NET-SDN-002
Group -
Northbound API traffic received by the SDN controller must be authenticated using a FIPS-approved message authentication code algorithm.
The SDN controller determines how traffic should flow through physical and virtual network devices based on application profiles, network infrastructure resources, security policies, and business r...Rule High Severity -
NET-SDN-003
Group -
Access to the SDN management and orchestration systems must be authenticated using a FIPS-approved message authentication code algorithm.
The SDN controller receives network service requests from orchestration and management systems to deploy and configure network elements via the northbound API. In turn, the Northbound API presents ...Rule Medium Severity -
NET-SDN-004
Group -
Southbound API control plane traffic must traverse an out-of-band path or be encrypted using a FIPS-validated cryptographic module.
Southbound APIs such as OpenFlow provide the forwarding tables to network devices such as switches and routers, both physical and virtual (hypervisor-based). The SDN controllers use the concept of ...Rule High Severity -

Northbound API traffic must traverse an out-of-band path or be encrypted using a FIPS-validated cryptographic module.
The SDN controller receives network service requests from orchestration and management systems to deploy and configure network elements via the northbound API. In turn, the northbound API presents ...Rule High Severity -
NET-SDN-006
Group -
Southbound API management plane traffic for provisioning and configuring virtual network elements within the SDN infrastructure must be authenticated using a FIPS-approved message authentication code algorithm.
Management and orchestration systems within the SDN framework instantiate, deploy, and configure virtual network elements. These systems also define the virtual network topology by specifying the c...Rule Medium Severity -

NET-SDN-008
Group -
Southbound API management plane traffic for configuring SDN parameters on physical network elements must be authenticated using DOD PKI certificate-based authentication.
Physical SDN-enabled switches are dependent on the SDN controller for their forwarding tables as well as their configuration and service parameters. This information is provided to the switches via...Rule Medium Severity -
NET-SDN-009
Group -
Southbound API management plane traffic for configuring SDN parameters on physical network elements must be encrypted using a FIPS-validated cryptographic module.
Physical SDN-enabled switches are dependent on the SDN controller for their forwarding tables, as well as their configuration and service parameters. This information is provided to the switches vi...Rule Medium Severity -
NET-SDN-010
Group -
Physical SDN controllers and servers hosting SDN applications must reside within the management network with multiple paths that are secured by a firewall to inspect all ingress traffic.
Management and orchestration systems deploy and configure network devices such as switches and routers, both physical and virtual. SDN controllers are made aware of the deployments and are able to ...Rule Medium Severity -
NET-SDN-011
Group -
SDN-enabled routers and switches must provide link state information to the SDN controller to create new forwarding decisions for the network elements.
Southbound APIs such as OpenFlow provide the forwarding tables to network devices such as switches and routers. SDN controllers have an abstraction of the network topology based on discovery and pr...Rule Low Severity

The content of the drawer really is up to you. It could have form fields, definition lists, text lists, labels, charts, progress bars, etc. Spacing recommendation is 24px margins. You can put tabs in here, and can also make the drawer scrollable.
