F5 BIG-IP Local Traffic Manager Security Technical Implementation Guide
Rules, Groups, and Values defined within the XCCDF Benchmark
-
The BIG-IP Core implementation must require users to reauthenticate when the user's role, the information authorizations, and/or the maximum session timeout is exceeded for the virtual server(s).
<VulnDiscussion>Without reauthentication, users may access resources or perform tasks for which authorization has been removed. In addition ...Rule Medium Severity -

A BIG-IP Core implementation providing user authentication intermediary services must be configured to require multifactor authentication for remote access to non-privileged accounts in such a way that one of the factors is provided by a device separate from the system gaining access.
<VulnDiscussion>For remote access to non-privileged accounts, the purpose of requiring a device that is separate from the information system ...Rule Medium Severity -

The BIG-IP Core implementation must be configured to retain the Standard Mandatory DoD-approved Notice and Consent Banner on the screen until users accessing virtual servers acknowledge the usage conditions and take explicit actions to log on for further access.
<VulnDiscussion>The banner must be acknowledged by the user prior to allowing the user access to virtual servers. This provides assurance tha...Rule Low Severity -

The BIG-IP Core implementation must be configured to enforce approved authorizations for logical access to information and system resources by employing identity-based, role-based, and/or attribute-based security policies.
<VulnDiscussion>Successful authentication must not automatically give an entity access to an asset or security boundary. The lack of authoriz...Rule Medium Severity -

The BIG-IP Core implementation must be configured to enforce approved authorizations for controlling the flow of information within the network based on attribute- and content-based inspection of the source, destination, headers, and/or content of the communications traffic.
<VulnDiscussion>Information flow control regulates where information is allowed to travel within a network. The flow of all network traffic m...Rule Medium Severity -

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.
