OPC UA 连接策略
客户端登录方式
匿名方式
OPC UA 服务端需要开启匿名登录选项。
Neuron OPC UA 模块无需设置用户名/密码和证书/密钥。
用户名/密码方式
OPC UA 服务端已经创建好具备访问权限的用户名/密码。
Neuron OPC UA 模块填写对应的用户名/密码,无需添加证书/密钥。
证书/密钥 + 匿名方式
OPC UA 服务端开启合适的安全设置,添加客户端证书到信任列表,并且开启匿名登录。
Neuron OPC UA 模块添加对应的客户端证书/密钥,无需填写用户名/密码。
证书/密钥 + 用户名/密码方式
OPC UA 服务端已经创建好具备访问权限的用户名/密码,开启合适的安全设置,并添加客户端证书到信任列表。
Neuron OPC UA 模块添加对应的用户名/密码,添加对应的客户端证书/密钥。
安全模式与安全策略
当使用证书认证方式连接 OPC UA 服务器时,需要在 Neuron 中配置安全模式(Security Mode),并确保服务器端启用了匹配的安全策略(Security Policy)。
安全模式(Security Mode)
安全模式决定了 OPC UA 消息在传输过程中是否受到密码学保护:
| 安全模式 | 说明 |
|---|---|
| None | 无安全保护,消息以明文传输。 |
| Sign | 消息经过数字签名以确保完整性,但内容不加密。 |
| Sign&Encrypt | 消息同时进行签名和加密,提供完整性和机密性双重保护。 |
TIP
生产环境中推荐使用 Sign&Encrypt,防止数据篡改和窃听。如果网络已在传输层做安全加固且对加密开销有顾虑,可考虑使用 Sign 模式。
安全策略(Security Policy)
安全策略定义了签名和加密所使用的具体密码学算法。当 Neuron 以 Sign 或 Sign&Encrypt 模式连接服务器时,客户端和服务器会自动协商一个双方都支持的安全策略。以下是常见的安全策略:
| 安全策略 | 对称加密算法 | 密钥交换算法 | 数字签名算法 | 状态 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Basic128Rsa15 | AES-128 | RSA-15 | SHA-1 | 已弃用 |
| Basic256 | AES-256 | RSA-OAEP | SHA-1 | 已弃用 |
| Basic256Sha256 | AES-256 | RSA-OAEP | SHA-256 | 推荐使用 |
| Aes128_Sha256_RsaOaep | AES-128 | RSA-OAEP | SHA-256 | 推荐使用 |
TIP
- Basic128Rsa15 和 Basic256 因使用 SHA-1 算法,在 OPC UA 规范中已被标记为弃用,新部署中应避免使用。
- 推荐使用 Basic256Sha256 和 Aes128_Sha256_RsaOaep。其中 Basic256Sha256 使用 AES-256 加密,提供最高的安全强度。
- 服务器必须至少启用一种与客户端兼容的安全策略。如果未找到匹配的策略,连接将失败。
安全模式与安全策略的协同工作方式
在 Neuron 中,用户仅选择安全模式(None/Sign/Sign&Encrypt),无需也不能选择具体的安全策略。策略选择由OPC UA 驱动自动完成。
客户端初始化: Neuron 启动 OPC UA 连接时,会注册驱动支持的所有内置安全策略:
- None
- Basic128Rsa15
- Basic256
- Basic256Sha256
- Aes128Sha256RsaOaep
- Aes256Sha256RsaPss
然后将用户配置的安全模式(Sign 或 Sign&Encrypt)应用到客户端配置中。
TIP
如果安全模式选择了 Sign 或 Sign&Encrypt,但没有上传证书和密钥,Neuron 会使用内置的默认证书和密钥。
连接协商(首次匹配即选中): 连接服务器时,流程如下:
- Neuron 会获取服务器支持的所有端点列表,包括每个端点的 Security Mode 和 Security Policy。
- 客户端按服务器返回的顺序逐一遍历端点。
- 对每个端点检查两个条件:
- 端点的
securityMode必须与 Neuron 中配置的安全模式一致。 - 端点的
securityPolicyUri必须在客户端支持的策略列表中。
- 端点的
- 第一个同时满足两个条件的端点即被选中,用于后续连接。
因此,服务器端点的返回顺序实际上决定了策略优先级。例如,假设服务器按以下顺序返回端点:
端点1: None, policy=None → 安全模式不匹配(None ≠ Sign&Encrypt),跳过
端点2: Sign, policy=Basic256Sha256 → 安全模式不匹配(Sign ≠ Sign&Encrypt),跳过
端点3: Sign&Encrypt, policy=Aes256Sha256RsaPss → 匹配!选中
端点4: Sign&Encrypt, policy=Aes128Sha256RsaOaep → 不再遍历TIP
- 如果需要使用特定的安全策略,应在服务器端配置使其端点排在
GetEndpoints返回列表的前面。 - 如果找不到匹配的端点,连接将失败。请确保服务器至少有一个端点的安全模式与 Neuron 配置一致,且其安全策略在 驱动支持列表中。
客户端证书要求
