The HP FlexFabric Switch must protect an enclave connected to an Alternate Gateway by using an inbound filter that only permits packets with destination addresses within the sites address space. An XCCDF Rule
The HP FlexFabric Switch must protect an enclave connected to an Alternate Gateway by using an inbound filter that only permits packets with destination addresses within the sites address space.
High Severity
<VulnDiscussion>Enclaves with Alternate Gateway (AG) connections must take additional steps to ensure there is no compromise on the enclave network or NIPRNet. Without verifying the destination address of traffic coming from the site's AG, the perimeter router could be routing transit data from the Internet into the NIPRNet. This could also make the perimeter router vulnerable to a DoS attack as well as provide a backdoor into the NIPRNet. The DoD enclave must ensure the ingress filter applied to external interfaces on a perimeter router connecting to an AG is secure through filters permitting packets with a destination address belonging to the DoD enclave's address block.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility></Responsibility><IAControls></IAControls>
