SRG-NET-000019-RTR-000001
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The Juniper router must be configured to disable the auxiliary port unless it is connected to a secured modem providing encryption and authentication.
<VulnDiscussion>The use of POTS lines to modems connecting to network devices provides clear text of authentication traffic over commercial c...Rule Low Severity -
SRG-NET-000202-RTR-000001
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The Juniper perimeter router must be configured to deny network traffic by default and allow network traffic by exception.
<VulnDiscussion>A deny-all, permit-by-exception network communications traffic policy ensures that only connections that are essential and ap...Rule High Severity -
SRG-NET-000019-RTR-000002
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The Juniper perimeter router must be configured to enforce approved authorizations for controlling the flow of information between interconnected networks in accordance with applicable policy.
<VulnDiscussion>Information flow control regulates authorized information to travel within a network and between interconnected networks. Con...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-NET-000364-RTR-000109
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The Juniper perimeter router must be configured to only allow incoming communications from authorized sources to be routed to authorized destinations.
<VulnDiscussion>Unrestricted traffic may contain malicious traffic that poses a threat to an enclave or to other connected networks. Addition...Rule Medium Severity -
SRG-NET-000364-RTR-000110
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The Juniper perimeter router must be configured to protect an enclave connected to an alternate gateway by using an inbound filter that only permits packets with destination addresses within the sites address space.
<VulnDiscussion>Enclaves with alternate gateway connections must take additional steps to ensure there is no compromise on the enclave networ...Rule High Severity -
SRG-NET-000019-RTR-000009
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The Juniper perimeter router must be configured to not be a Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) peer to an alternate gateway service provider.
<VulnDiscussion>ISPs use BGP to share route information with other autonomous systems (i.e. other ISPs and corporate networks). If the perime...Rule High Severity -
SRG-NET-000019-RTR-000010
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The Juniper perimeter router must be configured to not redistribute static routes to an alternate gateway service provider into BGP or an IGP peering with the NIPRNet or to other autonomous systems.
<VulnDiscussion>If the static routes to the alternate gateway are being redistributed into an Exterior Gateway Protocol or Interior Gateway P...Rule Low Severity -
SRG-NET-000205-RTR-000014
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The Juniper perimeter router must be configured to restrict it from accepting outbound IP packets that contain an illegitimate address in the source address field via egress filter or by enabling Unicast Reverse Path Forwarding (uRPF).
<VulnDiscussion>A compromised host in an enclave can be used by a malicious platform to launch cyberattacks on third parties. This is a commo...Rule High Severity -
SRG-NET-000205-RTR-000003
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The Juniper perimeter router must be configured to have Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) disabled on all external interfaces.
<VulnDiscussion>LLDPs are primarily used to obtain protocol addresses of neighboring devices and discover platform capabilities of those devi...Rule Low Severity -
SRG-NET-000364-RTR-000112
<GroupDescription></GroupDescription>Group -
The Juniper perimeter router must be configured to have Proxy ARP disabled on all external interfaces.
<VulnDiscussion>When Proxy ARP is enabled on a router, it allows that router to extend the network (at Layer 2) across multiple interfaces (L...Rule Medium Severity
