Remediation - Manual Procedure

This requirement is not applicable for the DODIN Backbone. It is only applicable if the OOBM gateway router is not a dedicated device to the OOBM backbone.

Step 1: Configure the ACL to only allow traffic to the route processor from the OOBM backbone and the NOC.

R4(config)#ip access-list extended TRAFFIC_FROM_NOC
R4(config-ext-nacl)#permit ip 10.11.1.0 0.255.255.255 host 10.11.1.8
