers (MSPs), and organizations undergoing security certifications or regulatory audits requiring documented hardening standards. # Usage ## Sample Request Generate a hardened Cisco IOS XE configuration with SSH, NTP security, and access control options enabled: ```json { "sessionId": "sess_6f8c4d92e1a3b5c7", "userId": 12847, "timestamp": "2025-01-15T14:23:45Z", "hardeningOptions": { "authentication": ["ssh", "aaa"], "encryption": ["ipsec", "tls"], "logging": ["syslog", "netflow"], "access_control": ["acl", "rbac"] } } ``` ## Sample Response ```json { "status": "success", "sessionId": "sess_6f8c4d92e1a3b5c7", "configurationId": "cfg_a7f2e9d1c3b6", "timestamp": "2025-01-15T14:23:46Z", "hardening_applied": [ "SSH_ENABLE", "AAA_CONFIGURATION", "IPSEC_TUNNEL_SETUP", "TLS_CERTIFICATE_INSTALL", "SYSLOG_SERVER_CONFIG", "NETFLOW_ENABLE", "ACL_DEPLOYMENT", "RBAC_ROLES" ], "configuration_snippet": "ip ssh version 2\nip ssh authentication retries 2\nip ssh time-out 60\naaa new-model\n...", "estimated_lines": 247, "supported_platforms": ["Catalyst 9300", "Catalyst 9400", "ISR 4000", "ASR 1000"], "warnings": [], "next_steps": "Review configuration, test in lab environment, apply to device using SCP or Ansible" } ``` # Endpoints ## GET / **Health Check Endpoint** Returns service status and availability. **Method:** GET **Path:** `/` **Parameters:** None **Response:** - HTTP 200: Service is operational - Content-Type: `application/json` - Response body: Health status object --- ## POST /api/hardening/generate **Generate Hardening Config** Generates Cisco IOS XE security hardening configuration files based on selected hardening options. **Method:** POST **Path:** `/api/hardening/generate` **Request Body (JSON):** | Parameter | Type | Required | Description | |-----------|------|----------|-------------| | `sessionId` | string | Yes | Unique session identifier for request tracking | | `userId` | integer or null | No | User identifier for audit logging and billing attribution | | `timestamp` | string | Yes | ISO 8601 formatted timestamp of request generation | | `hardeningOptions` | object | Yes | Dictionary of hardening categories with array of enabled options (e.g., `{"authentication": ["ssh", "aaa"], "encryption": ["ipsec"]}`) | **Response (HTTP 200):** - Content-Type: `application/json` - Successful generation response with configuration details, applied hardening measures, estimated configuration line count, supported platforms, and warnings **Response (HTTP 422):** - Validation Error - returned when required fields are missing or malformed - Contains `detail` array with validation error objects (`loc`, `msg`, `type`) --- ## GET /api/hardening/options **Get Hardening Options** Retrieves all available hardening options, categories, and supported configurations for Cisco IOS XE devices. **Method:** GET **Path:** `/api/hardening/options` **Parameters:** None **Response (HTTP 200):** - Content-Type: `application/json` - Returns complete catalog of available hardening options organized by category (authentication, encryption, logging, access_control, threat_defense, etc.) - Each option includes description, platform compatibility, and configuration complexity # Pricing | Plan | Calls/Day | Calls/Month | Price | |------|-----------|-------------|-------| | Free | 5 | 50 | Free | | Developer | 20 | 500 | $39/mo | | Professional | 200 | 5,000 | $99/mo | | Enterprise | 100,000 | 1,000,000 | $299/mo | # About ToolWeb.in - 200+ security APIs, CISSP & CISM, platforms: Pay-per-run, API Gateway, MCP Server, OpenClaw, RapidAPI, YouTube. - [toolweb.in](https://toolweb.in) - [portal.toolweb.in](https://portal.toolweb.in) - [hub.toolweb.in](https://hub.toolweb.in) - [toolweb.in/openclaw/](https://toolweb.in/openclaw/) - [rapidapi.com/user/mkrishna477](https://rapidapi.com/user/mkrishna477) - [youtube.com/@toolweb-009](https://youtube.com/@toolweb-009) # References - **Kong Route:** https://api.mkkpro.com/hardening/cisco-iosxe - **API Docs:** https://api.mkkpro.com:8139/docs
