Prose
Network management ports on the SAN fabric switches except those needed to support the operational commitments of the sites are not disabled.
Medium Severity
<VulnDiscussion>Enabled network management ports that are not required expose the SAN fabric switch and the entire network to unnecessary vulnerabilities. By disabling these unneeded ports the exposure profile of the device and network is diminished. The IAO/NSO will disable all network management ports on the SAN fabric switches except those needed to support the operational commitments of the sites.</VulnDiscussion><FalsePositives></FalsePositives><FalseNegatives></FalseNegatives><Documentable>false</Documentable><Mitigations></Mitigations><SeverityOverrideGuidance></SeverityOverrideGuidance><PotentialImpacts></PotentialImpacts><ThirdPartyTools></ThirdPartyTools><MitigationControl></MitigationControl><Responsibility>Information Assurance Officer</Responsibility><Responsibility>Switch Administrator</Responsibility><IAControls>DCBP-1</IAControls>
