The Arista network device must limit the number of concurrent sessions to an organization-defined number for each administrator account and/or administrator account type.
Device management includes the ability to control the number of administrators and management sessions that manage a device. Limiting the number of allowed administrators and sessions per administr...Rule Medium Severity -
The Arista network device must enforce approved authorizations for controlling the flow of management information within the network device based on information flow control policies.
A mechanism to detect and prevent unauthorized communication flow must be configured or provided as part of the system design. If management information flow is not enforced based on approved autho...Rule Medium Severity -
The Arista network device must be configured to audit all administrator activity.
This requirement supports non-repudiation of actions taken by an administrator and is required in order to maintain the integrity of the configuration management process. All configuration changes ...Rule Medium Severity -
The Arista network device must be configured to prohibit the use of all unnecessary and/or nonsecure functions, ports, protocols, and/or services.
To prevent unauthorized connection of devices, unauthorized transfer of information, or unauthorized tunneling (i.e., embedding of data types within data types), organizations must disable unused o...Rule High Severity -
The Arista network device must terminate all network connections associated with a device management session at the end of the session, or the session must be terminated after 10 minutes of inactivity except to fulfill documented and validated mission requirements.
Terminating an idle session within a short time period reduces the window of opportunity for unauthorized personnel to take control of a management session enabled on the console or console port th...Rule High Severity -
The Arista network device must be configured to synchronize internal system clocks using redundant authenticated time sources.
The loss of connectivity to a particular authoritative time source will result in the loss of time synchronization (free-run mode) and increasingly inaccurate time stamps on audit events and other ...Rule Medium Severity -
The Arista network devices must use FIPS-validated Keyed-Hash Message Authentication Code (HMAC) to protect the integrity of remote maintenance sessions.
Unapproved mechanisms used for authentication to the cryptographic module are not verified and therefore cannot be relied upon to provide confidentiality or integrity, and DOD data may be compromis...Rule High Severity -
The network device must be configured to conduct backups of system level information contained in the information system when changes occur.
System-level information includes default and customized settings and security attributes, including ACLs that relate to the network device configuration, as well as software required for the execu...Rule Medium Severity -
The Arista network device must obtain its public key certificates from an appropriate certificate policy through an approved service provider.
For user certificates, each organization obtains certificates from an approved, shared service provider, as required by OMB policy. For federal agencies operating a legacy public key infrastructure...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.
