  • The Juniper EX switches must be configured to use FIPS-validated Keyed-Hash Message Authentication Code (HMAC) to protect the integrity of nonlocal maintenance and diagnostic communications.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Unapproved mechanisms that are used for authentication to the cryptographic module are not verified and therefore cannot be r...

    Group
  • The Juniper EX switch must be configured to implement cryptographic mechanisms using a FIPS 140-2 approved algorithm to protect the confidentiality of remote maintenance sessions.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;This requires the use of secure protocols instead of their unsecured counterparts, such as SSH instead of telnet, SCP instead...

    Group
  • The Juniper EX switch must be configured to protect against known types of denial-of-service (DoS) attacks by employing organization-defined security safeguards.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;DoS is a condition when a resource is not available for legitimate users. When this occurs, the organization either cannot ac...

    <GroupDescription></GroupDescription>
    Group
  • The Juniper EX switch must be configured to generate log records for a locally developed list of auditable events.

    &lt;VulnDiscussion&gt;Auditing and logging are key components of any security architecture. Logging the actions of specific events provides a means...
