The HP FlexFabric Switch must retain the Standard Mandatory DoD Notice and Consent Banner on the screen until the administrator acknowledges the usage conditions and takes explicit actions to log on for further access.

An XCCDF Rule

Description

<VulnDiscussion>The banner must be acknowledged by the administrator prior to allowing the administrator access to the HP FlexFabric Switch. This provides assurance that the administrator has seen the message and accepted the conditions for access. If the consent banner is not acknowledged by the administrator, DoD will not be in compliance with system use notifications required by law. To establish acceptance of the network administration policy, a click-through banner at management session logon is required. The device must prevent further activity until the administrator executes a positive action to manifest agreement by clicking on a box indicating "OK".</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>

Note: In this example, the percentage sign (%) is the starting and ending character of the text argument. Entering the percentage sign after the text quits the header command. Because it is the starting and ending character, the percentage sign is not included in the banner.
