Cisco IOS XE Switch RTR Security Technical Implementation Guide

Rules, Groups, and Values defined within the XCCDF Benchmark

  • The Cisco PE switch providing MPLS Layer 2 Virtual Private Network (L2VPN) services must be configured to authenticate targeted Label Distribution Protocol (LDP) sessions used to exchange virtual circuit (VC) information using a FIPS-approved message authentication code algorithm.

    <VulnDiscussion>LDP provides the signaling required for setting up and tearing down pseudowires (virtual circuits used to transport Layer 2 f...

  • The Cisco PE switch providing MPLS Virtual Private Wire Service (VPWS) must be configured to have the appropriate virtual circuit identification (VC ID) for each attachment circuit.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;VPWS is an L2VPN technology that provides a virtual circuit between two PE switches to forward Layer 2 frames between two cus...

  • The Cisco PE switch providing Virtual Private LAN Services (VPLS) must be configured to have all attachment circuits defined to the virtual forwarding instance (VFI) with the globally unique VPN ID assigned for each customer VLAN.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;VPLS defines an architecture that delivers Ethernet multipoint services over an MPLS network. Customer Layer 2 frames are for...

  • The Cisco PE switch must be configured to enforce the split-horizon rule for all pseudowires within a Virtual Private LAN Services (VPLS) bridge domain.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;A virtual forwarding instance (VFI) must be created on each participating PE switch for each customer VLAN using VPLS for car...

  • The Cisco PE switch providing Virtual Private LAN Services (VPLS) must be configured to have traffic storm control thresholds on CE-facing interfaces.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;A traffic storm occurs when packets flood a VPLS bridge, creating excessive traffic and degrading network performance. Traffi...

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.
