  • The Session Border Controller (SBC) must be configured to validate the structure and validity of SIP and AS-SIP messages so that malformed messages or messages containing errors are dropped before action is taken on the contents.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Malformed SIP and AS_SIP messages, as well as messages containing errors, could be an indication that an adversary is attempt...

  • The Multifunction Soft Switch (MFSS) must be configured to synchronize with at minimum a paired MFSS and/or others so that each may serve as a backup for the other when signaling with its assigned Local Session Controller (LSC), thus improving the reliability and survivability of the DISN IPVS network.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;MFSSs are critical to the operation of the DISN NIPRNet IPVS network. They broker the establishment of calls between enclaves...

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.
