Vulnerability discussion

Using standardized authentication protocols such as RADIUS, TACACS+, and Kerberos, an authentication server provides centralized and robust authentication services for the management of network components. In order to control access to the servers as well as monitor traffic to them, the authentication servers should only be connected to the management network.

Check content

Review the network topology to determine what network they are connected to. Verify that they are not dual-homed by physically inspecting the device’s LAN connection

Fix text

Connect the authentication servers to only the management network.

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.