OPC UA 可通过用户自签名证书登录到 OPC UA 服务器,Certificate 和 Key 必须满足以下条件:
CERTIFICATE 和 KEYFILE 必须同时设置;
Certificate 必须以 X.509v3 标准生成;
Certficate 的 SAN 字段必须包含
URI:urn:xxx.xxx.xxx,xxx为自定义部分;Certificate 文件和 Key 文件必须使用 DER 格式编码。
TIP
证书文件可以提前导入到目标服务器中并设置为信任,也可以由 Neuron 设置后自动提交再由服务端设置为信任。
客户端证书/密钥转换
可以通过以下步骤和命令将 PEM 证书以及私钥转换为 DER 格式。
将包括
-----BEGIN CERTIFICATE-----和-----END CERTIFICATE-----的所有内容保存为 1.crt;将包括
-----BEGIN PRIVATE KEY-----和-----END PRIVATE KEY-----的所有内容保存为 1.key;执行如下命令:
$ openssl x509 -in 1.crt -outform der -out cert.der
$ openssl rsa -inform PEM -in 1.key -outform DER -out key.der客户端证书/密钥生成
Windows、Linux 和 Mac OS 系统下的生成方式一致。
$ openssl req -config localhost.cnf -new -nodes -x509 -sha256 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout localhost.key -days 365 -subj "/C=DE/O=neuron/CN=NeuronClient@localhost" -out localhost.crt
$ openssl x509 -in localhost.crt -outform der -out client_cert.der
openssl rsa -inform PEM -in localhost.key -outform DER -out client_key.der
$ rm localhost.crt
$ rm localhost.key-days 可以根据需要设置数值。
-config 指定的 *.cnf 文件可以使用下一节的文件附件 localhost.cnf 进行修改,需包含如下配置节:
[ v3_req ]
# Extensions to add to a certificate request
basicConstraints = CA:FALSE
keyUsage = nonRepudiation, digitalSignature, keyEncipherment
subjectAltName = @alt_names
[ alt_names ]
URI.1 = urn:xxx.xxx.xxx
DNS.1 = localhost
#DNS.2 = localhost
IP.1 = 127.0.0.1
#IP.2 = 0.0.0.0服务器端配置
当 Neuron 使用 Sign 或 Sign&Encrypt 模式时,OPC UA 服务器端必须进行以下配置:
- 启用所需的安全策略。
- 信任上传至 Neuron 的客户端证书。
以下以常用的工业 OPC UA 服务器为例,介绍具体配置步骤。
通用配置原则
- 使用 OpenSSL 生成客户端证书并上传至 Neuron(参考客户端证书/密钥生成)。
- 在目标服务器上启用安全策略 — 至少启用 Basic256Sha256 或 Aes128_Sha256_RsaOaep。
- 将客户端证书(DER 格式)导入服务器的受信任客户端列表。
- 重启服务器或重新初始化 OPC UA 服务以使配置生效。
示例:西门子 S7-1200(TIA Portal)
通过 TIA Portal 配置 S7-1200 内置 OPC UA 服务器:
- 在 TIA Portal 中选择目标 PLC,右键打开 属性 -> 常规 -> OPC UA -> 服务器。
- 在 安全性 -> 服务器可用的安全策略 列表中,勾选所需的安全策略:
- 勾选 Basic256Sha256(推荐)或其他需要使用的策略。
- 在 受信任的客户端 区域,配置客户端证书信任:
- 勾选 在运行期间自动接受客户端证书(便于初始调试),或
- 通过证书管理器手动导入客户端证书。
- 关闭访客认证,如需使用用户名/密码登录,则启用用户名和密码认证。
- 编译并下载硬件配置到 PLC。
更多 S7-1200 配置细节,请参考 连接西门子 S7-1200。
示例:KEPServerEX
在 KEPServerEX 中配置 OPC UA 服务器安全策略:
- 右键单击系统托盘中的 KEPServerEX 图标,选择 OPC UA 配置 -> 服务器端点。
- 双击端点条目(如
opc.tcp://localhost:49320)。 - 在 安全策略 区域,勾选所需策略:
- 勾选 Basic256Sha256(推荐)。
- 点击确定保存端点配置。
- 客户端证书上传至 Neuron 后,右键点击 KEPServerEX 图标,选择 OPC UA 配置 -> 受信任的客户端。
- 点击导入,浏览选择 Neuron 客户端证书文件(DER 格式),将其添加到信任列表。
- 右键点击 KEPServerEX 图标,选择重新初始化使配置生效。
