Cisco IOS XR Router RTR Security Technical Implementation Guide
Rules, Groups, and Values defined within the XCCDF Benchmark
-
The Cisco MPLS router must be configured to synchronize IGP and LDP to minimize packet loss when an IGP adjacency is established prior to LDP peers completing label exchange.
Packet loss can occur when an IGP adjacency is established and the router begins forwarding packets using the new adjacency before the LDP label exchange completes between the peers on that link. P...Rule Low Severity -
The Cisco PE router must be configured to have each VRF with the appropriate Route Distinguisher (RD).
An RD provides uniqueness to the customer address spaces within the MPLS L3VPN infrastructure. The concept of the VPN-IPv4 and VPN-IPv6 address families consists of the RD prepended before the IP a...Rule Medium Severity -
The Cisco PE router providing MPLS Virtual Private Wire Service (VPWS) must be configured to have the appropriate pseudowire ID for each attachment circuit.
VPWS is an L2VPN technology that provides a virtual circuit (aka pseudowire) between two PE routers to forward Layer 2 frames between two customer-edge routers or switches through an MPLS-enabled I...Rule High Severity -
The Cisco PE router must be configured to enforce the split-horizon rule for all pseudowires within a Virtual Private LAN Services (VPLS) bridge domain.
A virtual forwarding instance (VFI) must be created on each participating PE router for each customer VLAN using VPLS for carrier Ethernet services. The VFI specifies the VPN ID of a VPLS domain, t...Rule Low Severity -
The Cisco PE router providing Virtual Private LAN Services (VPLS) must be configured to have traffic storm control thresholds on CE-facing interfaces.
A traffic storm occurs when packets flood a VPLS bridge, creating excessive traffic and degrading network performance. Traffic storm control prevents VPLS bridge disruption by suppressing traffic w...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.
