Disable Kernel Parameter for Accepting Source-Routed Packets on all IPv6 Interfaces
To set the runtime status of the <code>net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_source_route</code> kernel parameter, run the following command: <pre>$ sudo sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_source_route=0</pre> ...Rule Medium Severity -
Disable Kernel Parameter for IPv6 Forwarding
To set the runtime status of the <code>net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding</code> kernel parameter, run the following command: <pre>$ sudo sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.forwarding=0</pre> To make sure that ...Rule Medium Severity -
Disable Accepting Router Advertisements on all IPv6 Interfaces by Default
To set the runtime status of the <code>net.ipv6.conf.default.accept_ra</code> kernel parameter, run the following command: <pre>$ sudo sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.default.accept_ra=0</pre> To make sure...Rule Medium Severity -
Disable Kernel Parameter for Accepting ICMP Redirects by Default on IPv6 Interfaces

Disable Kernel Parameter for Accepting Source-Routed Packets on IPv6 Interfaces by Default

net.ipv4.conf.default.secure_redirects
Enable to prevent hijacking of routing path by only allowing redirects from gateways known in routing table. Disable to refuse acceptance of secure ICMP redirected packages by default.Value -
Kernel Parameters Which Affect Networking
Thesysctl
utility is used to set parameters which affect the operation of the Linux kernel. Kernel parameters which affect networking and have security implications are described here.Group -
Network Related Kernel Runtime Parameters for Hosts and Routers
Certain kernel parameters should be set for systems which are acting as either hosts or routers to improve the system's ability defend against certain types of IPv4 protocol attacks.Group -
net.ipv4.conf.all.accept_redirects
Disable ICMP Redirect AcceptanceValue -
net.ipv4.conf.all.accept_source_route
Trackers could be using source-routed packets to generate traffic that seems to be intra-net, but actually was created outside and has been redirected.Value -
net.ipv4.conf.default.arp_filter
Controls whether the ARP filter is enabled or not. 1 - Allows you to have multiple network interfaces on the same subnet, and have the ARPs for each interface be answered based on whether or not t...Value -
net.ipv4.conf.default.arp_ignore
Control the response modes for ARP queries that resolve local target IP addresses: 0 - (default): reply for any local target IP address, configured on any interface 1 - reply only if the target IP...Value -
net.ipv4.conf.all.log_martians
Disable so you don't Log Spoofed Packets, Source Routed Packets, Redirect PacketsValue -
net.ipv4.conf.all.rp_filter
Enable to enforce sanity checking, also called ingress filtering or egress filtering. The point is to drop a packet if the source and destination IP addresses in the IP header do not make sense whe...Value -
net.ipv4.conf.all.secure_redirects
Enable to prevent hijacking of routing path by only allowing redirects from gateways known in routing table. Disable to refuse acceptance of secure ICMP redirected packets on all interfaces.Value -
net.ipv4.conf.all.shared_media
Controls whether the system can send (router) or accept (host) RFC1620 shared media redirects. <code>shared_media</code> for the interface will be enabled if at least one of conf/{all,interface}/sh...Value -
net.ipv4.conf.default.accept_redirects
Disable ICMP Redirect Acceptance?Value -
net.ipv4.conf.default.accept_source_route
Disable IP source routing?Value -
net.ipv4.conf.default.log_martians
Disable so you don't Log Spoofed Packets, Source Routed Packets, Redirect PacketsValue -
net.ipv4.conf.default.shared_media
Controls whether the system can send(router) or accept(host) RFC1620 shared media redirects. <code>shared_media</code> for the interface will be enabled if at least one of conf/{all,interface}/shar...Value

The content of the drawer really is up to you. It could have form fields, definition lists, text lists, labels, charts, progress bars, etc. Spacing recommendation is 24px margins. You can put tabs in here, and can also make the drawer scrollable.
