Configure the policy value for Computer Configuration >> Administrative Templates >> MSS (Legacy) >> "MSS: (DisableIPSourceRouting) IP source routing protection level (protects against packet spoofing)" to "Highest protection, source routing is completely disabled". This policy setting requires the installation of the MSS-Legacy custom templates included with the STIG package.

Pro Tips

Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS class id, if you view the page source) point to globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the link location and paste anywhere you need to talk unambiguously about these things.

You can obtain data about documents and items in other formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept: text/turtle or Accept: application/rdf+xml.
